Politik is an American-born DJ and producer hailing from Los Angeles, CA. An esteemed sound selector, he has built a name for himself by harnessing his eclectic taste and versatility behind the decks. Over the past decade, he has been a permanent fixture at top nightclubs throughout the U.S., including multiple high-profile residencies at Las Vegas mega-clubs Zouk, XS, and Marquee.
As a young aspiring DJ growing up in Los Angeles, he cut his teeth in the nightlife scene by sneaking into exclusive Hollywood nightclubs while still in high school. Exposure to groundbreaking DJs such as DJ AM, Mark Ronson, and Z-Trip, introduced him to the technical craft of multi-genre or "mash up" style of deejaying.
L.A.’s burgeoning electro scene and culture shifting dance parties, such as Steve Aoki’s “Dim Mak Tuesdays,'' and DJ AM’s “Banana Split,” played a pivotal role in the development of Politik’s energetic style and versatility. Weekly guest sets from artists such as Daft Punk, Justice, and MSTRKRFT, would shape the sonic boundaries in his own sets.
Staying true to these roots has become an integral part of his creative process, and by injecting his well-rounded perspective into his own productions, he has cultivated a polished sound that flows freely between the worlds of dance and pop.
