Biography
Juan Manuel Chaparro aka Dojorok, is a hip-hop and electronic producer/ DJ from Omaha, Nebraska. Taking influences from all musical aspects, he was heavily influenced by his father 's guitar lessons and old Spanish record collection. Intrigued by the record collection and digging culture, Juan soon began spending countless hours in local record shops. He discovered the aggressive sound of drum & bass and ragga jungle. Eventually venturing into a more down tempo sound, with influences of the likes of Prefuse 73 and Aphex Twin. Now with a more mellowed and calmer approach, he continues to make music, keeping his intricate and detailed sound.
Chaparro is particularly known for his unique combination of hip hop, glitch, dub, ethnic, heavy sampling and melodic arrangements, which has caught the ears of hip hop head and electronic music fans alike. Regardless, he continues with his own take on making music, utilizing all audio resources.
"It's kind of rare to hear DJ's drop dubstep & glitch tunes in a lot of clubs in the city and even more rare to find dedicated producers. Wobble Family's Juan Chaparro aka Dojorok has been hard at work making a change in this field. I've had my ears set on this guy's music for a while this is an artist that you CANNOT pass up…"
"Influenced by every day life experiences, Dojorok comes from seemingly nowhere with intricately layered beats and raw emotion along with each track. Ranging techniques make them appealing to a variety, yet continuously remaining unique and one of a kind. Far beyond "noise" Dojorok produces pure music for those who understand the power it has on all levels of life."
