Biography
-
Born In
Chicago, Cook County, Illinois, United States
Flufftronix (aka Michael Lasday) is a Chicago-born, Philadelphia-based DJ, producer and party starter. A master of contrasts, Fluff is adept at dispensing face-crushing soulmelters (quoth Lil Jon on Fluff’s track Filthy Angels, “That shit just make you wanna punch the shit outta some motherfucker!”), sensual luvstep grooves and everything in between.
Fluff cut his teeth DJing in the sleepy college town of Bloomington IN, but it didn’t take long before he’d transcended the boundaries of both Indiana and the midwest. He orchestrated a six week US/Canada tour with Alaskan wunderkid Curtis Vodka, released a celebrated mix for Brooklyn’s streetwear label Mishka, and garnered radio play from Mark Ronson, Kissy Sell Out, and Annie Mac with his ghetto house edit of Dead Prez’s “Hip Hop”.
Michael moved to Philadelphia in 2008 and hit the ground running, co-founding Subdivision, a collective based in Philly, Pittsburgh, and Manchester (UK) dedicated to spreading the heavy bass sound. In not even a year their events became the go-to destination for dubstep and heavy bass music - Philly’s parties have been host to Benga, Rusko, Starkey, Stenchman, Joker, Bok-Bok, L-Vis 1990, Kingdom, The Widdler, Joe Nice, and Toadally Krossed Out amongst others.
Fluff recently teamed up with Dirty South Joe to produce the Luvstep (<3step) Mix for Mad Decent, a genre-defining and prejudice-shattering collection the sexiest, smoothest dubstep tracks in existence, including the timeless Flufftronix remix of Passion Pit - The Reeling.
