The youngest resident of the world-renowned TV Lounge at 21, Detroit's Loren has been devoutly DJing ever since their parents surprised them with belt-driven turntables and a two-channel mixer at 17. They tumbled head-first down the techno rabbit hole when they heard Punisher play a house party at 16, and fell deeper yet at an Interdimensional Transmissions party on their 18th birthday.

​

Influenced by the city's raw and desolate landscape, and the unparalleled openness and energy of its crowds, nothing brings them more joy than getting lost in their own internal world during a set, and seeing those on the dance floor doing the same. From techno and house, to wonky acid and breaks, Loren never hesitates to push the boundaries with their selections; embracing the musical diversity characteristic of the legacy and lineage of the “Midwestern DJs” that came before them, they shy away from over classification, and remain a true chameleon of sound.

​

The co-founder of queer party series HUNNI at TV Lounge and Spot Lite monthly Duology, Loren has four appearances at Movement Electronic Music Festival, as well as performances at BPM Festival, Smart Bar, Honcho Campout, Where Are My Keys, The Bunker, Club der Visionaere, and Golden Gate under their belt. 2024 was a watershed year for the artist, performing twice at Panorama Bar, including the infamous Christopher Street Day celebration, as well as Resolute's 30-hour New Years Eve & Day party, and both the famed Meta Ta Physika and Marble Bar closing party over Movement weekend. They continue to play regularly at Detroit's top underground destinations year-round.

​

Able to adapt to any time and place, but known for their grimy, extended late-night sets, Loren lives to connect through their music with dance floors all over the world. They let the music do the talking, while continuously upping the ante, proving just how far passion, hard work, and authenticity can take you.
