    Luminary DJ/Producer Eric Estornel, also known as Maceo Plex, started his musical journey back in 1993, conjuring mixes of techno, electro, and, house music that quickly gained him great popularity in the early rave scene as one of its most revered tastemakers.

    With a career spanning over two decades, he’s been a key part of the electronic club and festival mainframe, as well as an Ibiza and Miami mainstay. Nowadays he is simply one of dance music’s biggest names—a DJ, producer and also the owner of label Ellum.

    He’s one of the few producers out there with multiple artistic alter egos, on the decks around the globe as Maceo Plex, Maetrik, Mariel Ito and occasionally Estornel. Although as of more recently he mentioned that they are all starting to blend into one, while giving fans the opportunity to hear a bit of each alias in the flesh. Maceo Plex will play under that name next weekend here in Los Angeles, at El Pueblo De Los Angeles in the heart of DTLA.

    And we are thrilled to welcome one of the underground’s most forward-thinking imprints to KCRW with an exclusive guest mix on Metropolis.

The founder of Stones Throw Records favors the underdog, moving through hip-hop, funk, soul, electronic music, oddball records, rarities, and sounds that resist easy categorization.

        • Henry Rollins

          A mix of all kinds, from all over and all time. Henry Rollins treats the radio as a place for serious musical exploration, bringing punk, experimental music, jazz, global sounds, independent releases, archival discoveries, and whatever else demands to be heard into the same restless orbit. The selections can travel across decades and continents in minutes, driven less by genre than an insatiable appetite for records and discovery. It’s radio for listeners willing to follow the music wherever it goes. Tune in Mondays from 10pm to midnight and Fridays from 8 to 10pm.

        • SiLVA

          A dance-forward mix that moves freely between house, disco, boogie, electronic music, global club sounds, and plenty in between. SiLVA’s sets are built for Saturday night, mixing new tracks, classics, edits, and deep cuts without getting boxed into one genre. The emphasis is on movement, surprise, and keeping the energy alive from one record to the next. Tune in to SiLVA Saturday evenings from 6 to 8pm.
