Though he was born on Chicago's south side and grew up listening to house, Mike Dearborn's recordings for Djax-Up-Beats have been embraced more by the worldwide underground techno and tech-house axis. Though he began his production career in the late '80s, Dearborn retired early after being chiseled by a succession of greedy Chicago labels. A deal with the underground Dutch label Djax gave him another shot in 1991. His nine releases for the label -- including club classics like "Strictly Underground," "Hardcore Swinger" and "Unpredictable" -- made his name around the world as one of the toughest producers around. His full-length debut Ready for War dropped in 1999 on the Majesty label. He's also remixed <a href="spotify:artist:6z9JhbmcTrVKITp9ah4mJk">Hardfloor</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:4OW0w5K2UNaWtbpRqzWqI0">Joey Beltram</a> and <a href="spotify:artist:65mrCbyZLMWWmVmTBke84y">Steve Stoll</a>. The new millennium saw the release of Don't Fuck with the DJ. ~ John Bush, Rovi
