DJ Casper, creator of the iconic and ubiquitous Cha Cha Slide, has died at 58 The Chicago native, born Willie Perry Jr., wrote the song as an exercise track for his nephew in the late 1990s before it exploded in popularity and became a worldwide hit.
The musical mind behind the Cha Cha Slide — the ubiquitous turn-of-the-millennium dance hit played at celebrations and in gyms across the world — has died.
Born Willie Perry Jr., the Chicago native originally recorded a version of the Cha Cha Slide in the late 1990s as an aerobic exercise for his nephew, who was working as a personal trainer at Bally Total Fitness.

Casper said the track quickly took off and he got requests to perform it at local clubs and parties, according to WBEZ. Chicago's WGCI-FM radio station aired the song in 2000 before it was eventually picked up by Universal Records.
I really didn't expect the 'Cha Cha Slide' to do what it did, Casper said in an interview with Chicago's PBS station WTTW in 2018. Everything hit all at once, Universal Records contact me, they wanted me to go on a tour and it started getting real crazy.
According to Pitchfork, Casper composed a new version that year initially called Casper Slide Part 2, which became the Cha Cha Slide that caught fire in the U.S. and hit No. 1 on the charts in the United Kingdom in 2004.

From humble workout track to global phenomenon, the Cha Cha Slide endures to this day as a staple at weddings, birthday parties, school phys ed classes and more.
In the song, Casper calls out easy-to-follow steps that invite dancers to slide to the left and right, criss cross, Charlie Brown and — of course — cha cha real smooth.
Casper told ABC7 that he was diagnosed with kidney and liver cancers in 2016 and lost about 60 pounds as a result, but he never lost the upbeat attitude that pervaded his most famous song.

Anybody that's going through cancer, know that you have cancer and cancer does not have you, Casper told the station. So, keep on doing the 'Cha Cha Slide.' America, land of renewal, constantly at the heart of turmoil. If it has become the center of world attention on a plethora of subjects, we particularly benefit from its musical youth which has been constantly renewed since Columbus set foot there. Today, we explore his essential interpretation of electronic music and American DJs: these craftsmen who keep a flame alive on the Dancefloors from LA to New York. Here is the famous American DJ list not to be missed.
The American DJ who is worth 95 million dollars. At various times in his career, Aoki has been one of the highest paid EDM artists in North America. But money doesn't make the DJ. An artist is, beyond his tax return, a story. That of multiple collaborations that improve the sounds that our ears devour.
Steve Aoki is an electro house DJ who does not hesitate to wear several hats. Nominated for the Grammys, he is also at the head of his own label, Label Dim Mark Records.

Since his collaboration with Duran Duran, the stars have seized on his remixes and his talent as a producer for their tracks. Aoki isn't too much of an American hip-hop DJ, but has remixed many artists and bands, including The Jackson 5, Drake, Kanye West, Eminem, Lil Wayne, Mike Posner, Girls Generation , All American Rejects, Refused, The Killers, Bassnectar, Lenny Kravitz, Bloc Party, Snoop Dogg, Robin Thicke, SPA, Kid Cudi, Fërnando Oviedo, Chester French, BTS and Peaches.
You know him for his Grammy and his Label Dim Mark Records, but he also has a penchant for pastry throwing! Indeed, Steve Aoki throws cake in the face of the fans during his DJ sets... For this funny committed artist, it is a tool of expression. So how do you get a slice in the face? The way I choose who gets it is usually whoever shows me the most energy and who screams for it.
While the origins of dubstep certainly belong to us Europeans, Bassnectar's deadly mix creates a beat with the unbridled rhythm of drums and bass that belongs only to him. He has established a complete movement around his electronic music and remains an artist who delivers some of the most comprehensive live performances in the universe, for his American listeners. And if you are not in front of his electronic scene to listen to his latest album, his haircut is worth the detour!

Cajmere or Green Velvet are Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde of techno music. At the dawn of his career, Curtis Jones timidly entered acid techno with his track Percolator in 1992, which became a classic of the genre. Cajmere parades a neon green Mohawk and becomes Green Velvet. With that Bowie style, it spits enough techno to make people dance all night long with club music that puts you in a trance.
I got you on that one! Well, I don't like having a bad tongue, so I'm going to give the floor to a People magazine: “Paris Hilton, probably in contact with her talented friend Jean-Roch or perhaps on the advice of her ex-boyfriend DJ Afrojack, got it into her head that she could mix. Undoubtedly one of her innumerable whims that the starlet was unable to repress” (Pure People). So if you're not happy to see her here, go tell Wikipedia or Forbes to change her bio.
House music wouldn't be what it is today without what came out of Derrick Carter's studio. American electro DJ born in LA, but raised in Chicago, Derrick took the foundation that DJ Frankie Knuckles built and shook it. Thus, he produces original remixes and traxes that pay homage to the roots of dance music (disco, soul, funk). As a selector for prestigious labels, he has made a lasting mark on the Chicago scene.
Do You Mind (dj Khaled Song)
Born in Chicago, Colette is a hard worker! A classically trained singer, she has been distributing deep rhythms on the turntables for more than 20 years. The soprano is a member of the all-female DJ collective SuperJane (along with Dayhota, DJ Heather and Lady D). An act of war that consolidates his contribution to the history of dance music. Eclectic, like any good DJ, she recorded albums, hosted a radio show and launched her own label, Candy Talk, on which she released her third house-inspired album, whose sounds confirm that she is an essential electro artist.
The music genre drum'n'bass, is not the forte of the United States. One of the few sonic exceptions is Dieselboy or Damian Higgins for his parents. He made a name for himself on the Philadelphia night scene in the late 90s with his song Invid which attracted him to the favor of the general public. You could say it's in his blood, Dieselboy comes from a long artistic line. His father Bertie was the source of a success in 1981 with the pop song Key Largo and if we go back to his genealogy a little further, we find the German novelist Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, author of The Alder King.
They will not play on fun radio or nrj music. When Sharam and Dubfire first immigrated to the United States, their host city of Washington, D.C. wasn't quite a music hotbed for nightclub dancing. But now, it wouldn't be surprising if a few members of Congress listened to Deep Dish as they left the House of Representatives. Their pop remixes have made them essential artists in the world of clubbing. Grammy-nominated with their 2005 album George Is On, it has stood the test of time becoming classics. An amicable divorce allows the duo to take some distance from the spotlight and focus a bit on their respective careers. They are now back and chain the tours, to the delight of the Americans and those who are lucky enough to be able to go there.

If there is a holy place, a home for dance music pilgrims, it's Detroit in Michigan. Derrick May, Robert Hood, Carl Craig... Few cities have proven to be so rich in American electro music legends. In this playground full of boys, Magda has become an empress. A unique touch on the mixing board allowed him to create a universe as complex as it is fantastic that combines emotive techno and deafening bass lines. Sets that opened the doors to the Berlin techno scene where she currently resides. But Americans and their patriotism will not let us forget its origins. A female DJ paving the way for future colleagues!
A shadow hangs over Josh Davis, aka the American hip hop DJ DJ Shadow. Hailing from the sunny bays of California, he lives in the future. His albums like _Entroducing … are upsetting. He explores the boundaries of electronic music to expand them. He takes us on this sonic odyssey with complex hip-hop rhythms. His mastery of mixing and production technology make DJ Shadow a reliable ship's captain with whom it would
