After being away from the DJ game for approximately 20 years, Luis “DJ LOL” Lopez returns to share his passion with the world – Techno music! Growing up in NYC, he was greatly influenced by the early generations of Hip Hop, 80’s pop, and Freestyle sounds. Additionally, he studied music for 6 years throughout high school and college. “Music is in my blood.” Plus, he was a DJ for 10 years. “I was a Technics 1200 and Gemini mixer guy. My passion was mixing sounds together.” Intimidated by the new technology, he stayed away from mixing for many years. “As many people in my generation, technology filters slowly.” As a Father’s Day present, his daughter got him a DJ controller…and the rest is history.
“I connected to Techno after watching the first 5 minutes of Blade.” From this point on, he has carefully followed the music of Carl Cox, Pig and Dan, Carlo Lio, Avicii, and John Digweed."
