Tyler Hill

Tyler Hill “Purveyor of deep, infectious dance grooves and a feel-good atmosphere.” That’s how Tyler describes himself as a DJ. Never afraid to go too deep, his emotive musical selections are his own therapy. Having grown up on his uncle’s eclectic combination of funk music (Stevie Wonder, Morris Day), European electronica (DepecheMode, Tangerine Dream), synth-infused 80s music (Depeche Mode, Gary Numan)… all which became infused with his own love for both hip-hop and electronic game music, Tyler ended up with quite a mixed spectrum of musical influence. Today, this translates into sets where he picks apart and infuses together all the pieces of this music that he loves best; beautiful synth work, ethereal backdrops, brooding basslines, and occasional vocal hooks… all on top of a pronounced foot-shuffling house beat. A very active member in his local community, Tyler is no stranger to the ups-and-downs of the Toronto music scene. Though he loves playing in nightclubs and hosting special events, his love for music goes beyond the spectrum of mixing tunes. As a dj, producer, and promoter, he has found plenty of ways to express himself musically with his new promotional company Fused Entertainment. Recently, Tyler has taken on a new venture with the launch of his first record label, Wiggle Room Records with his long time friend and Manager, Takin Nateghi. He got his start when he met friend and now Djing Partner, Christina Barroness at Club 120 who helped open the doors for his career. Today they can be found playing as +ONE (plus one) at their residency at Wiggle Room. “For me, it’s all about mood and a deep and dark hypnotic groove… that definitely will “gonna make you dance and gonna make you move” regardless of the genre, tempo, style, or when it was released. “ - Tyler Hill
