Justin Aulis Long

Justin Aulis Long is a Chicago native and longstanding resident at the city’s legendary Smartbar; a seasoned vet who, as a teen, studiously recorded mix shows off WBMX while a self-identified “skate punk/industrial acid house mutant”.

Intriguingly, he’s also a practicing chaos magician and visual artist, which perhaps explains Long’s sets are versed in the underground of Chicago as translated through a murky, mystical lens. For some, he’ll be better known as one half of L.I.E.S. affiliated project Circling Vultures, alongside Ken Zawacki, a project that skirts the outer reaches of machine music. In his exclusive Crack Mix, Long flexes his love of sonic deviance – exemplified most clearly in his inclusion of Coil’s scatological masterpiece Another Brown World. Raunchy and revelling in subversive sounds – think EBM, acid and industrial – this set explores the most mutant corners of the dancefloor.
