The Checkup

Berlin-based The Checkup has been in his element in recent years and has become synonymous with energetic house sounds of old and new, maintaining a soulful outlook and positive storytelling in his DJ sets, both of which he has received global acknowledgment for.

While traveling around the world, he finds himself on a never-ending search for rare 90s house records to uncover gems of the past. The last couple of years were notably the finest year to date as he toured South America twice, played in European hotspots like London, Paris, Amsterdam, Madrid, Barcelona, and Tbilisi, and landed frequent action in Berlin at the likes of Sisyphos, Watergate, About Blank, and Wilde Renate, the home of the Paradise Garage Hommage parties for which he holds a residency and books talent from the house music community in Berlin.

He started off 2024 with a tour in Brazil in some of the finest clubs like Surreal Park and D-Edge to name a few.
His dynamic US house-influenced sound has also seen him showcase his music on legendary labels such as Defected, Nervous Records, Large Music, Madhouse, Toy Tonics, Meta, and Twirl to name a few.

In 2023, some key releases dropped on Catz N Dogz “Step” records, his own imprint “Heattraxx” on vinyl and digital, as well as an Ep signed to Riva Starr’s “Snatch”. 2024 has some exciting plans with further release on Snatch, Kerri Chandler’s “Kaoz Theory” and many more in the pipeline.
