MICHAEL THE LION

Michael The Lion is the latest and greatest pseudonym of long-time Philadelphia DJ and producer DJ Apt One. Michael’s disco productions for internationally renowned labels Soul Clap and Razor-N-Tape are staples of DJ sets by the world’s biggest names. His collaborations with Amy Douglas (DFA/Defected) are chief among these underground hits. Michael adapts the trademark sound he has developed for over a decade - live instruments sitting seamlessly with sampled grooves to create organic, classic textures. The Lion sound is always funky, always strong and always ready for the floor.

Michael was a part of the multi-genre style of DJing that catapulted his adopted Philadelphia to the pinnacle of the DJ world in the early 2000s. His years of seasoning as a DJ have seen him play all styles imaginable all across North America and Europe. He’s officially remixed acts as varied as Wiz Khalifa, Gregor Salto, Midnight Magic and Harold Melvin & The Blue Notes. As a part of the duo RCMP, his work foreshadowed the emergence of Nu-Disco before the genre even had a name. Now, as Michael The Lion, he is pushing the boundaries of funk in modern dance music.
