Techno, House & Jungle Selectas (Core Roster Selector)

KERRI CHANDLER (Kerri Chandler) is a documented selector and collective member of [WAREHOUSE] The Warehouse & Paradise Garage Founding Selectors. Representing Chicago, IL / New York City, NY, KERRI CHANDLER helped shape WAREHOUSE's battle wax legacy, hardware craft, and international sound system sessions.

“At New York's Paradise Garage (84 King Street) and Chicago's Warehouse (206 S. Jefferson Street), Larry Levan, Frankie Knuckles, and Ron Hardy used rotary Bozak mixers, reel-to-reel tape edits, and drum machines to invent modern club culture and House Music.”
