BIO:Born and raised in Stockholm, sonofadj grew up listening to house music daily. "In my house, there is only house music," his dad screamed at the wall of vinyl while preparing his next set. The son noticed, but shortly returned to solving math problems—which seemed more interesting at the time.It wasn't until his thirties, after nine years of partying in Stockholm's underground scene, that sonofadj decided to go from consumer to contributor by learning to DJ. As an unemployed man in peak health, he put time and effort into producing solid mixtapes. A few months later, he found himself on the decks during private parties hosted by his burner friends.

SON OF WHO?Son of a DJ is the son of a man who played professionally for 20+ years under the name DJ Grandaddy“You’re gifted mathematically, not musically," Dad said when I was a kid. Being a math teacher by day and a professional DJ by night at the best nightclubs in Stockholm (resident at Berns & Café Opera for 20 years), he was qualified to make an assessment. And he was right. Ten years later, I decided it was time to walk uphill by teaching myself how to DJ. In doing so, I went from a party consumer to a contributor. This felt groovy. I walked in my father’s footsteps—not through apprenticeship, but fueled by a desire to prove him wrong. While my dad did not teach me how to DJ, he gave me my taste in music—and taste is what matters most. Thanks dad.
