Intelligent, intense, complex: Descriptors for DJ Evolve and the music he makes. Incorporating drumset, piano, turntables, beatbox, and guitar, DJ Evolve texturizes his sound. With a substantial body of recordings and national gigs to his credit, Evolve continues to spin regularly in Tucson while working on music for theater and film. His sound is elegant and dark, dramatically anthemic. Arguably among the most talented of Tucson-based spinners, Evolve is the anti-egomaniac.
