In November 2012, Brandon Levinson and Jerry Kurty teamed up to form the Chicago-based DJ/producer duo, X5IGHT. With several years of producing and DJing individually under their belts, they were able to successfully join forces and combine their diverse musical influences. Though they mainly focus on producing electro/progressive-house, Brandon and Jerry have also dabbled with several other genres including drum & bass, trance, minimal, and trap. While still finding their sound, they hope to put their own unique spin on each release to show that their music cannot be defined under one exclusive genre.
Like the productions, their performances are vastly diverse, as they like to experiment with various BPMs throughout their sets. Rather than making the crowd feel one emotion, they try to take each audience on a different musical journey. One moment you may find yourself fist-pumping…jumping around like a maniac, and the next minute you’re in tears. With X5IGHT, you must expect the unexpected. Isn’t that the beauty of dance music?
Both members are still full-time college students and must dedicate their spare time to producing and expanding the X5IGHT brand. Even though they attend college in different states – Jerry at Eastern Illinois University and Brandon at Indiana University, they still manage to finish numerous tracks due to their “production sessions” over Skype.
With the release of original tracks, remixes, and vocal edits, X5IGHT has recognition and support from numerousEDM publications (The EDM Network, Elektro Daily, This Song Slaps, Your EDM, & Good Music All Day to name a few), and fellow artists such as Tiesto, Krewella, Danny Howard (SiriusXM – BPM Radio), The Chainsmokers, Pegboard Nerds, & James Egbert. Get “X5IGHTED” because this duo is just getting started!
