Please tell us about yourself.

International dvj Chang (aka cHaNg BaNg) began his career in the USA over two decades ago. He held the longest residency of any dj at the famous Gainesville nightclub, Simons! Chang dj’d with artists like Laurent Garnier, Felix Da Housecat, Deep Dish, Green Velvet, Richie Hawtin, John Aquaviva, Mark Farina, John Digweed, and Danny Tenaglia. However, lets not focus too far in the past.

Dvj Chang has never constituted to one sound. He encompasses a plethora of music. Born in Manhattan, NY. Raised in NY and Miami, FL. He has sought out such diverse obscure sounds that he excites and entices his fans with the unknown and unexpected.

Chang has played at Sundance Film Festivals. He has been a dj for New Line Cinema and Miramax. He spun at celebrity parties with guests such as Angelina Jolie, and Samuel L Jackson.

Chang’s free spirit has not only led him to travel playing throughout the world. His free spirit has enabled him to go beyond music adventuring to collaborate music and film. That is how he became a pioneer dvj! San Francisco is where he had his first T.V. show, House Nation, a show interviewing various artists and discussions on the artist’s videos and music. His ventures have surpassed the borders of the USA. Dvj Chang’s talents brought him to Bahrain, Austria, Lebanon, Poland, and the famous Cocoon Club in Frankfurt, Germany.

Chang is currently in the States to help produce dvj music video projects with Lifervisions. He has played at events such as Disturbing the Peace where he was interviewed by HBO. He helped to produce The Connext project sponsored by MTV. You can listen to him on Digital Vinyl Radio hosted in Athens, Greece weekly or see him at Project Ahmnisa events spreading musical art to today’s underprivileged youth.


He is the resident dvj/founder/promoter for CLIQUE at The Kennedy (Tampa, Fl.) CLIQUE is an exclusive nite to offer the latest underground Indie rock, electro and live bands. Chang shares residency at The Kennedy with other djs such as Monk from Rabbit in the Moon, and Jask from Soulfuric Records. Chang also has residency at Cheap Boutique (Tampa, Fl.). The only metro hot spot for music, dining, lounging, and networking.
