    Playing techno in public since '95, Ken Meier picked up his first pair of decks at the impressionable age of fourteen. Alongside his older brother and long-time collaborator, Karl, Ken cut his teeth at various parties in and around the midwest, including festival lineups for Drop Bass and Black Nation. While living in Chicago, Ken and Karl worked at the legendary Gramaphone Records, and hosted weekly shows on Chicago radio stations such as WNUR and WHPK. The two also organized parties under the name Fear of Music. These events featured sets from Surgeon, Anthony Shakir, BMG, John Roberts, James Ruskin, Spencer Kincy, and Function, among others. Currently, he operates the Fear of Music podcast and occasional event series, based in New York.
