Since teaming up as a production duo in 2003, Chris Santiago and Tim Bush have dropped numerous EP's and remixes on some of the most well respected labels around including Potty Mouth, Om, Ultra, and have generated a significant following in the process. Their unique sound and flawless DJ sets have helped to establish Santiago & Bushido as one of the premier acts in dance music today. Their track 'Head Trick' was one of the true dance anthems of 2008, a major crossover success receiving play and charting from many of the globe's top DJ's such as Moby, DJ Tiesto, Switch, Armin Van Buren, and Diplo. Head Trick was the # 1 most downloaded song in January 2008, and the #8 most downloaded of the entire year on Beatport.com, the world's top online site for electronic music. Santiago & Bushido followed the success of Head Trick with a number of critically acclaimed releases and remixes including a massive remix of Kaskade's Billboard # 1 hit single Move For Me, a reworking of Larry Tee's Louis Vuitton, and their original single Can't Be Wrong which has been licensed to numerous complications such as Ministry of Sound. In addition to belting out club tracks Santiago and Bushido have worked with Om recording artist Colette on her artist album "Push" for which they wrote and produced multiple songs including the album's single, "If," which was licensed for an episode of Real World for "MTV" and can also be purchased as a ring tone from Verizon. Having been intimately involved with music his entire, life Bushido picked up his first pair of turntables and sampler on his 16th birthday and immediately went to work mixing, sampling, and cutting up any piece of vinyl he could get his hands on. His carefully crafted DJ sets caught the ears of some of Chicago's nightlife elite and he soon found himself playing all over the city. Tim spent his days working at Chicago Recording Company, sharing the same recording space with the likes of R.Kelly and Smashing Pumpkins among others. By working alongside some of Chicago's most well respected engineers at CRC, Bushido honed his engineering and production prowess until opportunity knocked. While Bushido was mastering his craft, Santiago was working his way up the Chicago's nightlife hierarchy. Within one year of playing live gigs, he secured a Friday night residency at Zentra Nightclub's House Arrest, and within a year he would be playing to Chicago's most musically educated and up-for-it partiers as an exclusive resident at "World's Best Dance Club", Smartbar, joining the halls of dance icons that have enjoyed similar slots there (including other current residents Kaskade and Justin Long). As DJ's, Santiago & Bushido draw influence from their Chicago house background and apply harder and heavier elements to their sound. Santiago & Bushido are regularly headlining and appearing at some of the best parties in the US and beyond including Avalon in LA, Decibel Festival in Seattle, and Bed in Miami. Recent shows have them playing along side some of the hottest talent around today such as Deadmau5, Crookers, and Kaskade. Their 2009 dates include a multi-city tour in Australia, multiple trips to Europe, and regular gigs in North America.̸Coming Soon The Prarie Cartel - Beautiful Shadow (S&B Rmx) - Long Nights, Impossible Odds Larry Tee - Louie Vuitton (S&B Rmx) - Ultra Santiago & Bushido - Runnin Round EP - Potty Mouth Music Original Work Can't Be Wront EP - Potty Mouth 2009 Santiago & Bushido w/ Fame - For The People EP - Potty Mouth 2008 Cops and Robbers EP (as Cops and Robbers) - Potty Mouth 2008 Blowin Up My Phone (w/ Jake Childs) - Inuendo 2008 For What EP Potty Mouth 2008 Colette - Push - Om 2007 Robsoul LTD 08 – Robsoul 2007 What's Your Name?
