JT Donaldson is a deep and soulful house producer and DJ raised in Dallas, Texas and now based in Los Angeles. He came up through the Dallas underground, shaped early by Chicago DJs who traveled south to play the city's parties, and built a catalog of warm, jazz-inflected house across labels including Om Records, Cajual, Classic, Large Music, and Lazy Days Recordings. His sets move fluently from Chicago house roots through disco, afrobeat, techno, acid, and jazz, favoring long blends and deep grooves over big drops. He has become a regular at Dante's HiFi in Miami and remains a fixture of underground house rooms across Miami, Austin, Dallas, New York City, and San Francisco. Two decades and hundreds of productions in, he stands among the most respected voices in American underground house.
