H3LIUM Resident Showcase ~ Ryan Patrick

Ryan Patrick is a natural, passionate performer with the ability to deliver an unforgettable show. Whether it is chilling at a sexy lounge, soaking up the rays at a pool party, or rocking it out at the club or after-party, Ryan has a versatile sound that will have everyone grooving. Although Ryan found the electronic music scene a little later in life, right from the very beginning it became his passion, and it has had a lasting impact on his life. His early exposure and influences came from the dark and hard Techno/Minimal sounds which dominate Detroit’s underground music scene, and it quickly became his preferred sound early on. Those roots in the Techno/Minimal style tend to find a special place in his performances and recordings, and Ryan’s passion for that style has opened doors for him and his burgeoning DJ career, leading to opportunities to open for some of the legends in Detroit Techno, including Derrick May, Kevin Saunderson, and Stacey Pullen. Over time and with more exposure to other genres of EDM, Ryan has come to identify with a sexier groove in his preferred sound and track selection. At this point in his music career, it is with an open-minded mentality that we find him now including a broader variety of genres in his sets, from House to Tech House, and also delving into Deep House sounds. Through Ryan’s embrace of all styles of electronic music and the scene that accompanies it, he can be characterized as a true connoisseur of electronic dance music. His newfound versatility and creativity is the trademark of his current sets, and it has won him fans the world over. H3LIUM: https://www.facebook.com/groups/H3LIUMDeejays/
