CHASKE on Sobriety, Identity, and Growing Up in NYC’s Underground
CHASKE joins Tiny Table Radio for a conversation about growing up in New York’s underground rave scene, choosing sobriety while working in nightlife, and building a house music career shaped by identity and intention.
In this episode, the Brooklyn-based Native American and Jewish DJ and producer reflects on discovering electronic music at 14 years old at an illegal park rave in NYC — a chaotic first experience that set him on a 15-year journey through global travel, long-form DJ sets, and eventually house music.
We talk about playing a 12-hour set for 50,000 people at Thailand’s Full Moon Party, opening for Damian Lazarus early in his house career, and what it means to step into bigger rooms before you feel fully ready.
But this conversation goes deeper than milestones.
CHASKE shares what led him to get sober inside the rave culture, how partying from a young age shaped his relationship with music, and how discipline ultimately brought more clarity to his production, performance, and community building.
We also explore how his Native American and Jewish heritage influences his creative process — from powwow drum rhythms to sampling traditional melodies — and why house music remains, at its core, about connection.
This episode is about growth inside the underground — not outside of it.
