Shomari “Sho” Daniels is a Chicago DJ and entertainer — perhaps better known by their DJ persona, Zeetus Lapetus. Though they lived just outside of Chicago in Richmond Park for most of their life, they have been a part of the Chicago House music scene since they were young and moved into the city proper in 2019. During the pandemic, noticing a sense of loneliness, they decided to become a DJ. Their first gig was a virtual show for Dreamhouse Chicago, bringing listeners what they describe as a “space disco.” This is what their Chicago sounds like.

This segment of “This Is What Chicago Sounds Like” was produced by Ari Mejia. To keep up with Daniels’ upcoming DJ sets as Zeetus Lapetus, visit their Instagram @ZeetusLapetus.
