Speaker Bio
Born and raised in Kingston, Jamaica, Greg Chin has had a passion for music, since birth. Stryke began his music career at an early age, playing classical piano at the age of four. Moving to Miami, Florida (where he still resides) at age ten, and becoming heavily involved in early electronic alternative scene. His love for Beethoven and Chopin were quickly joined by his new love for groups such as Depeche Mode and New Order (not to mention an unhealthy addiction to video games, which he still has to this very day). Buying his first synthesizer at age 12, Stryke quickly learned the ways of additive synthesis and began writing electronic songs discovering house and techno from a mix tape given to him by his cousin, a DJ in New York. He was hooked. Today Greg states, "Both production and DJing have really become one in the same for me. I really can't separate the two. The words musician, artist, and DJ, all have the same importance to me." He boasts a lengthy discography on some of dance music’s most iconic labels such as Nervous, MURK, Tronic, Ovum, and many others. He has been a member of the Avid family since 2006 and is proud to be its Audio Evangelist!
