Chris Matthews, otherwise known as DJ Nykon, is not your typical cat. In fact, the eccentric, LRG-wearing, gold chain-waving, turntable-crushing DJ is anything but ordinary. Born in New Jersey and raised in California, DJ Nykon made his way nomadically through the West Coast music scene, and now calls Portland, OR home. After building industry relationships by leading street team campaigns for various artists and concerts (including Banksy, Warped Tour and Guerilla Union), DJ Nykon found himself DJ'ing for Living Legends, alongside Visionaries and Hieroglyphics. Soon after, he started DJing for Luckyiam (of Living Legends) and hit the road furiously in 2007. Hitting both the Paid Dues festival and Rock the Bells, he played alongside such notable acts as Rage Against the Machine and Wu-Tang Clan. DJ Nykon is on the steady grind touring the country with Portland Hip Hop artist Sapient, playing shows ranging from electro/dubstep party's to packed underground Hip Hop venues.
