GRAM Intro
What’s up everyone, my name’s Graham Denault. I produce and DJ under the name GRAM. I was born and raised in Gainesville, Florida, and that’s where my whole music journey really started. I began producing music when I was around 12 years old, originally making rap beats. I ended up staying in Gainesville for college, and early on in those years I was introduced to dance music through some friends and mentors. I pretty much fell in love with it right away. I bought my first DJ controller, shifted my production focus toward dance music, and started diving headfirst into the scene. I joined a fraternity, which honestly gave me my first real platform to DJ, and from there I began surrounding myself with other DJs around campus and that’s when things really started to click. Building a community, learning from the people around me, and pushing each other to get better is my favorite part of the whole process. My sound today is heavily influenced by modern bass music and bass house, with artists like Knock2 being a big inspiration. I’m also massively influenced by the friends and artists that I keep close to me. I’ve been really lucky to be surrounded by a group of like-minded people who push my sound forward every day. I want to specifically shout out Butler, Leondis, Terzi, CELO, and so many others for all their help and support throughout this journey. For the past three years, I’ve been consistently releasing remixes and original music, and that’s led to over 2.5 million streams across platforms, especially on SoundCloud. I’ve also been fortunate enough to support a wide range of artists, including DJ Diesel (Shaq), NGHTMRE, Crankdat, SLANDER, Morten, Habstrakt, Flosstradamus, 4B, Hippie Sabotage, Henry Fong, Marten Horger, ARMNHMR, Disco Lines, Tape B, Noizu, CID, Kaivon, Ship Wrek, Cheyenne Giles, Westend, Juelz, Sumthin Sumthin, and many others. One of the biggest highlights of my career so far was getting to play EDC Orlando in 2023. I’ve since moved to Jacksonville Beach to start my post-grad life and work a “big-boy” job, but music is still my passion and something I’m fully committed to pursuing.

GRAM Intro
Butler Intro
Hey everyone! My name is Cade Siebecker, and I’m currently based in Miami, Florida. I’ve been producing all types of dance music for nine years now, which is honestly terrifying to type out. Very early on, I grew up listening to all kinds of dance music without even realizing that’s what it was. In 2011, on the way to middle school baseball practice, a friend introduced me to trap music in the backseat of his dad’s car. I’d say that moment changed my life forever and I couldn’t believe music could sound like that. In hindsight, it was probably the rough mixdowns that got me hooked. It wasn’t polished like radio music, it didn’t follow familiar structures, and it felt completely left-field. I became obsessed. At the same time, my love for Call of Duty and sniping introduced me to dubstep and drum & bass. While I knew about Skrillex like everyone else during those formative years, this is where dance music became a true passion. It was something I felt proud to call my own - something no one else in my world really understood or related to. That’s the earliest memory I have of finding purpose and value in something I discovered entirely on my own. I really got my music career off the ground at the University of Florida, where I spent years grinding club and bar opportunities wherever I could find them under the name "Butler". While it may sound stereotypical now, the fraternity DJ route in 2018 was surprisingly nuanced. I was carving out a path where, at least to me, none really existed. I had no mentorship or guidance - just a gut feeling about what the right decisions were. I learned most lessons as they hit me directly in the face. Through that process, I grew to deeply value mentorship - not just within dance music, but in life as a whole. I started seeking it wherever I could, and eventually offering it as well. I really want to highlight people like GRAM and Leondis, who gave me an early platform to speak life into them and their careers (or at least attempt to at the time hahaha). In reality, I needed them just as much. Teaching them forced me to teach myself, and through constant accountability, we all grew together. They didn't need me at ALL as they're immensely talented on their own, but the community we built pushed everyone to a higher level.

Butler Intro
Saturday win
Huge win today for me. Spent all Saturday working on this community and some content. I dont know why, but whenever I make small sacrifices like nights out or stuff, it always motivates me to work 10x harder. So stoked to get some more people in Quiet Hours. Lets rock
Album Intro Idea
I got inspired by a movie and wanted to practice my strings/atmospheres + piano playing. It's pretty rough but I actually like the idea. I only worked on the first part decently. There's a buildup part in the 2nd half but I just put a 1 layer of saws and a bass as a very rough draft of what I want to happen.
