DaxGil & the Open Empire

DJ Sets

DaxGil is an award-winning artist born and raised in the Inland Empire of SoCal*.

 

 

 

Blending the cinematic depth of classical music with the raw energy of funk and Hip-Hop, DaxGil crafts a sound that defies convention.

 

 

His music is a genre-bending exploration of rhythm, melody, and emotion, where tradition meets rebellion.

 

With every composition, he seeks to challenge boundaries, evoke feeling, and create something truly unique in the independent alternative scene.

 

His curiousity into the avant garde led to studies in college.*

 

Upon finishing his studies, Dax created Open Empire Records an independent record company based in the IE with a mission to lift local artists to the national spotlight.
