Dance Mania's Youngest Female DJ With Jana Rush

For the first episode of 2022, DJ Shannon invites Dance Mania
alum, Jana Rush.


Jana Rush’s hefty catalog extends back to the label’s heyday. She
was dubbed “The Youngest Female DJ” under Dance Mania after she
made an appearance on 1996’s “The Armageddon”-- a split
collaborative EP With DJ Deeon.


With the mentorship of some of the greats like Chicago’s juke
king Gant-Man and the late great Paul Johnson, Jana’s production
style slowly morphed, incorporating a bevy of different sounds
from footwork and juke to techno. The best thing about the
Chicago native is that she works at her own pace, there’s no rush
to create and the time and care she puts into her craft is
evident, especially on her last LP "Painful Enlightenment," a
project that takes you on an intense roller coaster filled with
different chaotic samples, sporadic percussion, and vocal
samples.


Jana reminisced about her early beginnings cooking up tracks with
Paul Johnson, why she takes her time with producing, some of the
challenges she faced coming up in the industry, and what she
plans for 2022!
