Via BBC Radio 1:
The Juan MacLean, real name John MacLean, is a former post-hardcore guitarist turned electronic music producer. He spent several years out of the music business after quitting his band Six Finger Satellite, before the band’s live sound engineer James Murphy persuaded him to make dance music for his new label DFA. He’s since released two albums on DFA and is set to drop his third later this year.
