What is an ECB?

Individual Bio's are coming soon... 

East Coast Boogiemen (or ECB for short) was created on or around Halloween 1997. For over a decade the duo toured across the Globe playing house music and other twists of the genre for the masses. Unlike most DJ groups of the world, ECB has had a colorful history of splitting and reuniting over time, often to work on solo projects or other personal endeavors. Both DJs became successful in their own right as time grew on. Many complications arose due to living in different cities and a major break for Ken Christensen in 2007 after a health scare from an extended flight back from Australia. Ken continued to DJ again in 2008 very selectively as well as remixing projects for Mark Farina's Great Lakes and doing Sound Scores for various commercial outlets. He also transitioned into widening his range without limits that landed him on stage next to Common, Cyprus Hill and many other majors.

By 2011, Juan was continuing his ELM events and DJ gigs while Ken created an album titled "Underground People" in dedication to their most loyal fans. The pair decided that in the end... they could "not" make music without eventually performing live. In honor of this, the Album is set to be released this Fall 2011 with a tour full of surprises.

The album consists of 28 tracks, there are many new titles and a few older titles that have not been publicly available in close to a decade.  


Ken and Juan are available for global booking in support of the album.

The artist behind the LP Cover

Ken and Juan are both art aficionados. Andy Warhol changed the world with his art and vision. We have not seen anyone that has impressed us more visually since Warhol and Jean-Michel Basquiat. Gaughan has become a household name in the worlds art community and has made the history books.  His digital and painted work has been plastered across the universe. His works are priced in the thousands and we are extremely happy and proud to have Gaughan create our LP art. Thank you so much for being as much of a fan of our music as we are your artwork.  

We will have poster sized prints available for sale on the tour, they will soon be available for order on this site, stay tuned.

Underground People LP

New Album
Ken Christensen has been crafting ecb's signature sound for 15 years. He moved from Washington DC to Chicago in 2007. "Chicago was a major change for me, I got to hang out with many of my dance music hero's and the sound of the windy city as well as Detroit began to open me up a bit as an engineer". 
During his time in Chicago, he began writing new music and as time grew on, many classic ECB trax that were released in the late 90's and early 2000's were returned to him and are no longer available in digital stores. The perfect solution, to release a double LP with a mixture of new and old to ECB's true fans - "Underground People". The LP is due out this fall/winter, check back for more details. Photobucket
