One of the originators of the midwest jungle movement, Easyrider has guided the development of Minnesota's scene and sounds as part of the infamous Jungle Vibe Collective, the 2step garage crew Stepper's Alliance and label Alliance Recordings, as well as one of Minneapolis' most longest running and successful bi-weekly club nights, Konkrete Jungle Minneapolis.

Jeff Hunter was born and raised in St. Paul, Minnesota and while in high school, Jeff heard his first 'techno' song. It was 'James Brown is Dead' by L.A. Style. This was to be the beginning of his transformation into what we call a 'techno-head'. The second catalyst of this transformation came about when Jeff journeyed to Duluth, Minnesota to attend college. While at college he had the opportunity to get a time slot on KUMD public radio. He hooked up with dj Diene and they became 'The Harmonic Sideshow'. This is where Jeff Hunter learned the sacred art of beat matching.
