Samone Roberts (formerly DJ SR-71) has been rescuing dance floors from monotony and mediocrity with a style born from the days before disco died. As a child raised on the South Side of Chicago, she spent countless weekends skating at the roller rink, dancing to her mother’s disco collection, and listening to WBMX. With synthesized music being a strong influence at such a young age, it's no surprise her first cassette tape was the Soundtrack to Cat People produced by Giorgio Morodor. As a DJ, her style encompasses a variety of styles ranging from Disco, Classics, and grooving Edits to four on the floor percussion driven House. Samone has orchestrated sets behind the decks at some of Chicago’s most notorious venues, including numerous appearances at the legendary Smart Bar. Her excellent programming abilities, layered with a decade of experience enables Samone to bring the obscure to the forefront and the inspiration to the dance floor. Samone is a vocalist, songwriter and producer currently working out of her Chicago studio. She has releases under the name Interrobang on Chicago's Kompute Musik, and with Nathan Drew Larsen of the Restless Natives on Fresh Meat Records.
