Tyree Cooper is part of the first Global House music revolution that started in Chicago. His
contribution to House Music & Acid House is unmatched and led him to co-create Hip House
alongside The DJ Fast Eddie, widening the appeal of House music worldwide.
Growing up on the streets of Chicago’s South Side, listening to Farley Jackmaster Funk and The Hot
Mix 5, Ron Hardy, Frankie Knuckles and his mother’s and uncles’ music collection, Tyree was well
schooled in music at an early age. As a freshman he joined the Simeon H.S Concert and Marching
Band.
Two years after college Tyree was already one of the most popular and highly sought-after DJs in
Chicago. He was then approached by Vince Lawrence of the House band Jesse’s Gang (founded by
Jesse Saunders) who persuaded Tyree to put together a demo tape of his music to start a career as a
recording artist. From now on, it was only a question of time before signing the first record deal with
the Chicago based underground label D.J. International Records.
The first 12′′ single - I Fear The Night (with female vocalist Chic) promptly became an underground
classic in Chicago. Other hits followed, Video Crash and Acid Crash (1987) - Acid Over (1988) - Turn
Up The Bass (1988/89) - Let’s Get Hyped (feat. Kool Rock Steady, 1989) - Let the Music Take Control
(1989) and Hardcore Hip House (1989). In 2013, Tyree Cooper founded his own label: Chicago Vinyl
Records with distribution from Juno Records UK. He has continued to release tracks and classic hits
from DJ International and Dance Mania record labels.

such as Glastonbury Festival UK, Amsterdam Dance Event, DJoon Paris, Babel Sao Paulo Brazil, Mona
Club Paris, Rhonda International San Francisco and Summer Dance Chicago. He was also hosting a
monthly night with Bobby Starrr at the famous Tresor club in Berlin, called E-Man-Ci-Pate. Tyree
