Name: Chachi

Hi it's Randy Leibenguth…aka Chachi… I'm a 34-year-old Montana native. In the late 90’s I began spinning hip-hop CD’s at a frat house at Montana State University in Bozeman. This is also where I got my nickname Chachi.

Soon I attended my first rave at a warehouse in Seattle. This was my initial exposure to the electronic music scene, and I was instantly hooked. Returning to Montana, I took the next step. I bought turntables and learned some basics from B-Nut, a member of Epagee, a Bozeman rage style band. Current projects and events include a monthly club night at The Zebra Cocktail Lounge, seasonal theme parties, sets on www.etn.fm and a weekly chill/lounge night at Plonk Wine. I have played unique events and venues including parks, slope side at ski resorts, snowboard rail slide competitions, multi day outdoor festivals, private parties, restaurants, Montana State football tailgates, Burning Man and community arts events. Today I spend time in the studio producing tunes for future sets.
