His DJ work focuses on house and techno, while he has produced on the Wolf + Lamb, Crosstown Rebels and Circus Company labels, collaborating with artists Art Department, Deetron, Tiefschwarz, Matthew Dear and Subb-an.
[1] Around the same time, he landed a job as a techno buyer in the record store ‘Melodies & Memories’ 23013 Gratiot, Eastpointe Michigan, just a few block north of 9 mile, working alongside Reggie Harrell and Terrence Parker.
It was through his work at ‘Melodies & Memories’ that Troxler met his future Visionquest label-mates Ryan Crosson, Lee Curtiss and Shaun Reeves.
A week after graduating from high-school Troxler was invited on a small European tour for Omar-S’ FXHE label, playing at the German clubs Panorama Bar and Robert Johnson.
[10] The label has seen releases from William Kouam Djoko, Filsonik, Kyle Ridings, Ibellini, Jesse Calosso as well as a collaboration between Troxler and The Martinez Brothers.
It’s about music by artists I’ve met over the years whose music is amazing but not finding its niche.”[12] The first release was a limited 10" from Clarian, titled 'Is There A Light At The End' [13] Troxler's third label - Play It, Say It - draws its name from the stickers which used to appear on records in the 1980s and 1990s, where promos sent to US radio stations often had stickers on them saying, "When You Play It, Say It" to encourage disc jockeys to mention the names of the songs they were broadcasting on air.
[20] In August 2013, Troxler undertook a new venture, with three other collaborators, to set up the pop-up restaurant Smokey Tails in Hackney Wick – an American BBQ serving smoked meats and cocktails.
The restaurant ran for two months before moving to Dalston as part of a new venture called ’Night Tales’ which combines food, experimental bar culture and nightlife.
