About DJ Kepi

I have been DJ'ing and making beats since 1992. My first love was breakbeats and then my passion evolved to encompass house, tech, techno & downtempo.

(expired link) Electronic music writer Jeff Pederson has been a DJ and producer for over 20 years in the northwest region of the US. Take a listen and realize why he is storming the international electronic house scene. Hailing from Portland (that's in Oregon), Tympanic Membrane is a one man alter ego. "We shouldn't tie ourselves down to genres all the time. I believe in good music." He says this just as confidently as his drumtracks chase tangible samples that tease the six senses of harmony. TM discovered music earlier than most electronic music engineers. As most teenagers his passion led him to the strobe of Techno, Breakbeat, Electro and Dub, but growing up Jeff was surrounded by music. With both of his parents having musical backgrounds TM had a perfect gift. A natural talent was shaped as a baby, touring with his dad's band. At age 9 he took formal piano lessons. When he turned 11 he picked up the violin. At 16 the guitar became the next expression of his slow baked talent. In 1992 Jeff was introduced to the ultimate instrument, the turntable, by way of his friends DJ JFunk and Dustin Alexander. DJ Kepi was born. Kepi's DJ style is a direct reflection of him and his upbeat attitude. A decade later he emerged with a perfect ear and a lust for production. Tympanic Membrane was bred and the fever broken with a personal sound that fuses all his influences and channels them into his DJ/producing. In the spring of 2006 the release of his 4th CD as DJ Kepi entitled 'Beat Traffic Controller' made waves among-st those listening.

Fast forward to 2014 and Kepi has steadily churned out new mixes and original work. Kepi currently has around 15 mix tapes floating around. Many of them are up for download here: (expired link)
Kepi is also working in the studio. Look out for up and coming collaborations with Dustin Alexander and DJ JFunk this year on n2 & MembraneMedia.
