DJ Logic in Portland

DJ Logic is the stage name of Jason Kibler, an American turntablist from the Bronx whose work connects hip-hop DJ technique with jazz, funk and improvisational music. He is known for the albums Project Logic, The Anomaly and Zen of Logic, and for making turntables a lead instrument in ensemble settings. Project Logic became his principal touring group, and DJ Logic appeared under his own name at the first Bonnaroo festival in 2002. He has also performed at the Newport Jazz Festival and the Montreux Jazz Festival, bringing his turntable-led sets to major jazz and improvisational-music programs.
