About

JT Donaldson is a composer, remixer and producer from Dallas, Texas who started producing music in 1997. He moved to Chicago from Dallas after Fair Park Records took a hiatus and co-founded the record label Gallery Music Group with Timothy Shumaker. Donaldson operates under several aliases including J Tilla, Jacques Le Fue, and Dirty Kicks, with releases spanning from 2010 to present day across multiple imprints.

Donaldson produces house and deep house tracks with occasional forays into classic electro, releasing on labels including Classic Music Company, Dolfin Records, Kolour Recordings, Deepalma, and Lumberjacks In Hell. His sound encompasses traditional house rhythms and deep house grooves, with his electro productions drawing from Detroit's classic template. The artist maintains a steady output with 10 releases documented on Electrobuzz, demonstrating consistent activity in the underground house scene across Chicago and beyond.
