Mickey 'Mixin' Oliver was a founding member of the influential Chicago DJ group, The Hot Mix 5. When this group formed in 1981 on radio station WBMX (FM), Oliver was quickly selected as CEO. The Hot Mix 5 went on to become one of the leading forces in the early Chicago house music scene and the 1st to air the new sound to the world.
One of his first releases, “In-Ten-Si-T” (1988), which was co-written and produced by Jim "Cheese" Romano, is considered one of the Top 10 most influential House Music Records of All-Time. In 1987, his collaboration with friend and remixer, Ralphi Rosario; "You Used to Hold Me" and "Never Let Go", became big hits as well. Much of Oliver's works continue to be remixed and re-released several times and through many producer/artists all over the world.
In 2011, Oliver charted on Billboard Magazine's Dance Music Club Play chart with his single release "As Days Go By" featuring Baton Rouge (LA) singer Kim Smith on the Intensi-T label. The song debuted at #46 on the chart on January 22, 2011 and rose to peak at #16. That chart success seemed to remind the dance music industry of Oliver's abilities as it opened the door to more remixing opportunities. Later that year he had another chart success with his remix of singer Lakotah's single "Falling" which climbed the same chart to peak at #43. Olived remixed trumpeter David Longoria's single Zoon Baloomba which debuted on the Billboard chart at #50 on October 6, 2012. When it debuted it became the first recording on this chart by a trumpeter since Herb Alpert charted his instrumental single "Rise" in 1979. Zoon Baloomba climbed the Billboard chart for the following 8 weeks reaching #21 on November 18, 2012. In 2013 Oliver collaborated with David Longoria again, this time co-writing an instrumental EDM style dance song titled "Reflection" which was recorded by Longoria and is included in his 2013 CD release Baila!. This became the first of the popular EDM dance style to feature the trumpet as the melodic lead.
Today, Oliver continues to work as a DJ, producer, remixer and television show creator.
