About

Hop Machine is an Indianapolis-based DJ act built around reading the room, adapting on the fly, and creating sets that feel made for the crowd in front of them.

Blending house and electronic music with hip-hop, throwbacks, pop, and recognizable crowd favorites, Hop Machine brings an open-format approach to every performance. Rather than relying on a pre-planned set, each night develops around the energy of the room—moving between genres, tempos, and styles to keep the crowd engaged.

Hop Machine has spent the past year performing regularly at Brothers Bar & Grill in Broad Ripple, building experience in one of Indianapolis’ busiest nightlife environments. Beyond the bar and club setting, Hop Machine has performed private parties, community events, and large-scale celebrations throughout Central Indiana.

Now, Hop Machine is expanding its presence throughout Indianapolis and beyond, pursuing new venues, events, support opportunities, and original music while continuing to develop a sound rooted in house music and shaped by years of open-format DJing.
