Windimoto is an American dance music production duo based in Chicago that consists of DJ/producer Sean Haley and musician/producer Scorpeze.
Windimoto was formed in Chicago in 2007 by club DJ/drummer/producer Sean Haley and musician/songwriter/producer Scorpeze (pronounced "skor-pee-zee"). Haley and Scorpeze met in Chicago in the fall of 2005. Upon getting to know each other, they discovered that they had similar musical tastes and ideas. They decided to collaborate on original material and were pleased with the results. Haley and Scorpeze decided to continue on as a production team.
Haley was born and raised in Chicago and Scorpeze was born and raised in Detroit. The name Windimoto was chosen by Haley to represent both cities. Windimoto's music is based in Deep House, a sub-genre of House music that is built on organic instruments and sounds.
In the winter of 2007, Bay Area hip-hop label Interdependent Media released the duo's debut EP, The Travels Of Windimoto, to critical acclaim. The EP featured five original songs and remixes by Nicolay, Trackademics, Sevany2, and DJ Tony Tone. The first single from the EP was "Don't Let Me Leave Alone" featuring vocals by emcee/singer Phonte Coleman (Little Brother, The Foreign Exchange) under the alias Victor St. Clair. Coleman's involvement was meant to be kept secret in order to let the song succeed own its own merits. The secret was revealed by a journalist in a review of the EP. The Travels Of Windimoto was named #44 in Vapors Magazine's Top 50 Albums of 2008. A remix single for "Don't Let Me Leave Alone" was released in 2009 on the Phuture Soul Recordings label featuring remixes by influential Deep House producers Pirahnahead, Abicah Soul, and Ian Friday.
In 2009, Windimoto released their first full-length album, Sinister Beauty. The album was released on the duo's own label, Windimoto Music.
