Brian Edward Duex passed away unexpectedly on January 15th, 2023.

He was born in Davenport, IA on May 21st, 1970, to Thomas and Carol Duex.

Brian DJ’ed from the time he stole his brother’s record player and was known to some, simply as DJ Hi-Tech. Over the last 30 years, Brian DJ’ed many QC area clubs/bars, weddings, private events, and any other place where a proper vibe was necessary. In his time outside of DJing, he loved spending time with his son, hanging out with friends, making beats, producing a radio show and spending time with his son’s cats who he called his ‘grandkitties.’ Over the past couple years, he had also rekindled a passion of lifting weights, and loved watching old school bodybuilders on youtube like Ronnie Coleman and Jay Cutler.

Brian is survived by his son, Brayden (Hazel), his brothers Jeff (Tania) and Mike (Jenny) and many nieces and nephews.
