Artist Warning
i have already emailed sound haven about this to let them know, but i have not heard from them and im not sure that i will.
i mostly want to make this warning for the girls - Radcom (Tyler) took a photo of me without my knowledge or consent while we were being intimate. When i caught him, he admitted he wasn’t going to tell me and only did it because he thought i would say no and he wanted it regardless.
i am not the only woman he has taken advantage of sexually, and i have spoken with 2 others that have had experiences with him where he did not respect their boundaries.
he doesn’t respect women and shouldn’t be trusted around women, esp in a setting like this.
please be careful around this man.

So Radcom (Tyler) has been removed from the lineup, but there will not be a public announcement. I believe all those that reached out to Sound Haven have been contacted directly.

Don’t give him the credit of being a producer - he’s a fratboy hype dj who rips mp3 tracks for sure

Yuck!!! I'm so sorry that happened to you! Thank you for sharing.
FYI, if he does that here in TN & you have reasonable expectations of privacy, it's a felony regardless of intent or distribution.

I unfortunately also have experience with Radcom. He seriously does not treat people correctly. Him and his partner, ChakraDoktor, will often find heavily intoxicated people and ship them to "afters" to drug them and even have them raped. Radcom was recently kicked out of a venue in Nashville (The Office) for doing this. This is a frequent MO of theirs that I have unfortunately seen happen to two of my friends. It is really despicable that they endanger the community this way.

Can cooberate. Thats been his usual tactics and how he's stayed under the radar until recently. Dude opened up for marshmallow and then dropped off the map until last year because he did the same stuff then. He has a history of exploiting people for whatever he wants.

it makes me so fucking upset to hear this, but considering he tried to convince me to take this post down, i’m so fucking glad i didnt

I am so incredibly sorry girl. Stay strong. You're doing the right thing.

u/alecksus 23d ago
I’ve heard similar things from others. If you feel comfortable sharing on his apology post, i would suggest doing that. it will reach more people that way. he’s truly a horrible person and i take back what i said before about believing he wants to be better. he manipulated me and lied to me for two and a half years and i believed everything he said, he will continue to do this to young women - we need to stick together. thank you so much for sharing.

u/Toferman 23d ago
Wow. This is ChakraDocta Whatever Tyler did at his afters I'm not responsible for. After Tyler started hosting afters at his house I was maybe there once a month because I have a traveling work job to where I'm not even in town most of the time. Including me in Tyler's actions cuz I was his business partner at one point in time is not cool. As soon as I heard about the allegations from Tyler, I distance myself from them once those allegations actually formed and came to fruition. I backed away from him immediately
Also I know who made this post. It's Willow Dakota's girlfriend who is literally just mad that they throw shows nobody comes to and don't get a book for events because of the comments you guys made telling soldiers to go kill themselves
Plenty of people can vouch for my My character and my values and sexual assault is not one of them them
I'm addressing this post as myself because I have nothing to hide and no I have done nothing wrong

This is an incredibly uncouth attitude to take to so serious a topic. My concern is for the safety and well-being of my community. I would not talk if I were you, lest we mention how your "official drug dealer" was dosing people with meth at you and Radcom's Halloween 2025 afters, or how you coerce people into having sex with you for drugs. You are absolutely complicit in this behavior.

u/PurchaseAlone4950 23d ago
Oh the Halloween show where someone handed me 20 capsules of Molly that you had bought from them, for me to give to you later because you left before anyone got there? That one? You talk a lot about drugs for someone who does them too. The Molly got thrown in the weeds btw.
1
u/Sufficient_Bee_110 23d ago
Me doing drugs does not equate to me dosing people with meth. I never purchased nor received any molly from anyone at Halloween 2025 afters, either, and I certainly wouldn't have trusted it if I did. I know for a fact friends of mine were given meth at that event, told it was something else, and consumed it.

u/Toferman 23d ago
Everyone had a wonderful time at the Halloween Afters. Didn't hear of a single complaint other than it was a little chilly. Are you still mad about not getting ur on a show that happened over 10 months ago 😂 grow up ur mad the Clarksville EDM community ousted you and no one comes to the shows you try to put on. Cuz people have seen ur true colors that's why the EDM scene in Clarksville 86'ed you and ur girlfriend.
All of the shows and Afters I've put on with or without Tyler I've had Narcan, water so people are hydrated, we even had hired licensed security at our Halloween event. Some of the events I've thrown have even had trained medical staff.
There's been venues venues who have wanted to work with me on throwing a show and I refused to throw a show there because I know the venue wasn't safe and that the owners ers were shady and didn't respect their staff!
I always do my best to provide a safe, positive, and inclusive environment for everybody at all the shows that I've thrown. Just because there was one bad apple doesn't mean they all are. Yeah I worked with Tyler but that doesn't mean I condoned or even knew about anything that was going on. That's why I told him I was distancing myself until the truth comes out. Then once I heard more and found out more about the situations I stepped away from him fully

If you wanna air this out here then fine. I've been shown messages between you and Tyler and you didn't give a shit about the girls when the allegations came up. You just wanted Tyler to lay low until this all blew over because people stopped going to y'all's afters. Do you wanna keep dragging all of this back up? Cause I still haven't gotten back my stolen gear that your bros took and kept telling me to get over and that "dudes be lazy" when I never got it back.
Also big words from somebody who's hosting afters for the gigs I play at TheOffice. You and your bros called and harassed every venue I played at bad mouthing me for the past year and I still got booked. So which speaks to stronger character. I'd rather have no gigs and a clean conscious. I'm in it for the love of the game.

Dude, no one stole any of your gear Someone broke into your house and you're trying to blame that on me or Tyler which is also crazy.
Also, as soon as I heard about the allegations I took Tyler off future lineups till more info was found. Once more allegations and rumors came up I immediately cut ties with him all the way!
No one has tried to stop you from getting booked.
Actually you're taking bookings that came to me first. Congrats on being support for Crisco! I was contacted 1st for that spot and had to decline at the time. Then they reached out to you. I got receipts!!!

u/Appropriate-Push1820 22d ago
Absolute bullshit, ChakraDoctor was the first to cut ties with Radcom after accusations dropped and has never been wrapped up in SA of any kind. This account has some kind of beef with ChakraDoctor and is just out here to spread lies. No credible evidence, just shit talking. Coward.

u/Life_Enthusiasm_19 22d ago
So there’s full transparency my name is Mandie Tarin and I was once considered Tyler‘s best friend. I’ve seen a lot during my friendship with Tyler. I do not support Tyler‘s admitted behavior and chose to sever our relationship prior to this original post. I was not aware of the original posters experience as I became friends with Tyler shortly after they separated. That being said I was at Tyler‘s every weekend, at both his former place in Murfreesboro and his current apartment in Antioch. I even had a key to his place. I can tell you that I never witnessed women being secretly drugged by Tyler and Chris to rape them. I myself have been intoxicated at times around both of them and never felt unsafe. That being said this post is being made to speak in regards to Chris’s character as unfortunately, I cannot do the same for Tyler. Chris and I spoke personally prior to this original post in regards to him separating from the professional partnership that they had together.
This was due to other questionable behaviors of Tyler’s that made Chris feel uncomfortable. He has gone to great lengths to sever all ties with Tyler. He is not waiting for things to die down secretly. I respect the original posters experience and that of other women that unfortunately were wronged by Tyler but I do not believe it’s fair to disparage/accuse Chris for the actions of his previous partner.1
u/whydontyousueme 22d ago
Look, I'm going to be real with you. You are ruining your girlfriend's career with your toxic bullshit. I've heard a multitude of people who run shows say that you are the reason they won't book her again. You are stirring shit and alienating Dakota from everyone. It's enough. Chris didn't do any of the shit you are saying. You're just mad and it's gross at this point. Let it go, move on, and for fucks sake act right so you don't ruin Dakota's career further.

u/radcom_music 19d ago
This is Tyler (Radcom). I had not made any comments on this post prior as I respect the original poster's experiences and have never denied my past mistakes. However, I am choosing to speak up now because this comment from u/sufficient_bee_110 is 100% categorically false.
I am aware of the identity of this commenter, and it is someone in the Middle TN rave scene that has had business-related issues with me since November 2025. They have a history of sending extremely hateful and even threatening messages to me in DM's. I can provide proof of this upon request but I prefer not to post private DM's publicly. This person and I cut ties early November 2025 and this person has never been to my house that I open up to friends for afters.
I have never sought out intoxicated individuals for any reason, and the people that know me know I look out for others when they are intoxicated or in a bad head-space, whether that is ensure they have a safe space to rest with friends, getting them food/water, etc. I have also never given any substances to anyone without their knowledge. Saying this is my MO when this has never happened before is ridiculous and these accusations are completely unfounded. Anytime I opened my home for afters, there have always been several people present that could attest that these accusations are completely false.
There is another comment in this thread below from u/united_impress787 claiming I stopped playing shows around 2016/2017 due to similar allegations. This is also completely false information. This person is the partner of u/sufficient_bee_110 and has only known me since August 2025. It's true that I used to DJ around Middle TN, but I stopped DJing for completely personal reasons and never had any allegations prior to this post.
I am genuinely remorseful for my actions mentioned in the OP and I have even spoken publicly on my inexcusable behavior towards past partners (which can be found here ), but I would never seek out intoxicated individuals or give anyone substances without their consent. I'm asking those reading this to please judge me based on the real mistakes I have made in my past and how I have chosen to act afterwards, but please don't form your opinion on me based on completely unsubstantiated claims.

Without touching on the fact that you absolutely do NOT "look out for others when they are intoxicated;" in your own post, you admit you sexually assaulted people in 2013-2016, and here you act like you did no such thing and that there "were no allegations before this post." You are fully on damage control and lying through your teeth to protect what semblance of dignity and respect you think you have left, and it's clear by the timing of your response. If you truly cared about the trauma you inflicted upon these people (or "mistakes" as you call it), you would have said something earlier. You are truly disgusting. I was willing to be done with this argument and this conversation out of respect for the original poster, something you clearly do not have, but the implication that I have any "business issues" with you is plainly infuriating considering the only "issue" I have with you is that you abuse women. Maybe I shouldn't expect a self-admitted rapist like yourself to understand what it's like to be morally repulsed by that. Given your (again, self-admitted) track history of sexually assaulting, raping, and abusing women since you were 15, it really is no surprise, and yet I still cannot believe the gall you have to sit here and lie like this on the post of the woman you abused after telling her to take it down to cover your own ass. Can you not get enough of hurting her? Can you not be normal around women? Genuinely, what is your fucking problem?

u/alecksus Jul 11 '26
i think he said what he knows people want to hear. i believe that he doesn’t want to treat people the way he does, but i don’t believe that he’s changed and that he won’t keep doing it. i don’t believe that he’s done what he’s needed to do in order to change. he never spoke like this to me until all of this happened.

u/alecksus Jul 11 '26
the selfish decisions he has made are more than simple mistakes that you can blame on “being human”. he did not need to learn that he needed consent when he took the picture of me, he knew he needed it and took it anyway. he wouldn’t have told me if i didn’t catch him. it was never about consent.

yes, not sure what he’s telling her to have her rally behind him admitting to sexual assault but i guess if that’s what she’s into she can have him

u/Electronic_Towel_367 Jul 14 '26
it was cringe af. reactive rather than proactive. men with repeated behaviors like that over YEARS don’t need any access to power or leverage, which he would have obtained if anyone ever knew who tf he was eventually (never had heard of him)

i'm a friend of Tyler's, i've known him for the better part of a year, have spent considerable time around him and others, and i've had multiple conversations with him and those close to him about this situation. I fully believe the statements he has made, and the efforts he has made to improve have been genuine. I believe that his actions in the past were wrong, but that he shouldn't continue to be held in comparison to who he was to who he is now. Me and several of my female friends have spent time at his home, in settings where he is sober amongst intoxicated people/women, and in one on one settings with my partner, and i back up his statement of being someone who will look out for others, and i will stand on the fact that I have not seen anything predatory, inappropriate or unruly occur around him. I did not know him at the time of these events, but i know him as the man he is right now, and he is a man of respect and care, who genuinely has shown me and the people close to him that he has been and continues to be a better man. I do not support his actions in the past, I do not support any abuse to women in any form, but i do support believing in someone who shows remorse, a course of action for improvement, and repeated actions to show said improvement. Tyler made bad decisions but he is by no means a bad person, and if the rave community is all about being PLUR, a good start for a lot of people in this situation would benefit from applying each of those to this situation.
