About Me



Corporate X. Pushing the boundaries of conventional music.

CORPORATE X As children, key Corporate X members Casper Xavier and Christine DeLeon immersed themselves in music. From pounding on Cookie Monster pianos and portable plug-in organs, music permeated their creative consciousness and found a home.

Ironically, it was during his time in the strict regiment of Military Academy that Casper began delving into the depths of his musical capabilities, joking, “I joined the school band because members were able to stand at ease with their instruments instead of at attention.”

Following in the footsteps of self-produced icons Trent Reznor and Chicago great Billy Corgan, Casper—formerly of Mesclyn, a band founded by Die Warzau’s Van Christie—writes and plays almost every part. “I hear the complete song in my head: every instrument, every drum beat—every song in its entirety,” he says.

Vocal and lyrical duties are Christine’s specialty. Her delicate, hypnotic vocal melodies create a soothing trance, often reminiscent of a mother’s lullabies. “My soft voice is both my greatest strength and, at times, my biggest challenge,” she admits.

Veteran Chicago musician Shon Dervis Smith has held down bass duties for some of the city’s most successful underground bands; expanding on his innate sense of music and composition, he has recently reinvented himself as one of the Windy City’s most sought-after hip-hop DJs. Shon provides Corporate X’s backbone with a solid sense of rhythm and an uncanny ability to lock into the beat.

Drummer / percussionist Richie Betts has recorded and toured with multiple Chicago acts ranging from heavy rock to soulful blues. Never wanting to become too comfortable with one style he strives to be diverse. Listening and playing to a verity of music. As the time keeper for CorporateX Richie is always challenging himself to combine fresh beats with a sensitive touch.

October 16 marks the release of Corporate X’s debut EP, Surrender. Early singles “With You” and “Mother Earth” have garnered attention in the band’s hometown of Chicago and beyond. Both songs earned a five-star ranking on Garageband.com, holding “Best of All Time” and “Track of the Week” positions.

Though Corporate X has just begun, Christine already feels fortunate. “I’m living the life I always wanted,” she maintains, “making the music I love with the people I want around me.”

With such a unique stance on music composition and exploration, Corporate X is sure to resonate with any listener lucky enough to surrender preconceived notions and be touched by discovery.
