Chris Manak, aka Peanut Butter Wolf, is a DJ, hip-hop producer and the founder of hip-hop label Stones Throw Records.
A native of San Jose, California, he has been active since 1989 when he produced a song by Lyrical Prophecy called "You Can't Swing This". In 1990 he began to work with emcee Charizma, and both of them were soon signed to Hollywood Basic, a division of Disney.
Although they recorded a full album of material, it would not be released for many years. In 1993 the group left the label due to lack of artistic freedom, their only release a cassette demo of single "Red Light, Green Light." Later that year, Charizma was killed.
Without an emcee, Peanut Butter Wolf continued making music. He put out a song ("The Chronicles") on the now legendary Return of the DJ, Vol. 1 compilation and a collection of beats for DJ's ('Peanut Butter Breaks'). Return of the DJ is known as the first all-DJ album, helping to start the careers of turntablists such as DJ Q-bert, Cut Chemist, DJ Z-Trip, and others.
In 1996, Peanut Butter Wolf formed Stones Throw Records and released its first single, Charizma & Peanut Butter Wolf's "My World Premiere" followed by the labels second release by group Homeless Derelicts (Grand The Visitor (MC) and Architect (Producer) who now are members of Urban Umpires. The inspiration of choosing Stones Throw's second release manifested when Peanut Butter Wolf heard Homeless Derelicts on Beat Junkies Vol. 1.
Peanut Butter Wolf released his own solo album on Stones Throw, My Vinyl Weighs a Ton, in 1999. Since then he has nearly given up producing to focus on DJing and executive producing projects for his label, most notably Madlib, whose group Lootpack he signed in 1998 after hearing their demo on a college radio station.
As Stones Throw Records raised its visibility in the 2000s with noted hip hop releases by Madlib's Quasimoto, Yesterdays New Quintet, Jaylib (J Dilla and Madlib) and Madvillain (MF Doom and Madlib), it has also expanded to include funk and hip hop re-issues, and experimental jazz and electronic music. In 2006 Peanut Butter Wolf served as presenter for Stones Throw & Adult Swim's Chrome Children CD/DVD.
Chris is married to clothing designer Violet Valen, owner of BUDDY by Violet Valen.
