    their own biography

    the whole biography
    HiTech is putting a modern twist on Detroit’s electrifying ghettotech sound with a mouthful of Hennessy and a double dose of booty-shaking techno. Since first releasing music in 2022, HiTech has performed across the midwest from venues in Detroit, Chicago, and Cleveland to nightclubs and stadiums in New York City, Atlanta, and Denver, as well as overseas at festivals and venues throughout Europe. Before their eccentric self-titled debut, HiTech organically formed as a group of young creatives who were bound together by their respective roots in Detroit. Beyond the Detroit-based influences that ground the group, an array of earlier influences find themselves rooted within HiTech. 47Chops spent time growing up in both Richmond, Virginia as well as in Cambodia during his early childhood, and he credits his dad— a hairdresser and musical artist who would burn CDs for his hair shows—for an early introduction to cinematic techno, referencing the Matrix soundtrack and Detroit’s popular New Dance Show. King Milo was also exposed to music at an early age at the hands of musical parents—his dad was a full-time rapper-performer-comedian. Milf Melly recalls riding around with his mom and hearing musical influences that spanned rap subgenres from coast to coast, and later credits the video game GTA V for getting him into dance music specifically. Influenced by midwestern dance music icons from the likes of DJ Assault, Moodymann, DJ Rashad, and more, HiTech began to fuse a new sound that transitioned the Detroit-based-ghettotech sound they loved into a modern era. High-technology 808s, illustrious melodies, vibrant synths, and fast paced, pitched up vocals weave together their debut project, HiTech as well as their critically acclaimed follow up, 2023’s DETWAT. With a new album on the horizon for 2024, HiTech are well on their way to reimagining dance and techno culture and cementing a new quintessentially Detroit sound.

    their own biography

    the whole biography
    Meg10 moves like someone who understands clubs as cultural pressure points and playgrounds for self-expression. Rooted in hip-hop and reggaeton, and sharpened by years inside Europe’s more uncompromising dance floors, the Berlin-based DJ has spent the last nine years shaping a sound that sits somewhere between politics and pleasure: bass-heavy, polyrhythmic, and unapologetically femme. Her path runs through rooms that carry real weight: Berghain, Tresor and Watergate in Berlin, Razzmatazz in Barcelona, Drugstore in Belgrade, Le Bain in New York, Axis Club in Chengdu. In 2025, she closed ADE with her club night Hoe__mies and appeared at defining parties including Riposte at Electrowerkz and HOWL Pride Fest in London, Pornceptual in Berlin, and En1gma in Madrid. Festival stages followed: WHOLE, Horst, Pukkelpop, Fusion, Wireless, and Sonder in Australia. Alongside this, her eye for image and style has led to ongoing relationships with houses like Bottega Veneta and Mugler, placing her at an easy intersection of nightlife and fashion without feeling ornamental to either. Her touring has steadily stretched outward. Two Australia tours, an Asia run across China, Hong Kong and Thailand, club dates in New York and Chicago, and most recently a first run through Latin America, with stops during Carnaval in Brazil, Buenos Aires, and a self-curated Hoe__mies party in Lima. Through Hoe__mies, she has also built a network of nights promoting shows across Tokyo, Melbourne, London, Glasgow, Paris, Lisbon, Barcelona, Amsterdam and Brussels, and connecting local scenes through collaboration, friendship and a shared sense of intent.
