the whole biography
Meet Brian Kage: Detroit techno’s hometown hero and an audio architect of the city’s ongoing renaissance. Born and raised in the heart of Motor City, Kage’s career has been a love letter to Detroit Techno’s authentic sound, earning him a spot on DJ Magazine’s “10 Detroit Producers Keeping the Sound of the Motor City Alive.” His music spans top-tier labels like Michigander, Craigie Knowes, Omar S’s FXHE, Carl Craig’s Planet-E, making him an in-demand name in the techno and house world. Kage’s debut album, Timeless Times, is exactly what it sounds like—a time-traveling journey through Detroit’s underground, blending classic house grooves with a fresh techno edge. This 19-track ride has earned raves from Resident Advisor, BanTanTan, Blues and Soul UK, and more. But Kage isn’t just a solo act; he’s also part of Reference with Detroit’s Luke Hess, Airport Society with Beretta Music’s Ryan Sadorus, and Escape Driver, a synth-wave collaboration with Jon Paul Bakaric. And yes, Kage even produces for none other than the Insane Clown Posse as Brian Kuma. Whoop whoop! When he’s not crafting his own beats, Kage is at KageMastering, mixing and mastering music for both local legends and international stars like Delano Smith, Norm Talley, and OB Ignitt. Through his beats, projects, and mentorship, Brian Kage stands as a cornerstone of Detroit’s evolving soundscape, with one foot in its storied past and the other in its dynamic future.Their RA profile lists Planet E, FXHE Records, Restructured, Beretta Grey and 6 more.“Blow, blow, thou winter wind Thou art not so unkind As man's ingratitude; Thy tooth is not so keen, Because thou art not seen, Although thy breath be rude.”

Blow, blow, thou winter wind Thou art not so unkind As man's ingratitude; Thy tooth is not so keen, Because thou art not seen, Although thy breath be rude. Heigh-ho! sing, heigh-ho! unto the green holly: Most freindship if feigning, most loving mere folly: Then heigh-ho, the holly! This life is most jolly. Freeze, freeze thou bitter sky, That does not bite so nigh As benefits forgot: Though thou the waters warp, Thy sting is not so sharp As a friend remembered not. Heigh-ho! sing, heigh-ho! unto the green holly: Most friendship is feigning, most loving mere folly: Then heigh-ho, the holly!

Her selections span underground house, techno, electro, minimal, and timeless classics, creating a sonic journey that bridges the past, present, and future. Asha also has a deep love for ambient and downtempo records, which she occasionally weaves into her performances for a unique touch.

the whole biography
Jay Prouty (Brooklyn Sway, Praxis, Dojo Sessions, Cenote Records, NYC) Frankie Knuckles once said: “The minute you think you’re greater than the music you’re finished”. Most of us are still trying to identify the description of the term underground in today’s diversified world of electronic music, but Jay has mastered the description. His dj sets are a constant reminder that music is greater than us. Jay is a house music dj, producer, and vinyl connoisseur with over 20 years of experience, currently living in Brooklyn, NYC. He relocated to the Big Apple from Boston where he played an integral role in the development of the house music scene by exposing the city to new and up-coming artists: including first appearances by Booka Shade, Peace Division, Seth Troxler, Dyed Soundorom, and many more. As a dj, Jay held residencies at some of Boston’s most prominent clubs inducing Avalon and Rise Afterhours. Currently Jay is a regularly in the NYC and Washington DC club scenes with previous appearances at Output and regular appearances at TBA Brooklyn and Flash in DC, where he hosts a monthly event titled “Brooklyn Sway”, which showcases local Brooklyn underground heads. His all vinyl dj sets are a journey through the history of house music, weaving in the old with the new, with a focus on hypnotic rhythms and old skool acapellas. His recent production efforts include a well-received vinyl only EP titled "Dojo Sessions Vol. 1" with David Paglia, a single titled "Style" released on Boston-based Cenote records, a single on Soul Clap’s sister label and compilation DJ’s for Climate Change titled “Pelican”, a forthcoming remix for Brooklyn based band Kamalata, as well as an EP with Brooklyn-based artist After Touch. www.soundcloud.com/jayprouty http://cenoterecords.com/artist/jay-prouty/ Dojo Sessions Vol.1 https://soundcloud.com/davidpaglia/sets/dojo-sessions-volume-1-dojo-vinyl Style (Cenote Records) https://www.beatport.com/track/style-original-mix/7081897House on 8, Acid House on 4, Minimal on 3 and Tech House on 3. styles on their catalogued releasesTheir RA profile lists Cenote Records.Recently at Moondog Hifi, Apollo Studio, Signal · often with Kevin Osha, Vivian Wang, Connie, none of them here that night
