their own biography
the whole biography
From an early age, surrounded by such influential creatives, Dantiez knew music was the way for him. Inspired by his generation’s reaction to electronica, Dantiez completely immersed himself in production and DJing. Directly connected to Detroit’s rich musical heritage, he learnt from his dad and fellow Techno innovators: Derrick May and Juan Atkins, whilst drawing further inspiration from the likes of Marco Carola, Seth Troxler, Richie Hawtin and Dubfire. From this Dantiez honed his craft, with songs beginning to reflect all sides of his taste pallet: energetic, Detroit-infused, underground but with a Pop vibe that’s still rooted in Tech-House and Techno. These early explorations paid off. Dantiez secured tracks on esteemed labels, most notably: Defected, Toolroom, Nervous and of course KMS, the legendary label owned by his father, which Dantiez helped relaunch and now heads its A&R department. Alongside these production credentials, Dantiez is a busy touring DJ with many high-profile events under his belt, like Boiler Room and Movement Electronic Music Festival. Dantiez has also earned his stripes as an in demand remixer, even being asked to reinvent material by childhood heroes: Green Velvet and Carl Craig.Their RA profile lists Defected Records, King Street Sounds, Armada Music, Stripped Recordings and 6 more.Recently at Paragon, Industry City, SILO · often with Viiq, Sumant, none of them here that night

the whole biography
DJ RaQuel is the artist alias of NYC/LA based DJ and producer James Outlaw, a selector with over 25 years behind the decks who is renowned for meticulously programmed sets that weave unexpected tracks into cohesive late-night dance floor journeys. Originally emerging in the late 1990s LA club circuit under the name James Rockwell, RaQuel began as a hip-hop DJ before discovering the creative freedom of the LA underground warehouse scene. That shift shaped his sound: basement and warehouse music, informed by years spent collecting soul, disco, and dance-floor R&B. RaQuel is also one half of the production duo gem1n1seven, whose debut track Spaceflight was released on the influential New York label, Plant Music, founded by NY Legend Stretch Armstrong and Dominique Keegan of The Glass. The record received international support and was featured on BBC Radio 1’s Essential Mix in 2015.Their RA profile lists Plant Music.Last at Paragon in Jul · often with Sumant, Viiq, none of them here that night
