FWM Radio w/ Stefan Ringer - November 2022

There is a certain type of artist that transcends generational and artistic boundaries, that channels their experiences while simultaneously fostering an environment for others to thrive.

Kai Alcé is a prime example, someone who witnessed the genesis of Detroit’s electronic musical landscape and strives to keep that spirit alive. For him it is imperative to pass on the lessons he has learned, to create a space where deep soulful vibes can reverberate while honoring the African Diaspora roots of dance music’s culture.

NDATL stands for the cities that Kai has called home and have played a role in his musical development: New York, Detroit, ATLanta.
The label and production company reflects the tone of each city in its input to the electronic music canon. It has not only been a vehicle for his own productions but a home for releases from contemporaries, personal heroes and up-and-coming artists such as Javonntte, ED Nine & Roberta. Never one to be content with the status quo, Kai’s dedication to the underground combined with his warm demeanor has made him a mentor to young Atlanta based artists such as Ash Lauryn, Stefan Ringer and Byron the Aquarius.

Kai’s long running party at The Sound Table, Distinctive, would act as a hub for house music over the last decade and put him in touch with the local youth. Concurrently it was his annual party back in Detroit that would become a Mecca for househeads. Deep Detroit is known for being one of the go to events for Memorial Day weekend electronic music festival Movement. What started as a reunion party for the Music Institute has become a pilgrimage and right of passage where the devoted can purchase highly coveted, limited edition vinyl-only releases from the party’s musical guests.

Never one to stay static he has recently curated a limited run of 7” House tracks with DJ Spinna for BBE Music and even stepped into the world of fashion. Kai has always been known for his vibrant fashion, consistently being complimented on his stylish glasses that match his outfits. Years of people inquiring about obtaining similar spectacles has resulted in the boutique Kai Alcé Eyewear line. “The Kaizer” never stops moving. A love of life, mixed with his flair for originality, willingness to experiment and devotion to the dancefloor has cemented his place as a pillar in American dance music history. Whatever comes next from Mr. Alcé, you can be assured that it will be classy, soulful, fulfilling and funky.

Stay tuned – you never know what the man will have for you next!

Being the main A+R and creative mind behind DTW, the label has flourished tremendously over the past 5 years, cementing its place as one of the go-to labels out of South East Asia.

His musical selections, which traverses across an extensive spectrum from deep jazz to the freshest cuts have left many indelible marks on the dancefloors. A highly respected digger who is also known by many in the circuit for his extensive musical knowledge, technically astute skills, and blends, it’s no surprise that he has warmed up or shared the stage with Bradley Zero, Lefto, HAAI, Pearson Sound, the late Mike Huckaby and many more.
