Dantiez, born and bred in Michigan, is the son of Techno pioneer Kevin Saunderson and singer / songwriter Ann Saunderson. 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 was soon a busy touring DJ with many high-profile events under his belt, like Boiler Room and Movement Electronic Music Festival. Dantiez also earned his stripes as an in demand remixer, even asked to reinvent material by childhood heroes: Green Velvet and Carl Craig. 

This young man undoubtably knows what he wants and where he’s going, “Ultimately the sky’s the limit... I hope to keep travelling the world, sharing my music and good vibes with others”.

Platinum-selling recording artist, label boss, festival promoter, true innovator in the pantheon of popular music, cultural champion, cracking DJ: there’s a lot to be said about Kevin Saunderson.

His influence runs deep, through both adopted hometown of Detroit, and music culture as a whole: as one of the Belleville Three, the high school trio which also includes Juan Atkins and Derrick May, he irreparably changed the face of electronic music; with Inner City, he gave it some of its most memorable tunes. 

The genesis of today’s enormous techno scene can be retraced straight to Kevin, Derrick and Juan, as their formative experiments on rudimentary hardware sketched a blueprint for a genre that was yet to exist. By absorbing Kraftwerk, cutting-edge funk, local radio stalwart The Electrifying Mojo’s electicism, and all manner of new synthesiser and drum machine-led pop music, the Belleville Three broke new ground as musicians and DJs in the 80s. 

Saunderson’s comparatively late start as a producer – kicking off in ’87 under the moniker of Kreem, with E-Dancer and Reese two of the more well-known names to follow – inadvertently gifted him a headstart. With the eruption of house music a few hours down the I-94 in Chicago, Saunderson married Detroit’s raw sound to more tactile, pop-leaning sensibilities. Inner City was born, and global success followed.

Between “Big Fun”, “Good Life”, debut album Paradise and a number of follow-up singles, Inner City (Saunderson and vocalist Paris Grey) amassed 12 UK top 40 hits and over six million records sold worldwide during their peak. A dancefloor-dominating remix by Luciano in 2008, and a globetrotting reunion tour in 2012, underscores the longevity of Inner City’s classic sound. 

His nickname of ‘The Elevator’ is apt: for his role in transporting Detroit’s new sound to a wider audience; as anyone who has seen him perform live can attest, his high-energy, high-spirit and high-impact DJ sets; and for spending the past 35 years of his life progressing the culture he helped create. 

Operating in tandem to his golden run as a producer in the late 80s and early 90s, Saunderson’s own KMS record label – a remarkable 30 years strong in 2017 – has chronicled the early footsteps of R-Tyme, Blake Baxter, MK, Chez Damier, Derrick Carter, Bicep and even Saunderson’s son and regular DJ partner Dantiez more recently. 

A special 12” series in 2008 called History Elevate, released in tandem with fellow polymath Carl Craig’s Planet E label, brought contemporary names like Mathew Jonson, Simian Mobile Disco and Loco Dice into the fold, proving his nous for fostering relationships with each new wave to come through techno’s gates. 25th anniversary compilations and numerous reissues have followed suit. 

Saunderson has a behind-the-scenes role to play, too: he is intertwined with the history of Detroit’s flagship Movement (formerly Detroit Electronic Music Festival / Fuse-In). Having produced the event in the mid-2000s, the last handful of years have seen repeated invites from Movement to display his ORIGINS showcase at the festival, bringing acts like Delano Smith, Phuture and DJ Minx under his curatorial umbrella. 

And of course, with a stacked international touring schedule over the decades, playing in nearly every country and at nearly every festival or club worth mention, he has not stopped pushing the feeling of techno on and on. 

The Groove That Won’t Stop, indeed.

After 25 years behind the decks, J.Phlip still hasn't figured out how to crush the art of pretending she's doing something when she's not-so she just keeps busy actually mixing. She has built her rep on fearless, genre-melting sets packed with bass, acid, punk-electro, bootytech-whatever she damn well pleases. She flips the script-and sometimes the bird-as easily as she flips from 4/4 kicks to breakbeats, taking you on a sonic joyride with zero regard for speed limits. A founding Dirtybird original since 2006, J.Phlip didn't just help shape the label's sound-she nurtured its ride-or-die community, fiercely protecting its scrappy, open-hearted ethos. From the legendary SF Golden Gate BBQs to building Dirtybird Campout from the dirt up, she's been central to one of dance music's boldest and most beloved collectives. She's lit up everything from Movement Detroit to EDC, Fabric London to Space Ibiza, Coachella to your grandma's basement.

But screw the industry name game - sometimes Jess just wants to jump rope like it's middle school. She'll show up with ropes at festivals and kick off a Double Dutch session open to anyone. Her favorite spot is the Friendship cruise where shes backed by her East Bay ride-or-dies, the Twerkaholicz. Their booty-powered madness nearly broke Dirtybird Campout as they rolled in on a gold-plated "Twerkulator" bus, after J.
Phlip herself brought them into the flock in 2019. At Outside Lands, they co-created a show so far outside the box of today's "Dance Music / DJ culture" it shoved it off the rails - colliding fast-BPM beats, ass-jiggling acrobatics, and pure absurdity into a crowd-screaming blowout. Treefort in Boise got it! - the dancefloor snapped into two hours of unfiltered mosh-raving. Jess isn't here for your sunny-day vibes or safe dance moves. After far too many lost years-dragging herself through pandemic fallout-she's back to start some shit.

Canadian Jonny White, acting Head of No.19 Music, is now the lone force behind the influential project that began as a collaborative effort with long-time friend Kenny Glasgow in 2009. The prolific producer’s original production style landed Art Department at the forefront of a major underground music movement, transcending genre barriers and forever altering the landscape of dance music. Their game-changing contribution to electronic music has been undeniable, garnering accolades such as #1 track of the year at the Beatport Awards in 2011 and iTunes #2 “Best Electronic Album” of 2011. Notable mention in wide-spread press, including The Guardian, Rolling Stone, Billboard, Vogue, I:D, Nylon and Vibe Magazine who ranked art department the #2 DJ/Producers in the world in 2013, second only to Daft Punk, firmly established Art Department as a rarity in the world of electronic music.
