Detroit's own Booty Bass pioneer DJ Assault has had a large hand in bringing booty music, from the urban streets of Detroit to the suburban club circuit. The incorporation of electro beats with hardcore, sometimes pornographic lyrics, is what makes ghetto-house highly distinguishable from its other techno cousins.

His track "Ass -N- Titties" (Released in on his self run Jefferson Ave label ) featured in a scene in 22 Jump Street an American comedy film directed by Phil Lord and Christopher Miller. The film was released on June 13, 2014, by Columbia Pictures and Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, received generally positive reviews, and earned over $308 million at the box office.

Another early DJ Assault track, ‘Tear Da Club Up’, was recently sampled by Darius Syrossian who used Dj Assault’s vocal to make it a house track. Darius made the track in the summer of 2013 especially for his BBC 1 essential mix. The track is being played from Ibiza to Japan, by many underground house deejays including Dirty Bird label boss and international deejay / producer Claude Von Stroke, who seems to make it his trademark to insert ghetto-bass elements into his house sets.

Shimmy Rivers And And Canal formed in a rush with five people, none of whom are still members or are in fact known to any of the current line up. Shimmy Rivers And And Canal started in error and continued thereafter.

As the unformed band disbanded further, a drunken barmaid put a CD in the post which had nothing to do with Shimmy Rivers And And Canal, but for some reason had their name on it. Ed Baxter, head of Resonance FM took to the sound of that CD like a duck to whatever, and spectacularly asked to release it, just so he could hand out copies to anyone he liked. He also asked if Shimmy would play at the Birthday Resonancy Gala in the Conway Hall. Someone else found Ed’s reply and, seeing an opportunity, answered positively. A band was assembled sharpish and played that bash, convincing sundry bystanders that what they were witnessing was ‘Shimmy Rivers And And Canal’. From then on that was that. Shimmy Rivers proceeded with a regular assault on Resonance FM with ‘Daddy Said So Land’, which was broadcast for months, and got plenty of seriously good bands to play live on the radio, only to be talked over by dimwits.

Shimmy Rivers And And Canal finger lots of pies. Between them they run/ ran/ ruin the ‘Daddy Said So Land’ radio show, the Chubby Nest record label, and the Random Colours recording studio.

Into The Moss is broadcast Fridays at 17:15 (repeated Saturdays at 11:45) on Resonance FM 104.4 in the London area and online at www.resonancefm.com
