Hip hop perked the interest of Detroit’s Craig Gonzalez to vinyl at a young age, and underground parties in the 1990s soon catalyzed a lifelong fascination with DJing. Inspired by versatility, his self-taught techniques have grown from weaving rhythmic layers into powerful, personal narratives.

Influenced by the Mike Huckaby’s depth and the hypnotic craft of Donato Dozzy, Gonzalez has honed his own style from a global network of like-minded artists. Family, history, and culture that surrounds electronic music have been key to his deep sensibilities, which translate seamlessly across a dance floor.

In the beginning there was Detroit Techno and now there is Dubstep. Jason “Serax” Richards has been throwin down behind the decks since 98’ but formally moved onto the Dubstep scene in 2007 and has been hooked ever since. It’s not the same two-step either but hard-hitting basslines and dirty beats that dominate his tracks.   

Born and raised in Detroit and a self-taught DJ, Serax had the early influences of Jeff Mills and Mark Moss. His original mix was the “jump up style” of drum and bass but he quickly moved to harder beats and fell in love with the Reggae and Ragga DNB style. His Dubstep influences include Caspa, Rusko, Excision, Borgore, Datsik, Bar 9, Skream, 16 bit, Emalkay, MRK1, Reso, Ill Gates and Mistabishi.    

Serax has played venues spanning the United States, spinning alongside the likes of Rusko, Datsik, Borgore, Vaski, NTRLD, Capital J, HULK, AK1200, Dieselboy, ODI, Freaky Flow, Aphrodite and Juan Atkins. Some as Motor Lounge, St. Andrew's, Alvins (D'Jungle), Clutch Cargo's, Velvet Lounge, Solar at Blind pig in Ann Arbor, Bassline Monday's @ Necto, The labyrinth below city club, The Works, The Packard plant, Bleu, Foran's, 10 Critics Oslo and many more.  That’s in addition to residency stints and various after-hour venues in Detroit and Ann Arbor.   

After a brief hiatus, Serax is back on the scene with the same “wobble swagga” as before, delivering pure bass pleasure and killin’ it for dubsteppers and drum and bass junkies alike.    
 

[Michigander / Craigie Knowes / Upstairs Asylum]
Meet Brian Kage: an audio architect of the Detroit’s ongoing renaissance.  Kage’s career has been a love letter to authentic Detroit Techno, 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, Freerange, Craigie Knowes, Upstairs Asylum, Rekids, FXHE, Planet-E, Beretta Music and more, making him an in-demand name in the techno and house world. 

Kage’s debut album, Timeless Times, is exactly what it promises—a time-traveling journey through Detroit’s underground, blending classic house grooves with a fresh techno edge. This 19-track ride has received praise from Resident Advisor, BanTanTan, Blues & Soul UK, and others.

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 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.

Through his beats, projects, and mentorship, Brian Kage stands as a cornerstone of Detroit’s evolving soundscape,—rooted in its storied past yet propelling it toward a dynamic future.
