LIVE IN DETROIT - MOTOR - NOVEMBER 25, 1998 - From the lost DAT tapes, another beautiful find.  From the five year residency I had in Detroit at the legendary MOTOR LOUNGE (1997-2001) - A special HOUSE set which was prepared for a Wednesday Night, the night before Thanksgiving.  House Heads will instantly notice a level of higher intelligence reserved for fans of Derrick Carter, Doc Martin, Mark Farina, Little Louie Vega, etc.  It's the essence of proper tuneage in an era which relied on vinyl.  I went on to win Detroit METRO's favorite CLUB DJ of 1999 for constantly packing MOTOR month after month which went on for almost 5 years.  Great times, Great people.



LIVE IN DETROIT - MOTOR - NOVEMBER 25, 1998

Everyone is getting spoiled with so much talent doing their thing.  Tons of good music being played right now.  For me this cannot be compared to anything else.  Factory Mix-Tapes is now at 31 years old.  And with that came the experience of a life time.   But the underground remains timeless.  I dare to be different.  In these 77 minutes I take riska and I play new music.  Some stuff is my own & some isn't.  

I don't do this for fame or for money.  I do it as a means for survival, for without it, I would not have any reason to continue on day after day.  The music really does heal and makes me have a sense of purpose.  I'm good right now.  You will be to if you believe.;

The news of Steven Sowers passing hit me hard.  He was very passionate about the music and that made Motor one of the most recognized venues in the world for DJ Culture.  Heavy Hitters and most of Detroit's best local talent played regularly.  So many friendships & alliance's happened there.  It really made Detroit a second home to me.  Looking back my monthly residency began at the opening in 1996 and ran the course of 5 years.   I had a style of techno which was slightly twisted - a harder version of midwest funk like Drop Bass and a ton of German Underground with that Brooklyn style.   This never went away folks.  It's 2020 in the middle of a pandemic and my style stayed true.  Give it a good listen, I am sure you will agree.

FRANKIE BONES LIVE @ TNL - September 10th, 2020

THE BELLS / PURPOSE MAKER / JEFF MILLS / AXIS - Jeff Mills flagship track from Kat Moda was one of the finest techno releases of the 1990's.  It's pretty much Holy Grail.  So first things first, I've been spending most of my free time making music.  Sometimes I get lucky.  In fact if this version didn't excell while I was creating it, I would have simply walked away and left it alone.  But it began to sound really good & punchy.  I started feeling like Jeff would really enjoy it.  

I mean "Let No Man Put Asunder" is one of the most sampled vocals of all time.  But the placement of the words in this one, I heard it in an old 2011 track by Butch, and knew it would accent The Bells well.  It's really subjective but I will leave it up to you.   Enjoy.
