Edison
-“I find out what the world needs, then I proceed to invent.”-Thomas Edison
“The Age of Electric Light and Power” gave birth to many of the inventions that sustain us in this day and age, but none so essential as the music of DJ Edison. Hailing from one of the originating cities of House music, Detroit, Edison brings inventive, funk infused creativity to his beats. Taking the kick drum from disco and sprinkling it with a little funk and soul, this Motor City DJ is a sought-after presence in the city of Motown; he lends his name to many a label, Disfresh, Radstack and Dug Recs.
The inventor of the “sound writer” did nothing so important than to start us on the journey led by DJ Edison, as exactly 125 years after the invention of the phonograph we were brought into the vicinity of his unique sound. Since 2002, Edison has brought his presence and his music to the scene, and both get the party started, and keep it going strong, no matter the time of day or night. He resides with The Detroit House Collective, coming soon to your city to bring the noise. In essence, he found out what the world needed, and then proceeded to invent.
Enjoi
Kyle Davis aka enjoi, has had a long love affair with music. It all started with listening to mo-town classics and oldies as child with his father, and evolved into playing various musical instruments throughout his school years. Kyle’s experiences as a bassist for several punk/hardcore bands with his friends gave him a desire for high energy music while his time as a Jazz bassist in school helped develop his love for soulful music. When Kyle was introduced to the electronic music scene in Detroit he knew that DJ'ing was the next step in his musical career. With his exposure to different genres of electronic music he realized he had a true passion for house music. When you see Kyle you can expect all sorts of different house genres ranging from jackin/soulful to electro/fidget house. Kyle has spun along side such great Detroit DJ's as Terrence Parker, DJ Jacq, Minx, T.Linder, and DJ Seoul. Aside from being a member of the Detroit House Collective, Kyle also helps manage SuckerPunch! Productions with his partner in crime EKEM. As a rising dj in the Detroit electronic scene enjoi is certainly someone to keep your eyes and ears on. No matter what genre of house he decides to spin you are guaranteed a high energy set that will make you dance the night away.
The Deaken
Chris was born and raised just 10 min south of downtown Detroit. Brought up on the sounds of Motown's R&B and Soul, he was first introduced to electronic music by his older brother, who got him watching the MTV show Amped. It wasn't until '97 that he went to his first underground electronic event at the Old East Town Theatre on Harper and Van Dyke. It didn't take long after walking through the doors for him to realize that this was something he really wanted to become a part of. In late '99 he decided that he wanted to give DJ'ing a try. Inspired by the then thriving detroit trance scene, he started playing progressive music at house parties and a few after-hour events. As he grew older, his taste in music started to mature and turn back to the soulful sounds of what he grew up on
