Motor City Underground (Ballroom Stage)
An aggressive force in the Michigan bass landscape known for high-octane, underground delivery. Blending heavy, neck-snapping dubstep rhythms, riddim stompers, and dark, industrial aesthetics, Nicholas Coombs curates a relentless dancefloor energy under the Grime Mode moniker, designed for full crowd immersion and heavy bass purists.
A commanding presence behind the decks, steering crowds through the deepest pockets of halftime bass and underground dubstep. Known for high-energy crowd control and smooth structural transitions, La Captain grounds the room with massive sub-frequencies and hard-hitting rhythmic execution.
DET DNB TANGENT GALLERY STAGE
A foundational veteran and original member of Chicago’s legendary MIA Drum & Bass crew. Renowned for sharp technical chopping and deep crate-digging authority, Jeremy Long brings decades of authentic Midwest underground culture to the decks, delivering a ruthless, masterclass selection of classic rave energy and rolling breakbeats.
A dynamic selector tracking across the deeper, atmospheric elements of bass music and dark electronic design. Jozef focuses heavily on building intense room energy, locking audiences into heavy groove structures and driving baselines that bridge the gap between underground aesthetics and peak-time warehouse rave energy.
The driving creative engine behind the DET DNB movement. Operating as a live hybrid performer, JJ JET fuses complex deck-mixing with on-the-fly hardware loop manipulation and live vocal MCing. Bringing years of professional recording and studio mastering precision directly to the stage, his sets bypass stock sample loops for a completely raw, authentic, and physically imposing low-end experience.
Born in England and raised in Detroit, Mr. Twista is a premier vinyl purist with over two decades behind the decks and the respected founder of Mix Detroit. Known widely among selectors as a technical mentor, his seamless, instinct-driven mixing transitions effortlessly between rolling Drum & Bass blenders, UK Garage, and classic techno—relying 100% on the true craft of wax.
A versatile selector widely known for dropping heavy sub-frequencies across the bass music spectrum. For this special night, Darr is crossing over to step behind the decks with the DET DNB crew, delivering a high-energy, heavy-hitting set of rolling Drum and Bass designed to test the venue's sound system.
