Marcel Dettmann - www.myspace.com/marceldettmann
Ruff, rugged and raw. Mentioning Marcel Dettmann as well as his feeling for and vision of electronic music, his way of dealing with it, is impossible without these attributes. Whether you take his DJ sets (Marcel has been made a resident DJ at the old Ostgut and also at Berghain from the very start), Dettmann’s productions for the self-conducted MDR label, his remixes for the likes of Fever Ray, Junior Boys, Modeselektor as well as Scuba, or if nothing else his debut long player for Ostgut Ton into account, all the various contrasts and distinctions that come with it are manifested in these qualities.

Techno as Marcel Dettmann defines it, is neither a movement without history nor wistful nostalgia. In the hands of the Berliner, the well-known game of hi-hats, bass lines and kick drums draws its tension and momentum from a historically grown tradition and the conscious decision to break the rules. Reformation and solid construction outplays the use of any gimmicks. Dettmann pours Detroit’s oil into European engines, puts British bass music under the control of Chicago’s very own Jack, cuts classics with abstract nuances and connects yesterday with tomorrow and today. In the unrelenting manner of a great DJ, he generates moods and connections that are age- and classless, but never irrelevant or tasteless. Marcel Dettmann links up the art of improvisation with careful preparation and finally gives techno some of its often painfully missed serious physical constitution back.

DJ HouseShoes - www.djhousehsoes.com
Detroit Hip Hop's Ambassador to the World. Michael "House Shoes" Buchanan has been an integral part of the long burgeoning Motown resurgence. Ask the people coming out of Detroit and they will confirm all of this. House Shoes, a resident DJ at the Hip Hop staple St. Andrews Hall from 1994-2004, has had personal influence over (at least) a full generation of emcees, producers, and then-future-DJs.

Through House Shoes Recordings he pressed the now classic Jay Dee "Unreleased EP" (1996), Phat Kat – "Dedication To The Suckers" 12” (1999), and House Shoes – "Loungin’ (2004). The most recent House Shoes Recordings release "The King James Version Vol. 1" (2008), his tribute to the late James “Jay Dee / J Dilla” Yancey, has sold well independently and received rave reviews.

As a DJ, Shoes has toured extensively throughout the United States and Europe with Hip Hop acts Percee P, Guilty Simpson, Illa J, Exile, Aloe Blacc, Phat Kat, Slum Village and Elzhi to name a few as well as on his own. He has garnered the respect of acts far outside the scope of Detroit Hip Hop by taking each of his audiences somewhere they never planned to go, and then showing them why they should never want to leave.

As a producer House Shoes has worked with some of Detroit’s elite musicians and emcees to help contribute to the soundtrack of his city. From the late and revered J Dilla and Big Proof, to Elzhi (Slum Village), Guilty Simpson (Stones Throw Records), Black Milk (Fat Beats Records), Ty & Kory (Buddha Brown / Sony), Now On (A-Side Worldwide), Phat Kat, Invincible, Finale, Big Tone, Ta’Raach, Marv Won, Danny Brown, and 14KT.

House Shoes’ podcast (shoeshouse.podomatic.com) boasts holding one of the top 50 podcast portals (60,000+ subscribers) on a site of tens of thousands of hosted podcasts.

He currently lives and works out of Los Angeles, California.

It's going to be absolutely rammed, but would still love to be back in Dublin for it.

Unfortunately that's why this is in the maybe pile. TP basement is too small for some gigs. Never helped by often having "meh" acts on elsewhere in the venue so they let full capacity in the door, nobody can move in the basement and there's a dozen people in the stage and less than half that in the loft.
