So grateful to Mike for giving me that opportunity. What a great article too…
“If you’re a Generation Xer from Detroit, you probably associate ghettotech with sweaty nights jitting at Maxi’s in the ’90s to partying at River Rock in the mid-2000s,” contributor Kahn Santori Davison () writes of the homegrown genre that mixes hip-hop, house, and techno and became the soundtrack to “every night club, weekend at Belle Isle, and backyard barbecue.”
HiTech () “has taken the baton, which has made them a representation of the past, present, and future slice of Detroit music,” he adds.
