Notes
In The Dark
In the dark is a reality, a small example of how much music and cultural activity thrives in Detroit.
All the artists involved in this project are essential creators and perpetuators of the musical heritage of the motor city.
Everyday and night, through their hands, ears and mouths, the future of Detroit's music is being shaped.
Nobody can take that away from them.
All we can do is listen and dance in the darkness of a sweaty club.

Reviews
Rick The Godson Wilhite – 'City Bar Reopen "Live" Dancing' is a walk through time, just put it on and close your eyes, turn the phone off, and listen to the history. The goosebumps never lie.- quite simply essential, if you're into slow thumping detroit house music and you don't have this give yourself a slap and purchase without looking back, well worth the £20 asking price
This is one of the greatest collections of beatdown style Detroit sounds. I'm a huge advocate for beatdown being recognized as a unique genre. It shouldn't so much be listed as deep house since the bpms are much slower on a lot of the tracks and beatdown has a harder more aggressive,and often darker, techno edge to it. This compilation is a great example of this unique and intoxicating genre.
Courtney Jackson's Everybody is so lovely. I just absolutely love it. I keep hoping for more to come forth from here,but alas my wishes have not come true yet.
Marcellus Malik Pittman has become one of my new favorites along side my most favorite Theo Parrish,who btw is not on this comp.
Too bad downloads are killing music. Damn devil format that has made music so convenient,but ruined it for underground releases such as this to be more worth while.
