Drivetrain
Derrick Thompson's drving tech-house has appeared on labels such as Plink Plonk, End Recordings, and his own Soiree. It's best listened to on a large system in a sweaty warehouse between the hours of 3 and 5 A.M.



St. Andy
St. Andy sounds like Prince run through the Detroit techno blender with lots of tribal congas, techy sounds, and funkiness going on. St. Andy definitely takes the DJs approach to production dropping bass kicks and providing space and dynamic change in his tracks like few producers do.
