Artist: dj bone


DJ Bone is one of Detroit's most coveted underground vinyl technicians. This very talented and highly sought after Artist plays events and clubs worldwide, has held a residency position at four of Detroit's top clubs and produces music inspired by the city in which he lives, Detroit. His record labels Subject Detroit and Encounter are futuristic and unearthly while still displaying the true essence of Detroit's Techno Soul.

Bone experienced the emotion, passion and energy of Detroit Techno first hand at the infamous Music Institute. What he witnessed there, along with the eclectic mix of music filling Detroit's airwaves by the legendary Electrifyin' Mojo and The Wizard, along with Detroit's industrial backdrop, would serve to be Bone's main influences.

Bone began his DJ career spinning groundbreaking sets weekly at The Love Club (The Shelter). From there he gained a dedicated following which eventually led to him playing at three different clubs five nights a week as well as several underground parties in Detroit. An invitation to provide fortnightly, live mixes for the Deep Space Radio show on 107.5 in Detroit was also extended.

After hearing Bone in Detroit (1996 Love Club Anniversary Party) Laurent Garnier booked him to headline at the Rex Club in Paris. Soon after word spread and Bone was invited to play events all over Europe. He gained momentum and began performing in locations such as Tokyo, Slovenia, and Mexico to name a few.

Observing a lack of electronic music, which fit his style, led Bone to produce his own original songs to incorporate into his funky and eclectic sets. He took it a step further and started his labels Subject Detroit and Encounter focusing on true Sonic Soul.

In late 1997, Bone began his residency at the Motor Lounge in Hamtramck (bordering Detroit on all sides) pioneering an underground Detroit Techno night. Within a month, the number of Bone's weekly session attendees topped 1,000 as well as tens of thousands of others tuning in to his live set broadcast on the radio every Friday from midnight until 2 am (87.9 FM). Always looking to expand minds and move bodies, Bone took on the challenge avoided by so many DJ's before him familiar with Detroit by name only. For nearly three years, he amazed his crowds, which included out-of-towners from as far as Japan and Australia alongside his Detroit faithful. Unfortunately, due to Motor's attempt to exploit what Bone had founded and loved, he decided to depart from the club and his residency.

Bone also has performed during concept car shows at the North American International Auto Show (twice), the Cadillac Concept car unveiling in Geneva, Switzerland the 2000-2002 DEMF, fashion events and was asked to serve as a Board Member for the 2002 DEMF.

Observing the trend of producers being booked to spin as opposed to actual DJ's fueled Bone to go against the grain and establish himself as a DJ primarily. He believes that an individual's talent should speak for it and not be overshadowed or misconstrued by hype.

Bone is currently focussing his attention on his record labels (Subject Detroit and Encounter), concentrating on pushing the imaginations of those who live for a true underground vibe.

icon_worship.gif much respect!!!

check the latest dj bone attacks:

http://www.7mzdt.com/subjectdetroit/mp3/Attack12-FreshOldAttack.mp3

I recently listened a previous attack-set (number 8 I think), which was quite pounding techno, now he brings a really cool electro / disco-set. great!!

i really appreciate it when an artist doesn't confine himself to one specific sound or "hokje", but keeps a broad view on music. props for dj bone here! icon_cool.gif


damn, would like to see him in the gashouder.. i'm sure he would know how to rock that joint!!

dj bone as a producer really interests me more. really love those subject detroit releases he did. really good proper techno. to me he definetly proved himself as the best techno producer of 2004.

especially those tribal records he produced....he is by far the only producer that i know that can produce tribal techno without making it sound cheesy, easy or boring. instead he makes it either really raw or really soulful.

why so serious?

"Underground is basically being able to choose for yourself what you enjoy, not having it forced on you, not being fooled. Swindled into believing something that’s hype, not talent. Underground has talent. Underground can move in mysterious ways and still get the job done, even more so than someone in the mainstream. It’s covert – it’s not to be seen – it’s not for everyone to put a face on it and market it to the masses. Being in a magazine every month, every week, and being just "entertainment" and not being there for a purpose ... that’s not underground. I set the ball for people to spike sometimes; They look at the dunk – they don’t see the alley-oop. That’s the sentence I chose, because I’m underground." DJ Bone, Detroit

hmm, sounds a bit "pretentieus" to me. but well, that's part of the detroit-attitude I assume...

Bone is cool, his set at Doornroosje was one of the best quality techno sets I heard in Holland this year! His productions are also very good, looking forward to see him spinning again at ILT !

Yes, and i sure also agree with you on some pretentious being in it, but 4 my feeling that does apply then on basicly these 2 lines; the " because I’m underground " part and the "that’s not underground. "

Cuz looking at the rest of text, i personally think it is/was a very nice way to put it all in words.. Specially the "dunk vs alley-oop" was "treffend" (again IMO) .. Show vs Quality? Hell yeah .. but ok, also that is a dangerous thing to say offcourse,cuz where/what are + who sets the standards?! It will always be with a major part of own personal taste spiced, i think is fair to say. Don't you think? icon_whistle.gif

The "underground" word/term/name/style/blabla/whatever ppl wanna tag it etc. will always stay something they can never really describe the 100%. (Untaggable YO!)
-> And yeah,my ass then?? Yes,in my name i use it (4 over a decade and waaay before forumsshitz) but NO; any meaning the U-word maybe had for me years ago (a.. "wrong' meaning/view i put with it.. way i see it now) has faded,cuz it is not about the word itself i think now.. A feeling you have (i have) but its everywhere/can be anything..
Better emphasise the 079 part PLZ! most ppl do the opposite though.. but oki icon_wink.gif
Used this combi since a graff-crew i was in with few lads, end of 80's and.. well, only reason it stays like this, is most ppl know me now like this.. (interesting info huh? icon_razz.gif)
