Welcome 2 Detroit

Jay Dee - Welcome 2 Detroit

So we got a little theme this coming week, we'll update daily with a track representing the Detroit. There's just so much great music coming from the Motor City that it's hard to boil it down to seven posts, but that's what we're gonna do so stick around cause we'll have music by artists ranging from The Spinners to Slum Village.

We thought it would be fitting to start off with one of the dopest producers from Detroit, the one and only Jay Dee. Just a short little intro track that gets us in the mood.

Theo Parrish - Falling Up

Of course we won't leave you hanging with just this 50 second track, we also got a much longer tune by the genius Theo Parrish. This track appeared on the compilation Detroit Beatdown vol. 1 and even though it's 12 minutes long, I wouldn't have minded it one bit if it would have lasted even longer. That rhodes sounds just so magical. If you don't know Theo Parrish go check his albums right now or some of the releases on his Sound Signature label, you're about to discover some briliant music.

You can order the Detroit Beatdown compilation here.

As if that wasn't enough the guy's a superb DJ as well, the Dutch Rush Hour site has a great set by him online, highly reccomended.
Just click here to check the set.
