Detroit Side

Detroit Side is the house and techno label brainchild of Italian based producer and DJ Giacomo Pellegrino. Founded in late 2016, this independent label's mission is clear. To champion high quality music and respected live events versus a disjointed discography and uninspiring parties. Detroit inspired, with a deep passion to be presented with a music first approach, the label strives to stay true to the underground scene and sound. While still early in the label's history, Detroit Side has already forged a strong foundation in their half decade existence. Vibrant artists like Delano Smith, Ocu, Enrico Mantini, Dixia Sirong, Monika Ross, Hansel!, Bassa Clan and Pellegrino himself, have all made key contributions to the genesis of the imprint. The list of remixers is equally as robust and carefully chosen. Names like S.A.M., Franck Roger, Nick Beringer, Julien Sandre, Moreon & Baffa among others, have lent their talents to heighten the status and grow the reach. Presented only on vinyl, the focus on integrity from Giacomo Pellegrino and Detroit Side is for an organic and natural growth versus some kind of lackluster social media approach or promotion that could get lost in the scrolling. This mantra carries over to their high-spirited parties as well. Encouraging their artists to express themselves through their sounds in the most optimum live environments they can find. The attendees to these parties certainly appreciate the attention to these extra details making them a trusted name in the club circuit. The sound of label is highly-addictive tracky pieces with the perfect amount of tech and atmospheric minimalism that works ideal for energetic dancefloors. Top quality music that hardly ever leaves your Dj record box unless you have some friends over to your house to hear some examples at the Detroit Side events, they sadly missed. With some key releases planned for the near future and the coming event's as exciting as ever, Detroit Side is primed to be a label you want to keep a close watch on.
