Theo Parrish announces Dj-Kicks Detroit Forward 2
Comp promises Detroit exclusives galore
Theo Parrish has announced a triple vinyl, double CD Dj-Kicks session packed with Detroit exclusives.
DJ-Kicks: Detroit Forward 2 is released by Berlin’s !K7 label on October 28, with ‘Moonlite’ by Ian Fink being shared as a taster.
Theo Parrish said of the collection: “Detroit creates. But rarely imitates. Why? We hear and see many from other places do that with what we originate. No need to follow. Get it straight. In the Great Lakes there’s always more under the surface – more than what appears to penetrate the top layer of attention and recognition. What about those that defy tradition? Those that sidestep the inaccurate definitions often given from outside positions? This is that evidence. Enjoy.”
