In 2006 Grossberger went to the Detroit Electronic Music Festival for the first time, and was generally underwhelmed by the festival itself. But the two afterparties he was lucky enough to attend completely changed his life. This mix is a tribute to Rick Wilhite, Delano Smith, Norm Talley, Jus-Ed, and the other great dj’s and people he met during the Colonel Abrams birthday party and the Detroit Beatdown party the following night. The tracks in this mix mostly came out afterward, but the vibe is the same.

Do you remember the first time you fell in love with music? Before the money people moved in and your favorite scene lost its innocence and became a tired formula? Grossberger does, 'coz he's a bit of an old sod. But with this mix he hopes to cast a spell so that the next (r)evolution in music and culture doesn't get co-opted so easily by the Man!
