Dj 3000 Vinyl

Juncaj discovered the rich history of Detroit Techno by going straight to the source. Through a friend “DJ Bone” he was introduced to the world of 2030, one of Detroit's most famous outlets for electronic music, and by association, introduced to the world of Underground Resistance. He was initiated into the Submerge crew and never looked back. He began DJ'ing around Detroit and was introduced to the world via the 'Somewhere in Detroit' mix series on Submerge Recordings. The SID mix was the world’s first introduction to DJ 3000.

UR and Submerge had just relocated their headquarters to 3000 W. Grand Boulevard in Detroit, so in the honor of that, and to let the world know that Juncaj was part of delivering the sound of Submerge and UR to the masses, he was dudded DJ 3000. Since the release of the SID mix series, as well as with the success of his 'Electric Soul' and 'True Colors”, DJ 3000 decided it was time to start his own label Motech in 2002.
