Freebeat Shubaka Downbeat José Rico has earned an international reputation as a producer (and DJ) with his refined and elegant combination of downtempo rhythms with dub, incorporating influences from house, American techno and 1990s European abstract electronica. He currently runs the Downbeat and Freebeat labels, and has worked with such renowned producers as Ron Trent, Mike Huckaby, DJ F, Specter and Leonid. His releases on international labels include Dubvolution (Into the Deep Rec), Dreams With The Mirror Planet ( Off Minor) a records which has enjoyed excellent reviews and which figured among the ten best records of 2016 in lists from respected names such as Amoeba Music. In love with analogue sound, his live performances of synthesised music along with other electronic instruments are technically impeccable. José Rico lives by and for music. Music isn’t meant to be at a consistent volume and flat frequency. It’s meant to be dynamic, to move, to fall and rise and to take you with it, physically and emotionally. Otherwise it literally is just background noise.

Jose Rico

Tastemaker, Educator, Sound Designer, and Motor City Proponet. Mike Huckaby has done much for Detroit electronic music. The man behind the once legendary Record Time store has gathered an encyclopedic knowledge of music. He is one of those guys who knows all the roots and culture of electronic dance music. He is a person who can see beyond the hype and divisions within the scene. Mike knows exactly what the music is. Mike Huckaby has become the busiest remixer from Detroit in the past few years. Mike has been busy producing music on his two labels, Deep Transportation, and S Y N T H, which are well known amongst underground djs worldwide. With highly acclaimed deep house productions and remixes for Deepchord, Juan Atkins, Vladislav Delay, Pole, Loco Dice, LoSoul, and Pacou (just  to name a few). Mike sees no end in the near future.  Furthermore, Mike Huckaby has been touring, djing, and teaching music production with Native Instruments and Ableton software at Youthville, and around the globe extensively. When the discussion of the Detroit / Berlin connection comes to mind, Tresor or Hardwax is usually discussed. But the Detroit / Berlin connection of the millenium and beyond is taking place at Youthville with the assistance of Ableton and Native Instruments, and the work Mike is doing there. Mike brings the Detroit sound of deep house and techno with him. He knows the balance between deep house and techno like no other. Promoters know that they can put Mike Huckaby in any room.
