For DJ Darryl G it started out with a love of music and mixing on a Cassette Tapes. Later, Darryl G went into his bedroom with 2 pieces of Vinyl and learned how to mix by playing the music and recording it. After a while he auditioned for WDRQ with one of those tapes when The Party Princess (Lisa Lisa) called and asked him to join the DRQ Alstars. Today, working with such DJs as John Collins & Stacey Hale, Darryl G is doing guest spots and holding down several residencies. His love of all different kinds of music continues to be a driving force behind the sound that Dj Darryl G brings to an event.
For as long as there is music and those who faithfully dance, there will always be a need for the Godmother of House Music, DJ Stacey “Hotwaxx” Hale. Detroit’s first female of house music plays dance floor bangers and orchestral melodies with live music fusions. Hotwaxx Hale has made a massive impact in the American music culture, whether it’s playing in famous theaters like the Apollo, or legendary underground dance music clubs like ‘Studio 54,’ and ‘The Warehouse.’ She also has an international presence, which includes past performances in London, Ibiza, Berlin, Amsterdam, France, Belgium, Mexixo, Toronto, and across the USA.
Hotwaxx Hale is the first female DJ who played house music on the radio in Detroit in the late 80s, and continues as a DJ to play a major role in curating the soundtrack of our lives for several decades. Thriving in the city that started techno, she somehow maintains a perfect flow by tastefully blending house and techno with funk, hip hop and Motown soul, which is why she continues to have a diverse, multi aged devoted following.
