one week away from our day party w/ Dantiez Saunderson, here’s what you need to know:
Detroit native Dantiez Saunderson stands at the intersection of legacy and innovation in electronic music. The son of techno pioneer Kevin Saunderson and acclaimed vocalist Ann Saunderson, Dantiez grew up immersed in the city’s iconic sound. But rather than follow in anyone’s footsteps, he’s carved out a path uniquely his own.
As both a DJ and producer, Dantiez blends the raw energy of Detroit techno with the groove of modern tech-house, building a discography that moves dancefloors while pushing the genre forward. His work has earned acclaim from across the scene, with Mixmag calling him “a bridge between Detroit’s techno heritage and the future of electronic music,” and Resident Advisor recognizing him as “a driving force in techno’s new era.”
Dantiez has released on powerhouse labels including Defected, Toolroom, Armada, Realm, and KMS Records, with support from artists such as Gorgon City, Green Velvet, Seth Troxler, and Idris Elba. As part of the legendary Inner City, he played a pivotal role in their 2020 comeback album We All Move Together, and continues to collaborate with Kevin Saunderson under E-Dancer.
