313 Connection

313 Connection are pleased to announce that @dj3000official will be our special guest at @lacheetahclub on Saturday 25 April. We’ve been looking forward to hosting him for a long time and are excited to finally make it happen. Born Franki Juncaj and raised in Hamtramck, Michigan, DJ 3000 came into techno straight at the source. Introduced to the world of @submerge313 and the @undergroundresistance313 collective through friends in Detroit, he quickly became part of that extended family. UR co-founder Mike Banks @undergroundresistance003 famously gave Juncaj his DJ name after the collective moved their headquarters to 3000 W. Grand Boulevard - a moment that cemented his connection to the Detroit techno lineage. While deeply rooted in the Detroit scene, DJ 3000 has spent decades touring internationally, bringing his distinct sound to clubs and festivals across the globe. His productions and DJ sets are known for blending driving Detroit techno with melodic samples and instrumentation often inspired by his Albanian heritage, creating a sound that is both unmistakably Detroit and uniquely his own. Alongside his production work, Juncaj founded the @motechrecords label in 2002 - a platform that has developed its own identity within the global techno landscape, showcasing both his own music and a wide range of forward-thinking artists. His work has also reached a wider audience through high-profile remixes for artists such as @stgermainofficial and @depechemode - further cementing his place within the wider electronic music world. With Glasgow’s long-standing connection to the Detroit sound, it feels only right to welcome DJ 3000 to La Cheetah, one of the city’s key spaces for underground music with a history of connecting to Detroit from the start. Opening the night will be 313 Connection residents and founders @undercurrent313 and @kairogen , setting the tone with a warm-up rooted in Detroit influence while stretching across deeper techno, house and beyond. Not one to miss. First release tickets from £10. Linked in bio.

Glasgow Recap. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿⚙️ It’s always a highlight to start a Glasgow trip by seeing the family at @rubadubgla . They’ve supported @motechrecords and Detroit music since day one. Then we took that energy straight to the @lacheetahclub basement with the @313connection crew. The vibe was locked in from the first record until the lights came up. Massive thanks to everyone who came out. See you on the next one. #DJ3000 #detroittechno #Rubadub #LaCheetahClub #vinylrecords

@313connection are pleased to announce that @dj3000official will be our special guest at La Cheetah, Glasgow this Saturday 25 April. We’ve been looking forward to hosting him for a long time and are excited to finally make it happen.

Introduced to the world of @submerge313 and the Underground Resistance collective through friends in Detroit, he quickly became part of that extended family. UR co-founder ‘Mad’ Mike Banks famously gave Juncaj his DJ name after the collective moved their headquarters to 3000 W.

Hello hello, ahead of inviting @dj3000official on Saturday to @lacheetahclub with @313connection - I’m sharing some clips from a previous 313 warm up set! As I’ll be starting off the night I thought it’d be good to reflect back on this one from this time last year. It’s probably one of my favourite starts to the night I’ve done, it focuses mainly on Detroit-based artists although not limited to. The aim of the night is to show our influences and those who have been influenced by the sound but still having a wider reach than that, not just all the one area of music but a spectrum of those passionate about the sounds of Detroit / Glasgow or want to hear more. Still alway learning, still a lot to explore. If you wanna get down and deep I’m on first this Saturday before @undercurrent313 after @phazon.gla kicks off the club in early evening. Tickets in my bio with group discounts available. This will be the biggest event we’ve put on so far so would v much love to see you there 🤘💖 Link to this set will also be at the link above 🔗 Much love, Kirsten xo Tracklist John Briggs | Zoetic – Sketches Of Spring Redcell – In Version Andrés – Cybermate XOR Gate – Ellipse Patrice Scott – A Song For Mia Andrés – Funky 2Step Alton Miller – After The Rain @rickwade1986 – Too Deep BMG & Sal P – Eskink Robert Hood – Behind This Door Barce – Jazzfruit Anthony Shake Shakir – At The Bonnie Brook (Osborne Remix) Juan Atkins – I Love You Lonerist – AGI Overtone Series – C n’ C @djaltonmiller – Chari (Original Mix) @djmarcuspaulson - Pure John Briggs | Zoetic - Lone Journey (feat.
