Viswar
Combining his love for hard, hypnotic techno and his technical approach to producing music, Bang Tech 12 artist Viswar is poised to make his name in the global techno scene.

The impact of seeing people dancing and enjoying the music in a live environment was the catalyst for pursuing DJing and music production. While he pounds out highly energetic DJ sets, his real love is making the music.

A self-taught producer who melds computers and hardware synths, Viswar’s goal is to release his music on a larger scale and continually evolve his skills. With his understanding of the energy that comes with hearing techno in a live space, his goal is live performance, putting in play the very elements that drew him to techno in the first place.

Come check out DETUNE at Flint Drop Fest this Saturday August 9th!

DETUNE is known as a crate digger, his sets often include rare tracks that he unearths
from record stores and flea markets around the world. This dedication to vinyl and crate
digging sets him apart, giving his music an authenticity and depth that resonates with
audiences. Constantly exploring the history of electronic music, relentlessly searching for
music that expands the mind and moves the soul.
Creating a new vibe every time he gets on deck. Playing preferably on a 3 turntable setup,
this allows for more improvisation and is ideal for long blends, scratching and the
manipulating of sound effects along with more trickery.
Over the past two decades, DETUNE kept working in silent, perfecting his craft and
exploring the roots of our music. A journey witch led him to Detroit, Vancouver, Tokyo,
Kyoto, Berlin and many more. In his own productions he combines analog sound with
digital recording technology, searching for that uncompromising, timeless sound that
reflects the soul of the music. His music is a reflection of his philosophy: that the digital
age is both a tool of liberation and a potential prison.
Therefor it is important to stay a student of music, DJ without master, not bound by any
rules, hypes or trends. Being able to choose his own path and direction in the current
commercialized musical landscape, putting the music first, always.
“To me this music thing is about a Determined Engagement To Uplift Neglected Elements
of this art form, hence the name” – DETUNE

Come check out Shane Dee at Flint Drop Fest on August 9th!

Shane Dee is not just another DJ in this easily left-behind EDM scene — he’s an electronic music activist, creating authentic underground events and pushing real electronic music in markets where the scene didn’t previously exist.

Founder of the Las Vegas Trance Movement and co-founder of the Trance Arson weekly, Shane has spent over two decades tirelessly building underground dance communities wherever he plants roots. From the clubs of Dallas and Las Vegas to the uncharted rave territory of Montana, he’s carved out space for true electronic music, defying trends and commercial pressures in favor of authenticity.

Shane’s story began in 2001, honing his craft on a pair of Technics 1200 SL MK2s and a crate of Detroit and German techno records he bought from a friend while stationed in Japan. That friend’s older brother ran in the same circles as the Belleville Three — Kevin Saunderson, Derrick May, Juan Atkins — connecting Shane’s early education in techno straight to the source.

Influenced by giants like Jeff Mills, Richie Hawtin, and Sven Väth, his sets channel that lineage while remaining uniquely his own, evolving with every venue, every dancefloor, every moment.

Shane's Armed with a degree in music production and experience as A&R for Factory 918 Recordongs, Shane delivers sets that explore the darker, more primal side of dance music — blurring the lines between past and future, body and mind.

Shane has played with big names at festivals and clubs alike, but his mentality is not about name dropping, it is about the music itself, plain and simple.

Deeply rooted in techno’s history yet infused with his hypnotic, psychedelic twist, Shane’s sound is a raw, immersive journey into the underground. Now setting his sights on Detroit, the birthplace of techno, he’s focused on deepening his connection to the genre’s roots while expanding his underground movement.
