What with the dominance that genres like rap and analog techno have over associations with the city of Detroit, it's easy to forget that not everything there is dark and mechanical. Andres stands as living proof that downtempo, music made for relaxing and enjoying yourself, are also part of the scene.
Championed by the great Moodymann, Andres's sound takes on elements of hip-hop, funk, and R&B, but stays within the realm of downtempo – appropriate for an afternoon in the sun or, just as easily, an evening in a dark nightclub. Forward-looking Make It New is where he'll be spinning, so be ready for breakdancers.
