Mike Grant re-emerged at the end of the 1990s as one of the leading figures in Detroit’s house scene. His musical career began early, influenced by Detroit’s fledgling music scene and his uncle, the general manager of local R&B and dance station WKWM. By 1980 he had joined the DJ collective Men of Music, and by 1983 he was scoring club residencies in Detroit alongside legends such as Ken Collier. In the summer of 1985 he became a member of Street Beat, Detroit’s first radio mix show, where the foundation for early Detroit techno was formed. In the late 1990s he returned to recording, releasing “Nature of the Beast” as Black Noise on Metroplex Records, and founded his own label, Moods & Grooves, releasing the work of his peers as well as his own music.
Labels: Moods & Grooves, Metroplex Records.
