Originally active in the mid-’90s, DJ SCSI’s only official release appeared in 1997 on the cult D-Bass label — but hidden in his personal archive was a treasure trove of unreleased material that perfectly captures the raw, kinetic energy of Detroit’s electro and ghetto house underground. These four unearthed cuts showcase the sound in its most potent form: stripped-down machine funk, body-jacking drum programming, sizzling 808 basslines, and a no-frills dance floor focus that defined the city’s late-night warehouse culture.

Fierce, unpolished, and irresistibly physical, The Ghetto Tech Seven EP is a vital time capsule from a pivotal era, bridging the city’s electro roots with the high-octane pulse of ghetto tech — and a must for anyone serious about Detroit’s underground legacy.
