KEVIN SAUNDERSON INFO - Words from www.selekta.com
Kevin Saunderson is a legend in his own right, known and respected around the World, as one of the three Artist/Producer/DJs from Detroit, who originated Techno/House music, which helped to reshape the future of Dance music as we know it.
He started as a DJ and developed new skills that led him into producing records, which he released on his own label, KMS Records. The demand for his Artist/DJ/Producer derived records was overwhelming overseas, as well as right here in the States, cities like Chicago and New York were open to Kevin's new brand of music. He introduced acts like 'Kreem', 'Reese', 'Inter-City' (later to become Inner City) and 'Reese & Santonio'. Kevin has many other aliases too such as; 'Tronik House', 'The Reese Project', 'EsRay', 'Kaos' and latterly, 'E-Dancer', which he uses to show his versatility in being able to create different facets of Dance music. Kevin also pioneered the art of the "remix," changing the face of how remixers revamp songs. His very first remix for The Wee Papa Girl Rappers "Heat It Up" went on to pick up 'DMC Remix of the Year' in 1989.
In 1993, INNER CTIY parted company with their label, Virgin Records and to close the Virgin chapter, the label released the "Testament" '93" remix album to celebrate their time together. Featuring remixes of their best-known songs from the likes of CJ Mackintosh, Leftfield and Future Sound Of London. It hit the stores at Easter '93 as the group toured the UK (with THE REESE PROJECT). Also in that year they were voted, by the readers of Mixmag Magazine, the "Best International Act of the Year" and a "homecoming" deal with their manager Neil Rushton's SIX6 label was finalized. Another UK Tour followed in August '93, including a headlining appearance on the Reading Festival's dance stage and the top slot at the European Dance Weekender in Paris the following month. It was also at this time that Kevin's work with his other group THE REESE PROJECT was greeted with equal glee by journalists and clubbers alike.
To date, INNER CITY have had 12 Top 40 hits in the UK, as well as having had two Top 20 albums, with combined sales of more than 6 million. Inner City have also achieved many awards for outstanding accomplishments, such as being voted the 'Best Dance Act in the World' by DMC in 1989 and 1992. Inner City have also received 4 Gold singles, 1 Gold Album and 1 Platinum Album.
Meanwhile, Kevin's alter ego E-DANCER produces techno music, pure and simple. Created for a savvy audience by an original master. E-DANCER's first full length LP entitled simply "Heavenly" has hooked audiences and critics alike. Even more mains-stream music publications were compelled to take notice. For example 'Spin' magazine cited "Heavenly" as 'one of the ten best albums you've never heard'. Odd praise? Perhaps.. But accurate nonetheless, for rarely has a record so "underground" in both profile and content, been so obviously rewarding for the savvy listener fortunate enough to listen to it. Indeed, "Heavenly" is a 'must have' in any Detroit Techno collection.
It is a safe bet to expect many more surprises from Kevin Saunderson in 2001. As well as the already released E-Dancer vs. Inner City single "Good Love", there will also be a new Inner City album, a new E-Dancer album and somewhere in between some live appearances.
Kevin has also turned his attention back to KMS Records, 14 years after starting the label. His aim is to develop new talent and most importantly, he will be doing what he does best, creating great music. With his new Inner City release already receiving critical acclaim, it reaffirms Kevin's standing as one of the innovators and a leader in the industry…
