DEREK PLASLAIKO
(The Bunker, Perc Trax | Berlin)
There's nothing wrong with modesty. But some DJs are too modest, and Derek Plaslaiko is one of them. As someone that has thrived in some of the most competitive scenes for electronic music in the world, he has plenty to brag about.
Plaslaiko cut his teeth in Detroit at the city's famed Record Time store, selling records to some of the city's famed DJs and producers. He took these retail experiences—Watts and Syntax were employers as well, once upon a time—and applied them to his fledgling DJ career, earning a residency at the Tuesday night weekly Family. Filling the city's Motor club on an unlikely party night is no mean feat, but Plaslaiko's keen selections and infectious energy won over the house heads in the audience. So much so that Plaslaiko was asked by Carl Craig to play at the inaugural edition of the Detroit Electronic Music Festival, as well as representing Spectral Sound around the world without ever having released a track on the label.
Eventually, Plaslaiko moved on to New York City where he quickly found himself another residency at The Bunker. As part of one of the most respected Friday night events in the city, Plaslaiko has played alongside Daniel Bell, Marcel Dettmann, Baby Ford, Alex Smoke and countless others, and even was named "Best Techno Party DJ" by The Village Voice in 2006. It was in New York as well that Plaslaiko first began to produce music, leading to his debut release in 2010 on Perc Trax, a 12-inch that was played by DJs like Peter Van Hoesen, Pfirter and Paul Woolford upon its release. Now based in Berlin, more tracks are in the works and the DJ gigs keep piling up. As we said, there's plenty to brag about. Not that he'd do it himself that is.

MICHAEL PERRY
(PLAY | SF)
Born and raised in Detroit, Michigan, Michael was given a front row seat to the world of electronic music at a young age. Having worked in several of the area record stores, including the now defunct yet highly influential Record Time, Michael was lucky enough to have access to the newest and freshest records coming out from the talented artists that Detroit is known for as well as from artists around the world. Cutting his teeth in the Detroit underground, Michael played around Detroit until 2003 when the desire for new surroundings took him west.
Upon arriving in San Francisco, Michael quickly got involved in the San Francisco underground with Nice, a monthly party that along with Jason Kendig, Nikita and Christian Bloch brought a minimal techno style to the city. After that ended, Michael then played random one off events until he formed Fedora with fellow Midwestern transplant Matt Wilder. Together the two have thrown some of the most notorious parties at the legendary underground space, the com# while delivering their distinctive style of jazzy, jacking deep house.
In 2009, Michael then joined White Label, a weekly happy hour that together with Michael Kelly brought helped kick off the weekend for San Francisco featuring the newest house and techno. Now Michael finds himself a resident of Listed Productions newest monthly project, Play, held the first Saturday of the month at the notorious End Up. Currently immersed in the studio, look for new things to come soon.
