Detroit's DJ 3000 produces techno distinguished by its frequent usage of samples, melodies, and instrumentation drawing from the artist's Albanian heritage. A longtime Underground Resistance associate, he releases most of his music through his own Motech label. First appearing with a series of mix CDs and 12" EPs during the early 2000s, he issued his debut album, Migration, in 2006. He has since collaborated with Ursula Rucker and remixed Depeche Mode, Ellen Allien, St. Germain, and others. Further releases include albums like 2014's Besa, 2020's two-part Spectrum compilation, and dozens of EPs, such as 2022's Mashallah.
