The Bunker on Red Bull Radio: DJ Minx 05/22/2017
from thebunkerny · host thebunkerny
The veteran DJ, broadcaster, label boss and champion of women in dance music brings her punchy house sound to our Detroit radio studio. DJ Minx’s roots in Detroit dance music run deep. She counts the city’s foundational Music Institute club as her inspiration for DJing, a skill she’d ply during her residency at Hamtramck’s famed Club Motor, as the host of WGPR’s Deep Space Radio, at the inaugural Detroit Electronic Music Festival in 2000 and later at gigs from Berlin to Tokyo. In 2001, she founded Women On Wax as an outlet for her own effervescent productions (including classics like “A Walk In the Park” from 2003, which was later rereleased by Richie Hawtin’s Minus imprint) and those by unsung talent from her hometown. As Minx enters perhaps the busiest week on her calendar each year – the one ramping up to Movement festival – she’s squeezed in an hour to spend in our Detroit radio studio with The Bunker’s Bryan Kasenic to discuss her long history in the city’s music scene and log some time behind the decks.
