GETTOBLASTER
More than just DJ’s, this set of tastemakers are leading a movement, raised by Chicago and Detroit’s underground scenes and determined to keep it alive. Gettoblaster has created their own sound by taking what they’ve been influenced by for years and twisting it with a modern-day edge and pushing the genre of warehouse tracks to the future.
These powerhouses stay well-rinsed and consistently charting with their distinct blend of addictive hooks, crisp percussion, and room-shaking basslines. Gettoblaster’s music has been in regular rotation for Claude VonStroke, Claptone, Diplo, Shiba San, Dom Dolla, Danny Howard, Patrick Topping and many more. Even Mixmag champions their “tough, warehouse sound” with a full-page article introducing them to the world in the UK print edition of the Magazine.
2019 was a great year. They started off with an instant classic on Claude Vonstroke’s Dirtybird Records, “Gat Dat” featuring Chicago legend DJ Funk. Followed a month later by the massive single “Dat Booty” on French producer Tchami’s Confession label, receiving top 5 status in Beatport sales chart & also receiving an award breaking top 50 biggest bass house tracks of the year. They kept it going with the Gettoblaster & Friends EP on Shiba San’s Basement Leak Label. The breakthrough single was
Gettoblaster & Chris Larsen’s (CA) collaboration “Bounce Yo Body”. With it gaining popularity throughout the year, Defected Records took notice and licensed it for the “Defected Most Rated 2020” compilation.
In 2020, Gettoblaster’s first release was a collaboration with Chicago house legend DJ Deeon “The 302” on Patrick Topping’s new label Trick (also includes Remixes from Patrick Topping, Paul Johnson & DJ Haus).

Fuzzy Cufflinxx. They were also given the honors to do the DJ mix that came with the Compilation. Shortly after the Dirtybird release, the world was shut down by Covid-19.
