MCEC - Motor City Electro Company

Hit Makers

DJ Nasty

One of the most respected Detroit producers around the world. He has recorded with some of Detroit's heaviest hitters. Even so, DJ Nasty proves without a doubt that he can hold his own. His discography stems all the way back to 1996, with releases on Twilight 76, Databass, and even his own imprint: Motor City Electro Company. With 35 records released to date, DJ Nasty has sold over 50,000+ records worldwide.
As one of the original Ghettotech producers, Nasty kept his formula simple from day one: Bass, Beats and Booty. His styles (often imitated, never duplicated) helped pave the way for this exciting brand of music called ghettotech.

Songs like "Finger Licking" and "Blow Bubbles" almost make you wonder what's REALLY happening in his studio -- those ladies sure sound happy!

If you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen... Cuz Nasty serves his beats hot and proper. Strictly for the ghetto playas, pimps and hoes -- and those who love to see them shake it!

Aaron Carl

Detroit native Aaron-Carl takes on the world, with his outlandish brand of electronic music.  Refusing to be forced into any one genre; he writes and produces many different styles, including House, Electro and R&B... 
 
AC's music career began in 1996, when he signed with Soul City -- a House label owned by "Mad" Mike Banks (Submerge/UR).  Releasing his first two singles ("Wash It" and "Crucified") at the same time, Aaron achieved immediate international success.  Quickly making a name for himself in the Underground scene, AC went on to form his own imprint -- Wallshaker. 
 
Club anthems like "Dance Naked" and "My House" prove that Aaron-Carl is a true force to be reckoned with -- both songs made the Billboard Top 40 Dance/Club charts.  House may be his main forte, but AC also finds success in the Electro/Ghettotech scene. "Down" (where he boldly confesses "I wanna go down on you, if it's the last thing that I do...") is hailed as one of the biggest records in its genre.  Other honorable mentions include:
 
Two Detroit Music Award nominations (Best Electronic Artist, Best Electronic Song)
Three Performers Awards of Detroit nominations (Best Live Vocal - Male, Entertainer of the Year - Male by Male, Best Sound Operator/DJ)
Outmusic Award nomination (Outsong of the Year)  ("Bring it On")
Featured in URB Magazine's Next 100 (2002)
 
AC has remixed artists such as Greg Cash, UR and the legendary Manu DiBango.  He has also been remixed by Peter Rauhofer (Club 69), Doc Martin and Timo Maas; just to name a few...  2004 marks the 8th year of success in his music career, yet Aaron-Carl assures us:  This is only the beginning...
