For just under a decade Demarkus Lewis has released over 100 singles and remixes . He has kept true to his roots in the underground sound whether it be deep soulful house or the heaviest of techno/tech-house outings.

Alongside housing some of his own productions, Grin has featured artists such as Chicago's Gene Farris, Timmy Vegas of Soul Central and DBR aka Rhythm Slaves.
