Get schooled by one of Detroit's house music pioneers, Mike Grant.

Mike Grant is one of the leading figures in Detroit's growing house scene. When Mike's fresh Moods & Grooves label began raising more than a few eyebrows with its catalog of releases by many of Detroit's best house producers, few knew that he has been a key figure in the Motor City's early to mid-'80s electronic dance scene as a talented DJ. Mike is the only Detroit DJ who plays complete deep house/house and techno sets as well as a mixture.

During this mid-'80s era, Grant's reputation as one of the city's top DJs led to eventual partnerships with many of that eras other top DJs, most notably Eddie Fowlkes, Derrick May, and Juan Atkins.

In the late '90s, Mike started his own label, Moods & Grooves and began releasing the work of his peers as well as his own. By mid-2000, the label had received substantial acclaim - including a high-profile appearance by Grant at the landmark Detroit Electronic Music Festival. In 2001, Mike launched the techno based label End to End and urban sounding Afrosyntrix.
