hahahaha, i like you now.
Craig's a really cool dude, real laid back and down to earth in person. Totally the opposite of his "DJ Assault" alter ego. When I first met him it threw me for a loop as I expected him to be a wild, ass n titties fueled party monster.
I love those Assault and Electro Funk records. They're just so raw and fun.

He was
Also of interest if you're into the whole Ghetto-Tech stuff:
Disco D, night at the booty bar
DJ Jizzmatron.
Dj Assault will not be remembered as the greatest lyricist of all time, but he is hilarious.
i'm not dissing or anything, i'm not v. familiar with dj assault. it just seems weird to me when folks are all 'yeah he's so lewd!' because like, well duh. so is most juke house or miami bass or bmore club whatever else
I think the Surgeon is rawer, tho
Ghetto house was born out of the house scene in south side chicago, the semi-official godfather of ghetto house and my personal favorite is Dj Deeon. Dj deeon released mixtapes featuring house tracks from the Dance Mania and Cajual labels.
Some influential tracks:
Mike Dunn - Magic Feet - Muzique
Eric Martin - Hit it From the Back - Dance Mania
DJ Funk - Pump It - Cosmic
DJ Deeon - Da Horz - Dance Mania
Debo (DJ Deeon) - Let Me Bang - Dance Mania
DJ Deeon - SWYMGY - Dance Mania
Lil?? Louis - Original Video Clash - Dance Mania
Jammin Gerald- Move It - Dance Mania
Cajmere - Coffee Pot - (Percolator) - Club House
Fast Eddie - Hip House '89' - DJ International
Other great artists: Paul Johnson, Dj chip, Robert Armani, Dj boogie, Dj milton, Dj sluggo.
But the track that made ghetto/booty house famous "Ass & Titties" was born in techno's birthplace of detroit in '96 by the production team of Craig Adams and Ade' Mainor, aka Mr. De.] released as Dj Assault.
Dj Assault is the only prolific ghetto house producer we have left that is release his records for cheap ($6.50!!!) which was definately Dance Mania's style.
My current personal favorite:

IMO the only difference between ghetto house and ghetto tech is that tech is faster and has a cleaner straight up techno sound where ghetto house tends to be grittier and have more rapping/vocals.
Certified old-school house classic. See also: Steve Poindexter's "Work That Muthafucka".
I used to like a lot of the shit that Relief and Cajual were putting out in the mid-90s.
that dance mania shit is fire
love that dj funk 'pump'n the trax' tape from '95, ends with do or die's 'no love'!
DJ Godfather has some serial bangers too.

Detroit Grand Pubahs
That was Sandwiches by Detroit Grand Pubah. I always liked that one. "Out here on the daaaaaance floor!" Damn, that reminds me of freshman year of college!
beat me.
Oh yes. Most apt thing the now defunct Muzik magazine wrote about anything. A kick drum from a council estate on the wrong side of hell.
Thanks for posting this, I've been bumping it a couple weeks now.
