I've been into for years which is why I kinda started JACKSTAR label because all of the good Chicago labels had died (Jasperstone / DanceMania / Underground Construction). I know there are some other new labels coming outta Chicago which are doing some stuff like GTI records & CWAL but I find they lack a little substance than previous labels. The only thing with Ghetto-tech over in Europe is that the market is VERY small and record sales can be smaller than if say you was releasing Techno but you can almost put money on that when you drop a Ghetto tech track in a techno set the crowd go mental. I tend to start most of my sets with releases on IHR / Jasperstone / UC / Jackstar then move into the techno stuff. The next release on Jackstar if by DJ Rush back doing his Ghetto thing....you know loads of dirty talking etc but I also have a release from Ghetto boy - DJ Nehpets which I have been saving for over a year bu it will be worth the wait. I went over to Chicago to see Bam Bam / Urban and played a gig with Nehpets and it was using his laptop with his new trax and 2 dex and his set would of blown away any other Ghetto dj i've seen......he was amazing. He made his 1st release on IHR at 13 years old !!!!
