A prolific electro-techno producer as well as a lightning-fast turntablist, DJ Godfather is one of the driving forces behind Detroit's storied ghettotech scene. Much like fellow genre pioneer DJ Assault, Godfather is a hometown hero whose music is embedded into the city's street culture, as well as an icon responsible for the sound's international popularity. Switching between electro, booty house, Miami bass, hip-hop, and other styles of bass-heavy music, he's known to blast through dozens of records during his DJ sets. He co-founded the Twilight 76 and Databass labels during the mid-'90s, and began issuing DJ-friendly records at a rapid pace, in addition to mix CDs such as the multi-volume Da Bomb series. He's remained highly productive in the studio, issuing several lengthy albums during the 2020s (including Electro Beats for Freaks and This Detroit Thing of Ours) as well as singles like 2025's "This Is Not a Test."
DJ Godfather has also released music as a member of Ectomorph.
