Blake Baxter

Baxter first began DJing in the middle of the 1980s. His first release was issued by Chicago label DJ International, which was followed by several singles on KMS Records, run by Kevin Saunderson. He worked extensively with Underground Resistance in the late 1980s and early 1990s, and had several of his productions featured on the Techno: The New Dance Sound of Detroit compilation. Around 1990 he began recording for Incognito Records, who released his debut full-length, The Underground Lives.

After moving to Berlin, he released "Brothers Gonna Work it Out", a track later sampled by The Chemical Brothers. Additionally, he worked with Orlando Voorn as The Ghetto Brothers. After returning to Detroit, he set up the labels Mix Records and Phat Joint.
