Kenny Dixon Jr also known as Moodymann is a techno/house musician based in Detroit, Michigan. He creates a thoroughly hybrid form of techno/house dance music via his innovative use of reworked riffs, samples, including old movie sound track samples, mainly culled from the old blaxploitation and b-movie genres and grooves taken from that city's historically influential jazz, soul, funk, and disco scene.

  • Kenny Dixon Jr also known as Moodymann is a techno/house musician based in Detroit, Michigan. He creates a thoroughly hybrid form of techno/house dance music via his innovative use of reworked riffs, samples, including old movie sound track samples, mainly culled from the old blaxploitation and b-movie genres and grooves taken from that city's historically influential jazz, soul, funk, and disco scene. He also shares very political views on the current state of techno, decrying the lack of black techno and the white domination of the genre. His dj sets sometimes feature himself playing hidden from the crowd, the dj booth covered in white sheets.
  • Kenny Dixon Jr. , également connu sous le nom de Moodymann et JAN ("Just Another Niggah"), est un producteur de house et de deep house originaire de Détroit, fondateur du label KDJ. Moodymann a toujours voulu marquer ses compositions de l’empreinte des musiques issues de la culture noire américaine et ainsi rappeler leur filiation directe avec la house et la techno. I Can't Kick This Feelin' When It Hits par exemple, inspiré par le titre I want your love de Chic, est un de ses morceaux les plus connus.
