Chance McDermott native of Kalamazoo, halfway between Detroit and Chicago (the birthplaces of techno and house music) grow up listening to radio hot mix tapes from DJ's like the Wizard(aka Jeff Mills) to Farley Jack Master Funk, although resources were limited in Kalamazoo it was only a matter of time before he was on his way to synthesisers, drum machines, and sequencers. He started creating his own sound, a unique style of Detroit hard minimal funky techno with a Chicago deep soulful sound of house. He quickly began to garner attention in 1994 as Chancellor on Black Nation Records, which caught the attention of labels in Europe such as Missile, and Sativae Recordings. Chance continues to release music all over the planet that inspires others keeping the legacy alive.
