If someone had to thread through the Detroit underground dance party scene, from its renegade beginnings in dusty warehouses and decomposed factories to coffeehouse chill to superclub swank (Packard Plant to Zoot's to Motor, all in the span of a few years in the 1990s), the guy doing the weaving would be Adriel Thornton.
No relic of a bygone era, the ageless promoter (perpetually 30 years old and looking it, if not younger) has never stopped pushing the beauty of the beat-driven moment in a city where techno was born out of passion and was built to last out of desire. Adriel Thornton is better known now as Adriel Fantastique, a perfect new monicker for new millennium dance culture, which has morphed into an anything goes, multiple-genre, cross-generational, racially-blended, polysexual lifestyle.
Walter Wasacz of the Metro Times interviews Adriel about his life and times within the Detroit party scene. Read the entire interview here. Also, visit Adriel's Fresh Corp. website for information regarding up coming events and news.
