Press release:

When other children were playing combat with G.I. Joe action figures in the early 80s, Detroit native Marcellus Malik Pittman was playing his radio at maximum volume, listening to the sounds of the Wizzard and the Electrifying Mojo, in addition to the jazz outputs of Rosetta Hines.

Malik began his DJ pursuits for college parties, wedding receptions, old school parties in the early 90s. In 1993, Malik released his initial work of production with local Hip-Hop collective Home Grown.

Shortly thereafter, he released Essential Selections, Vol. 1 on the Sound Signature label, headed by Theo Parrish. In 1998, Malik forged a working relationship with Rick Wilhite, Theo Parrish and Kenny Moodymann Dixon, collectively known as the 3 Chairs.

As production artists and selectors, they have helped to define an integral part of the Detroit sound.Maliks sound has been around the Detroit and surrounding areas, as well as internationally, spanning Canada, the UK, Germany, Japan and Paris.

His dedication to production ushered the discontinuation of his latest residency with Northern Lights in Detroit. Malik is currently heading his own label, Unirhythm, which will release future projects.
