Detroit’s underground is being completely redefined by JMT, who represents tradition and evolution in a single stroke. On his latest single, “Yes, I Can,” a collaboration with Daniel Hex, the genre-blending producer has released a world-reversal of GhettoTech that’s sultry, soulful, and fiercely future-forward.

Taken from his new album GHETTOTECHTROPOLIS, “Yes, I Can” is a chameleon combining the pulse of GhettoTech, the precision of Techno, and the velvet soul of classic R&B. Still, there’s an audacity to this cocktail nonetheless, one that manages to feel both nostalgic and next-gen at the same time.

The story of the song is about as rich as the song itself. Born out of a gloomy afternoon spent at Heaven Studios – founded by none other than Royce Da 5’9 the track started life as a slow burn groove, with Daniel Hex’s sultry, luxuriant delivery existing over an easy-moving 125 BPM. But in post-production, JMT pulled a reverse. He turned up the tempo, let the percussion bang that much harder, and invested the track with a restless energy that one would expect to find only in the dimly lit basement of some smoky party: 3 a.m., if we’re lucky.

What makes “Yes, I Can” so magnetic is its twin natures. It’s a dancefloor fire with a soft heart. Hex’s own vocals dance effortlessly over the beat, providing the track with a human pulse under the hood of the machine’s perfect drive. It’s a deliberate contrast, Detroit’s grit and soul conjoined. Ultimately, “Yes, I Can” is the driving force of the future. On it, they are a fearless, finely calibrated clash of vibes that designates JMT a visionary voice in the city’s next musical chapter.
