KMS x THNH
In an unprecedented collaboration that merges the pioneering legacy of Detroit's electronic music scene with contemporary flair, Kevin Saunderson's iconic KMS Records teams up with his nephew, Kweku Saunderson, to introduce the KMS x THNH line. This exclusive collection, dubbed "The Hood Needs House," embodies the spirit and soul of Detroit, channeling the raw, energetic essence of the city’s streets into every stitch of these limited-edition shirts. Available exclusively at the merchandise tent of the Movement Electronic Music Festival, these pieces are more than just apparel; they are a statement of unity, culture, and the transformative power of music.
The KMS x THNH line is a testament to the enduring legacy and innovative spirit that Kevin Saunderson has cultivated through KMS Records. With a nod to the past and an eye on the future, this collection bridges the generational gap, bringing together Kevin's profound influence in the electronic music scene with the Old School Edition while his Son, Dantiez, took the streetwear dial to the next level with a special New School Edition of the same shirt. Each shirt in the collection is crafted with precision, featuring designs that pay homage to the rich history of house music while infusing contemporary streetwear aesthetics. It’s a perfect blend of old-school authenticity and new-age style, creating a unique and timeless look.
The release of the KMS x THNH line is timed to coincide with the launch of "The Hood Needs House - 2024 Movement Sampler," a carefully curated selection of tracks that capture the essence of the genre’s evolution. Spanning classic house grooves to cutting-edge techno beats, this sampler showcases the incredible talent and creativity of emerging artists who are pushing the boundaries of electronic music. It’s a sonic journey that reflects the same spirit of innovation and community that the KMS x THNH collection represents.
In this fusion of music and fashion, Kevin and Kweku Saunderson have created something truly special. The KMS x THNH line is not just a celebration of Detroit’s rich musical heritage but also a bold step forward in shaping the future of electronic music culture. It’s an invitation to join a vibrant community of music lovers and fashion enthusiasts who believe in the power of unity, creativity, and self-expression.
