Direct to Earth (DTE) is a long-running techno project born in 2011 in the San Francisco & Oakland underground. What began as a gathering of likeminded heads sharing music has grown into a pillar of the North American techno scene. Inspired by the deep, trippy, and forward-thinking strains of techno, DTE has become a defining voice in this sound. A diverse collective of DJs, producers, dancers, organizers, engineers, artists, and lifelong heads united by a belief that the dance floor is more than an escape: it's a place for release, exploration, expression, and belonging. Together we cultivate community with intention and build lasting memories powered by sound and unforgettable experiences. Here’s to techno, here’s to you... -DTE
