Dennis White, also known as Latroit and Static Revenger, is an American electronic dance music producer, [1] songwriter [2] and DJ. [3] In 2018, he won the Grammy Award for Best Remixed Recording, Non-Classical for his remix of "You Move", originally by Depeche Mode. [4]
As Static Revenger, he is best known for the ARIA double platinum certified [5] release "I Like That" and "Happy People", which was charted by Fatboy Slim on Beatport as one of the top 10 Dance Music recordings of the decade. [6] As an artist, writer, and producer, he has credits on over 3.5 million records sold worldwide, and seven number-one Billboard club chart remixes for artists such as Swedish House Mafia [7] and Hans Zimmer. [8]
Before using the pseudonym 'Static Revenger', Dennis White got his start in dance music when introduced to Kevin Saunderson from the Detroit techno group Inner City, and was hired as the music director for the Inner City 'Big Fun' world tour from 1989 to 1990 [9] [10] and signing as one of the first artists on KMS Records, Saunderson's record label imprint.
At the conclusion of the Big Fun tour, he went on to found the alternative pop band Charm Farm in Detroit, Michigan. Charm Farm released the album, Pervert, on Mercury Records, scoring minor success with the single "Superstar" (U.S. pop chart #89 in 1996), and performing shows with Detroit artists ranging from Kid Rock and Insane Clown Posse, to Juan Atkins and Richie Hawtin.
In addition to being an artist and producer, White composes for TV and film. He co-wrote "The Zing" with Adam Sandler, which featured the vocals of Sandler, Selena Gomez, CeeLo Green, and Andy Samberg, and was the closing theme in the Sony Pictures film Hotel Transylvania , which opened at number one at the US box office. [11]
In 2013, Dim Mak Records, which is owned by Steve Aoki, released "Back Off, Bitch!" [12] by Static Revenger featuring Kay, followed by "Colors at Night" in early 2014. [13]
As Latroit, White has released recordings with Idris Elba, Inner City, Sam Sparro, and Le Youth. He has also remixed recordings for Depeche Mode, Deadmau5, and Nile Rogers. The Latroit remix of "You Move" by Depeche Mode won the 2018 Grammy Award [14] in the 'Best Remixed Recording (Non-Classical)' category. [15]
Latroit's single, "Nice" was featured in the critically acclaimed Apple Phone XR global campaign. [16]
In 2024, Latroit collaborated with South Africa's Soweto Gospel Choir and Simon Lewicki, also known as Groove Terminator, on the album "History of House", which re-imagines house music classics through a Zulu, gospel music lens. The album features reimaginations of popular dance and pop classics such as "Ride Like The Wind" by Christopher Cross, Inner City's "Good Life", and "Everybody's Free (To Feel Good)" by Rozalla. In an interview with NPR's Ari Shapiro, White stated, "Our mission, the idea for the project was to bring dance music, which is undeniable - Western dance music, which is undeniably African American music, back to an African project and then re-export it to the world through an African perspective. That was the original sort of mission statement of the project." [17] "History of House" was ranked #10 in KCRW's 30 Best Albums of 2024. [18]
