Detroit is a city rich in music culture, from Blues, Jazz, Motown,
Punk, Hip-Hop, Pop and, of course, Techno. Recognized as one of the
greatest in the world for its musical output, it is also a city whose
artists have so much love and pride for their heritage. Amidst the
city’s problems over the years, the inspiration remains strong and many
of the artists from Detroit are innovators of electronic music.
Creating landscapes through sound, music from originators Jeff Mills,
Kevin Saunderson, Juan Atkins, Derrick May, Carl Craig, Moodymann,
Underground Resistance, Stacey Pullen, Kenny Larkin,
Robert Hood, Recloose, Octave One and many more have influenced people
the world over, and without them, the music of today would not be what
it is. They have also paved the way for newer artists like Seth Troxler,
Kyle Hall, Lee Curtiss, Shaun Reeves, Ryan Crosson and Jay Daniel; each
artist uniquely taking the melodic and unforgettable sounds of Detroit
in to the future.
‘Detroit Love’ is a new concept from Carl
Craig, designed to bring together and support the sounds of Detroit and
take a little of the techno brotherhood to clubs and festivals the world
over.
“Love is what I have for my city, Detroit. ‘Detroit
Love’ is my way of spreading this love, a love for music from the city,
my heritage and who I am as a producer and performer. My love for
Detroit is my inspiration, my inspiration is ‘Detroit Love’.” – Carl
Craig
‘Detroit Love’ was launched at ADE 2014, in the
underground recesses of Amsterdam’s North Sea Jazz club. Carl Craig
invited Detroit natives Recloose, Moodymann – who played a set
encompassing disco, soul, house and hip-hop, and Mad Mike Banks to play
keys over Carl Craig’s Moog infused 4-cd-deck closing set, which
included live editing, sampling, scratching and looping of soundscapes
ranging from ambient textures to masterful techno. A Detroit focused
line-up, showcasing only a few of the sublime talent that Detroit has to
offer, the launch was a special and unforgettable night for those who
attended.
For ‘Detroit Love’ events, Carl Craig will perform a
new technical set up with 4-cd deck mixing, looping, live editing and
sampling.
Special video mapping is being designed, depicting the surreal, urban Detroit landscape.
