The High Standard

At the core of Movement Detroit is the best music in the world, played by the best artists in the world. As the birthplace of the techno genre, there is a moral responsibility to bring nothing less than 100 per cent to Detroit. This year, deadmau5 will be bringing his techno alter-ego testpilot to the stage for the first time since he performed alongside Richie Hawtin in 2014. Carl Craig plans to showcase his Versus Synthesizer Ensemble, an orchestral techno adaption he's been developing for the last nine years.

Every performer knows they have to be on their A-game, there is no room for any lack of spirit or force and it’s completely evident. Think of the best set you’ve ever heard, multiply it by ten and span it across the duration of an entire weekend - that’s Movement.
