​Claude VonStroke discusses the power of Detroit in new mini-documentary

The Dirtybird boss' mix album 'Live In Detroit' is out now

Having just dropped a mix album of his set at Movement Electronic Music Festival 2018, Dirtybird bossman Claude VonStroke has shared a new mini-doc where he takes viewers on an intimate tour of his hometown - Detroit, Michigan.

VonStroke's relationship with Detroit goes back to his childhood, having grown up there from the age of 11 to 26 when he left for San Francisco. According to a press release, getting the chance to close out Movement was a surreal moment. “I’ve played Movement more than ten times, and every time it’s one of the most nerve­racking shows of the year,” says VonStroke. “I always want to bring the hottest possible set for Detroit, it’s where it all started, and my parents always come to watch."

'Claude VonStroke Live In Detroit' features brand new tracks and edits from Catz n Dogz, Claude VonStroke, DJ Deeon, Will Clarke and more. Check it out here.
