is Juan Atkins still an active DJ?


Hi to all TAs in Detroit from Ontario. I've been a die-hard fan of detroit techno for many years, and I feel bad that I never got to see the legendary Juan Atkins live. Does he still spin in clubs, and if yes, does anybody know what his work schedule is like?

Thanks!

Hehe, yes, I have those classics and I am aware of the release of that nice album from a great music label. Thanks for bringing it up


But does he still spin live in clubs?

He may be an active DJ, but he never showed up to his so-called residency at Necto last winter. He missed his first two weeks and then the Necto cancelled Sunday's. I was really hoping that he would be cool there because they previously cancelled their Thursday Nights. Anyways, I'm sure he is djing somewhere, but I wouldn't book him.
