2007 Official Announcement :: DEMF



Detroit's Electronic Music Festival 2007 to showcase rare performances by legendary Detroit artists Moodymann, Model 500, and Jeff Mills

Movement 07, Detroit's Electronic Music Festival will feature performances by legendary Detroit artists Moodymann live featuring Pitch Black City; Model 500 featuring the godfather of Detroit Techno Juan Atkins; and Jeff Mills, the longtime hard hitting "wizard" of Detroit Techno. The festival will take place Memorial Day weekend May 26-28 at its home in Downtown Detroit's Hart Plaza.

Moodymann (Kenny Dixon Jr.) is a Detroit techno/house artist known for his innovative use of reworked riffs, samples and grooves taken from the City's historically influential jazz, soul, funk and disco scene. Rarely appearing live, his headlining performance at the festival is the first show in support of his upcoming studio album and will include a full stage show with a band.

Juan Atkins, who is widely regarded as the godfather of Techno, began in the 1980s recording what stands as perhaps the most influential body of work within the genre. Model 500 will headline the main stage on Sunday at the festival, highlighting the continuing influence of his music on a global scale.

Jeff Mills is a planetary superstar of techno, an unwearied hero of mega-events and an ace of the three-deck mix; his musical touch has been a force on this city's dance scene for over 20 years. Jeff returns to Detroit to headline the festival with a main stage closing performance on Monday night.

Other 2007 special performances include German producers Booka Shade, who have earned a reputation as one of the world's most exciting live electronic music acts. Their performance at the 2007 festival will mark Booka Shade's first appearance in Detroit. Also performing live will be Octave One, featuring Detroit natives, brothers Lenny and Lawrence Burden, who have released groundbreaking underground dance anthems on their Detroit-based record label, 430 West Records.

In addition to Moodymann featuring Pitch Black City, Model 500, Jeff Mills, Booka Shade, and Octave One, the 2007 festival will feature the following artists (more artists to be announced):

Could give a fuck about Mills. Saw him close the main stage a few years ago (2003 I think?). He spun one of the worst sets I've ever heard live - it was the first show I've ever walked out on based on the quality of music. Half way through he started sampling the Wizard of Oz which was a complete disaster. It seemed as if all he was doing was slamming the crossfader every 2 minutes, must have heard a good 20 tracks in the first hour. Myself and a group of 15 or so all jetted for the after parties. I'll give him another chance, but it was truly a piss poor performance. However, I've never seen him other than that so I have nothing to compare his performance to. I figured that closing the main stage at DEMF would bring out the best in him, but I left thoroughly disappointed.

Was anyone else there?

These are solid, i agree.

I hope others are added, particularly Audion (Matthew Dear) since I just missed him here in Chicago. But, also Magda or if James Holdon could make a return visit since I missed last year's performance. Richie and not Mills should be closing the show, but thats just my personal preference. Peace:.

I'd say every single artist on that list is pretty damn solid.
