DETROIT'S RICH MUSIC HISTORY

Detroit is the home of many electronic music pioneers, including the Belleville Three who are credited for the birth of Detroit techno; Juan Atkins, Kevin Saunderson and Derrick May.

Thanks to this trio of music legends, many of house, techno and dance music’s most recognised names emerged in the 90s thanks - artists like Carl Craig, and the Underground Resistance formed of Mike Banks, Jeff Mills, and Floorplan’s Robert Hood among many many others…

Movement Music Festival 2024 will take place from 25th May to 27th May 2024, celebrating the legacy of Detroit's rich musical history while facing its future.
