May 23, 2008

Beatportal has a great interview with Dubfire. Here’s a quick excerpt >

“Detroit didn’t seem to really care what was going on anywhere else in the world or what other people were doing,” adds Dubfire, referencing the DIY mentality that’s always been prevalent in Detroit — not only with electronic music.

Club Planet - Festival Preview

May 23, 2008

Club Planet has posted a preview of Movement,.. as well as an interview with our very own Jason Huvaere. Here’s an excerpt>

CP: What are you looking forward to this year?

Jason Huvaere: I would say from in advance Speedy J live is playing for the first time with his video guy, which is going to be a really advanced show. Carl Craig is playing live, I’m really excited to see what he’s been working on over the past couple of years. From a nostalgic point of view we’ve got Nucleus and Egyptian Lover, which I think is really special because these guys were really excited to play Detroit. I think that that’s definitely going to bring an old but new element to the event itself. There’s a lot of different live stuff that’s going on for the first time. We’ve added some crossover artists to the bill and we’ve received a lot of positive feedback so I’m really interested to see what this audience’s perspective and perception is of the festival itself once they get here. We’ve got a lot of Benny Benassi, Moby and Girl Talk followers and those types of fans are going to be coming to the festival for the first time. It will be a great opportunity for Detroit and the event to showcase all the other talent it has to offer and maybe convert some techno fans.

Tycho interview with Real Detroit. Excerpt >

What performances are you looking forward to at DEMF this year?


Amon Tobin for one, it will also be interesting to see what Pete Rock’s set is like.


Tell me about contributing to the Ghostly Swim project.


It was pretty simple, they asked for a track and I gave them a live recording of a new song, “Cascade” It wasn’t created specifically for the compilation but this version of it is specific to the Ghostly Swim compilation.
