Detroit Love Madrid

About

Section One y La Riviera presentan Detroit Love. Carl Craig y Moodymann protagonizan este homenaje por todo lo alto al sonido Detroit en la sala madrileña La Riviera se rinde el próximo 29 de marzo a un sonido imbatible que sigue vigente décadas después de su irrupción en la escena internacional. El sonido electrónico de Detroit ha dejado una huella imborrable y sido influencia de creadores desde mediados de los ochenta hasta hoy. Detroit Love celebrará esta pasión por sus ritmos con dos de los principales nombres surgidos de la cantera del estado de Michigan. Uno de los nombres clave de la escena techno de Detroit sin lugar a dudas es Carl Craig. Un nombre asociado al circuito que ha mantenido su influencia durante más de dos décadas en las que ha destacado con una producción constante además de la labor como director de su propio sello, Planet E Communications. Pionero en este sonido y artista incansable que ha conseguido traspasar los límites con otros estilos musicales a lo largo de su larga trayectoria. Craig ha explorado en el techno a través de otros géneros como el soul o el jazz y ha colaborado con artistas de diferentes escenas, manteniéndose fiel a su estilo. Craig llegará a La Riviera con su maleta cargada del auténtico y genuino sonido Detroit en un homenaje personal. Un set trepidante que será de los más esperados la noche del 29 de marzo. El sonido house en Detroit está asociado inevitablemente con un nombre concreto, Moodymann aka Kenny Dixon. Será el otro invitado que completa el cartel internacional de Detroit Love. Desde el lanzamiento de su primer álbum en 1997 (en Planet E, label de Carl Craig), Dixon ha sido uno de los artistas asociados con la parte mas house de la escena de Detroit. Director de KDJ Records, ha publicado doce álbumes de estudio a lo largo de su trayectoria. Será una oportunidad única disfrutar en directo de estos dos totems de la escena clubbing en La Riviera gracias a Detroit Love. Idriss D también pasará en esta noche especial por Madrid. Uno de los nombres referentes en la escena club en Italia, dj residente de clubs como Cocoricò Riccione o Amnesia Milano, es uno de los artistas italianos con mayor proyección en la escena internacional, es todo un lujo completar el line up de la noche con este nombre. Detroit Love debuta en La Riviera con esta puesta en escena que recuperará el sonido Detroit el próximo 29 de marzo en la sala madrileña. Es una producción de Section One junto con La Riviera que comienza una serie de eventos en la sala madrileña con este homenaje al sonido Detroit. Una producción que tomará el espacio de la capital, con un sonido totalmente renovado L Acoustics. Detroit Love’ is a new concept from Carl Craig, designed to bring together and support the sounds of Detroit at clubs & festivals the world over. Carl Craig Bio Carl Craig is described as a creative visionary, a groundbreaking electronic music icon, an inspirational artist, an esteemed Grammy-nominated composer, a world-class DJ and an ambassador for his native Detroit. Yet the common thread that runs through Craig’s broad musical canon and creative projects is a resounding fascination with futurism. Carl Craig has cultivated a unique path as an artist, entrepreneur and civic leader, guided by his tendency toward forward thinking. His remixes discography boasts some of the most desirable names in music – LCD Soundsystem, Hot Chip, Junior Boys (nominated for a Grammy Award), Gavin Russom & Delia Gonzalez, Theo Parrish, Tori Amos, Can, Goldfrapp, Friendly Fires, Caribou, Tiga, Unkle, Yello and more. As well as an outlet for his own productions, his Planet-E imprint has given a home to a wide range of Detroit-based artists including Francesco Mora Catlett, Naomi Daniel, Flexitone, Jason Hogans, Kenny Larkin, Monty Luke, Moodyman, Mike Agent X, Oliverwho Factory, Ezana Harris, Recloose, Reference, Kevin Saunderson, Big Tone, Tribe, Urban Tribe, and Chaz Vincent. Staying strong to his Detroit roots, where he still lives today, Craig helped launched the Detroit Electronic music Festival in 2000 and remains a strong force at the festival today. He has also created and launched his non-profit 501-C3 Carl Craig Foundation: “The concept is to find ways to re-educate kids about what’s interesting musically that you can’t get on the radio… To develop a new music scene that follows the legacy of Detroit music being diverse and interesting, to spot out the most talented young musicians coming out of high school and lend small financial grants to encourage music education at a higher level.” Moodymann Bio An outspoken voice in the normally non-confrontational world of electronic dance music, Moodymann (given name: Kenneth Dixon Jr.) is committed to keeping a distinctly black imprint on techno and house. While he may frustrate people with his refusal to be interviewed and insistence on reminding people of the genre's origins, the soulfulness of his output is unquestioned. Utilizing classic soul and jazz samples, low-slung bass lines and an approach to drum programming that is diametrically opposed to the tendency to push the tempo faster and faster, he has achieved classic status thanks to gems like "Sunday Morning", "Shades of Jae", and his remix of Innerzone Orchestra's "People Make the World Go Round". Following years of 12" only releases, he compiled his best work on "Silentintroduction", one of the most celebrated albums of the late 90s. Idriss D Bio Idriss D’s approach to music started when he was just fourteen: he got his first turntables and his friend Nadir was a huge influence artistically and helped the young talent to develop his taste and personal vision. After moving to Italy, he quickly established himself among the biggest names in the gamethanks to his mixing skills, his unique style and drive, and to his hypnotic dance vibes that led him to widespread acclaim in the country’s nightclub circuit and to play at some of the most renowned venues such as Echoes, Cocoricò and Red Zone. Beside actively working as a dj and enjoying ongoing success and recognition, Idriss manages some of the most respected record labels in Italy: the world-famous Memento, along with best friend and musical soul brother Fabrizio Maurizi, the experimental Aloe and Db Artists Musique.
