Lineup and details for Content Presents - Derrick May (Transmat, DETROIT) on Friday 29th July 2011
In April we brought you The Originator - Juan Atkins. Now for our July party we are excited to announce that we are bringing The Innovator - Mr Derrick May to come and rock the Content faithful...
For those that don't know, Derrick May is one of the Belleville Three and alongside Juan Atkins and Kevin Saunderson they are widely credited with the creation of techno and it's expansion from a crazy new sound invented by some kids in their bedrooms in Detroit to the global phenomenon it is today.
Debuting on his own Transmat label in 1987 as Rhythim Is Rhythim with Nude Photo Derrick instantly grabbed the world's attention with an alien sound-scape made with bubbling synthesizers and crunching drum machines. Later, he went on to create Strings of Life - quite possibly one of the biggest dance music records of all time.
From then on it's been a hectic schedule of releases, remixes and touring as Derrick has become one of the busiest and most in demand DJs in the techno world. If you have never seen him play before, you can expect to hear house tracks filled with raw funk and techno music dripping with soul, all effortlessly spliced together by one of the smoothest DJs on the planet.
As ever with Content nights, tickets are limited to 200 spaces and due to the popularity of our events we advise you book your place in advance...
