We're taking over the Underground Stage at Detroit's Movement for the second year in a row this May. There we'll have three days of techno from Helena Hauff, DJ Stingray, Charlotte De Witte, Marco Shuttle, Ø [Phase], Aurora Halal and many more.

To celebrate, we've dived into the exclusive Movement archives.

Mike Servito is synonymous with both Detroit and acid. In this hour of tweaked jackers recorded in 2015, he shows how funky the combination can be, fusing snaking acid trails with sub-rattling basslines and bitch slap drums.

Moving through house, disco and soul, this 2014 set from hometown hero Andrés oozes good vibes. It captures the smooth, groove-led sound of Detroit house, a style that’s often overshadowed by the city’s techno legacy.

A message from Erika: 

"2011 was the year that No Way Back got shut down by the police at the Bo House, just after midnight, as it was beginning. The next morning I opened the Made in Detroit stage at Movement, feeling very emotional, we were all super upset about how everything had gone down just a few hours prior. Derek Plaslaiko was there from before the first record, and everyone else trickled in – in just as crazy a head space as I was. As I saw each friend appear in the audience, I played a record just for them, so the set became a string of dedications to the people of the No Way Back that never was."
