Movement Festival roster is shaping up
Adam Graham / Detroit News Pop Music Writer
Hip-hop pioneer Afrika Bambaataa, celebrated house DJ Carl Cox and Detroit techno mainstays Derrick May, Kevin Saunderson and Carl Craig lead the lineup for this year's Movement Festival, May 23-25 at Detroit's Hart Plaza. They are among 35 acts that organizers for the 10th annual festival are announcing today.
Meanwhile, incendiary British electronic act the Prodigy will headline the official Movement kickoff party on May 22 at Fillmore Detroit. It's the first time a major act has played the festival's pre-party, which is traditionally a somewhat laid-back soiree.
"This is a very significant, visible event," Paxahau's Jason Huvaere said Tuesday of the pre-party. "It's much bigger than everything we've done before."
Today's lineup announcement represents about half of the total lineup for this year's fest, Huvaere says. Also on the docket: popular mashup DJ Z-Trip, 2008 Movement fave Benny Benassi and San Francisco-based experimental electronic act Bassnectar. This year's Movement will feature at least four stages of music, with the possibility of a fifth being added at a later date.
Weekend passes for the festival, $35, go on sale today at www.paxahau.com. After Saturday, passes go up to $40 -- on par with last year's advance prices. Tickets for the Prodigy-led pre-party, $20, go on sale Friday at www.livenation.com and www.wantickets.com.
Cox is performing at the fest for the first time since 2001, and will headline the VitaminWater-sponsored main stage on May 23. Loco Dice vs. Luciano will close the main stage on May 24, and former festival director May -- making his first Movement appearance since 2006 -- will close the fest May 25.
