In the year 2000, Detroit threw a party, and the whole world showed up.

In our Series Finale, we take you to Hart Plaza for the birth of the Detroit Electronic Music Festival (DEMF/Movement). We explore how a free festival saved the scene and turned the city into a global pilgrimage site every Memorial Day.

We also dive into the high-speed world of Ghetto Tech with DJ Godfather and introduce the new generation of artists (Kyle Hall, Jay Daniel) who are proving that the Motor City is still the engine of future sound.
