QRIP – (high) Q(UALITY) (radio) RIP

Pioneering Detroit techno DJ Derrick May presents a special edition of the 6 Mix, featuring three new mixes which showcase his musical make up, and talks about his work as a producer and DJ.
May – best known for his 1987 dance anthem Strings of Life under the name Rhythm Is Rhythm – has been an iconic name on the techno scene for over twenty years, DJing worldwide to a devoted fan base and pioneering the scene’s distinct, hard sound. Hailing from Detroit, Michigan, May’s work – alongside that of Juan Atkins and Inner City’s Kevin Saunderson – has provided a catalyst for a number of producers worldwide.

Over two hours, May plays tunes which have inspired him from the likes of Marvin Gaye, D’Angelo and Jean Michelle Jarre, alongside dance tunes from Lil Louis and Hamilton Bohannon. Derrick also plays a brand new 60 minute mix of his signature hi-tech soul sound, which he describes as “George Clinton meeting Kraftwerk in an elevator.”.
