For this week’s episode Carl Craig sits down with DeForrest Brown Jr. to dig into the African-American origins of electronic music and subsequent white-washing of the genre with Make Techno Black Again.
Each week of February, Carl will welcome some of electronic music’s most revered thought leaders to the table for a series of discussions. He will discuss Afrofuturism with Professor, DJ and composer King Britt, celebrate the thirty-year anniversary of Planet E alongside its multi-generational label mates DJ Minx and DJ Holographic, and of course dig deep with DeForrest Brown Jr.
The final conversation will be recorded at South Africa’s living museum, Constitution Hill, Johannesburg. This Africa Special will explore how the rhythms of Africa permeated into Black Music in the Americas, specifically Techno and House music, followed by a livestream from the historical venue.
