Late Detroit Musician Amp Fiddler Remembered at 2024 Movement Music Festival


Late electronic and funk luminary Amp Fiddler was honored during the 2024 Movement Music Festival in Detroit.

Saturday’s tributes particularly took place on Movement’s Pyramid Stage, where hometown hero Carl Craig and his Planet E Communications curated a daylong lineup with Britain’s Defected Records. Amidst sets by Craig, Floorplan, Waajeed, DJ Holographic and others, Dames Brown, a Detroit vocal House music trio, offered perhaps the most moving salute — fittingly, since the group’s upcoming album, As I Am, was the last work Fiddler produced. The festival runs through Monday in Detroit’s Hart Plaza, with performances by Fatboy Slim, Richie Hawtin, James Blake and Goldie, who is celebrating the 30th anniversary of his Metalheadz label.
