00:00When I walk into the club, there's a solitude to it that I like.
00:06It's the legendary Carl Craig.
00:08Carl Craig is hearing the music bounce from the wall back to me.
00:16Are you proud to be from Detroit?
00:18Almost seemed like I could feel the ground shake.
00:22Hell yeah! I'm proud to be from Detroit!
00:25Okay, Carl Craig, come here, man.
00:30When you enter his world, this is really something very exceptional.
00:35Hello, hello.
00:39I used to work doing Xerox copies.
00:41We had three of them, I think.
00:44One would do his rhythm, the other one's going, but they're not going in sync with each other.
00:51But to him, it was music.
00:57So when I go home, and I'm not even thinking of that, I heard these rhythms all day long.
01:04I'm just making rhythms and stuff.
01:07It wasn't house or techno.
01:09There were jazz elements.
01:11It's a sound that's utterly unique.

01:14So otherworldly.
01:18I didn't like the concept that I had to follow the rules.
01:22With jazz, it gave me the idea that made my electronic music feel more human.
01:28And that's when he knew it's going to be huge.
01:31If I finish the night, it's five o'clock in the morning, when I get to the hotel, my ears
01:41are ringing and it's all this angst.
01:45And sometimes you have to find ways of recovering so that I can go right back out there and do
01:49it again the next day.
01:53He's taken black music from Detroit and he's elevated it to as high in the society as is possible.
01:5930-something years later, he's still pushing boundaries.
02:04The possibilities are endless to what you can dream up to fit into this lost metropolis.
02:18See this reaction that I'm having?
02:19Oh my god!
02:21This joy, this longing, this beauty.
02:25And it was just magic.
02:29The only reason that I want to celebrate.
02:32The beauty of I am with
02:33the dorsal famous than I am withоеena
02:35If you want to be the afterlife.
02:37Here I am with my daughter, I come to
