Movement returns to Detroit’s legendary Hart Plaza on Memorial Day Weekend, May 27-29, 2017.

Following their performance, Testpilot released “Sunspot (White Space Conflict)” on Hawtin’s Plus 8 Records. This also marks the second time the mau5trap label boss has performed at Movement (his first performance was in 2008 as deadmau5).
