Moodymann: A Detroit Enigma | Resident Advisor

 

We attempt to demystify one of electronic music’s most enigmatic characters. The Detroit artist Moodymann has redefined house music over the last 20 years, all while remaining an unknowable cult hero. He rarely speaks to the press, and has been interviewed only a handful of times. He’s an artist whose intentions and backstory are often difficult to explain. Yet his work is littered with deeply personal references. In this video essay, the second in a new series, we attempt to unravel the mystery Moodymann.
