Techno pioneer Carl Craig on his journey from Detroit warehouses to Royal Albert Hall

Going from the urban warehouses of Detroit to the Victorian splendour of the Royal Albert Hall may seem like a giant cultural leap, but it’s a short step for techno music pioneer Carl Craig.

Marrying electronic music with classical, next month he’s going to be performing his Versus album in collaboration with the Chineke Orchestra, which is made up of mainly black and minority ethnic musicians.
