The Movement Festival officially opens this Saturday in Detroit's Hart Plaza. I'm still all broken up about Ellen Allien not being able to play, but our dear friends at Ghostly International are bringing some rare and delightful German elektronik acid our way in the form of Alter Ego (Klang/Playhouse, Frankfurt). Not only that, but live sets from Geoff White and Matthew Dear, plus a whole host of talent from the ever-expanding Ghostly stable at the very elegant Crystal Ballroom in the nation's largest Masonic Temple.

Friday night, 10pm-4am, 500 Temple Ave., Detroit, $15, fancy attire appreciated
(This is the one event all weekend I promise not to sleep through!)
