Celebrating Mike Huckaby

In episode 3, the production team (Reggie Dokes, Jennifer Washington, Kristian Hill, David Grandison) behind upcoming feature-length documentary God Said Give ‘Em Drum Machines: The Story of Detroit Techno celebrate their friend, and legendary Detroit DJ, Mike Huckaby. Huck is remembered not only as a DJ, but as an educator, as a leader, and as the one who gave the GSGEDM film its title and the team the inspiration to keep pushing to the finish line. Other Detroit legends - Eddie Fowlkes, Robert Hood, Rick Wade, Derrick May, and Carl Craig - also share special memories about Huckaby with the team.
