Episode 9 –Blake Baxter - Ghost

It’s the early 1990s, and Blake Baxter, originally from Detroit, is ensconced in the Berlin techno and club scene. Baxter’s relationship with Berlin has been established through his association with one of the city’s most important clubs, Tresor. In being one of Europe’s first techno venues, Tresor has developed an intercontinental relationship with Detroit, the location that many consider to be the birthplace of techno. One aspect of Tresor’s connection with the Motor City, involves their adoption of some of the early Detroit techno producers who have not received quite as much exposure as their better-known peers. Baxter, as one artist who falls into this category, not only djs at the Tresor club, but releases some of his productions through Tresor's record label, including the track, “Ghost”.
