# Carl Craig

Carl Craig (né le 22 mai 1969) est un musicien américain originaire de Détroit, DJ et producteur de musique électronique et de jazz. Il est considéré comme l'une des figures majeures de la seconde vague de la techno de Détroit. Il a fondé son label Planet E en 1996.

Son pseudonyme Paperclip People est probablement inspiré de l'opération Paperclip. C'est sous ce pseudonyme que Carl Craig a collaboré avec le duo allemand Basic Channel.
