Marcel Dettmann

Seeing Marcel Dettmann perform live was somewhat surreal. He’s, in my opinion, one of the top electronic dance music DJs around at the moment, and as he plays frequently in one of the hardest clubs to gain entry to in the world, it’s difficult to get the chance to see him play! When I finally had the chance to see Dettmann perform, the atmosphere was electric, and of course the venue was incredible.

The support DJ was great, but when Dettmann came to the stage, everyone erupted into applause, and as the techno music started booming out, and everyone was dancing like crazy, his energy translating immediately into the crowd. His futuristic compositions are original and catchy, and even people who hadn’t heard the music before were totally into the dancing and singing along.

He played a great selection of tracks from his albums, remixes, and actual improvised tracks on the spot which were incredible to see live. His endeavours to produce music that’s not been previously created takes the audience into the unknown realms of electronic music and they kinds of sounds that can be created. Every moment was incredibly exciting, and his talent really shone through all night.
