Podcast XLR8R Podcast - Marcel Dettmann

[[ms]_Podcast_Bot]

At this point, Berlin and techno are inextricably connected, and though the city's techno history contains all sorts of important figures, few would question that Marcel Dettmann has played a key role in the music's growth and development. Best known for his long-running residency at Berghain, Dettmann actually started DJing in the mid '90s; still, it's within Berghain's walls that he's been able to spend the better part of a decade fine-tuning his sleek brand of propulsive hard techno. At the same time, though he's an essential component of the Berghain/Ostgut Ton stable and will likely always be tied to its legacy, Dettmann's reach isn't limited to a single corner of the electronic landscape. (He does run a label of his own, the simply titled Marcel Dettmann Records, and has also dropped records in recent years on the 50Weapons imprint.) It's no exaggeration to say that Dettmann is one of today's techno giants, which is why we were thrilled when he accepted our invitation to put together a mix for the XLR8R podcast series.
