Description

We meet Detroit duo, Octave One, at ADE in the first of three shows recorded at the Andaz Hotel in Amsterdam last month.


Brothers Lenny and Lawrence Burden made their techno debut on Derrick May´s Transmat label with I Believe in 1989.


It was the start of their 35 year career and was included on the compilation Techno 2: The Next Generation.


It marked the start of their LIVE performance and shows they deliver in a very hardware heavy fashion.


With their other brother Lynell, they formed the record label 430 West Records to release the vinyl record Octave One "The Octivation EP" and have remixed recordings for Massive Attack, Joey Negro, DJ Rolando, Steve Bug amongst many others.


In 2000 they released their most commercially successful recording, "Blackwater" but say it took them in a direction they didn´t want to go and returned quickly to a more underground style.
