Detroit techno duo Octave One have announced the first phase of tour dates to mark the release of their recent album ‘Love by Machine’. Apparently selling out as a double vinyl package, the Burden brothers are now gearing up to bring the experience live with re-workings of the album tracks as well as incorporating much new unreleased material into the form of ‘Love by Machine’ live.
‘Love by Machine’ is a nod to the fact that the Burden brothers are apparent masters of their hardware. Both in the studio, where they cook up atmospheric house and techno with soaring synths and vocals and also in the live arena, where they are ‘celebrated as one of the most accomplished and forward thinking performers in the game today.’
Lenny: “We’ve been exploring the theme of connection with this project. How technology gives us the illusion that we are closer to each other more than ever. At some point humanity crossed a line where the devices that we created to bring us together are the same devices that are blocking us from organic experiences.”
Lawrence: “Technology is only a tool, which we also had in mind during the recording process. We decided to go back to how we used to make our records, when we didn’t have so many ‘sophisticated’ audio devices. Back to when we interacted in the studio together as musicians.”
