The Legendary Brothers of Detroit Techno Announce the First New Release in 3 Years on 430 West
Detroit, MI, United States - Electronic dynamic duo Octave One announce the release of their new SINGLE and new LIVE TOUR for 2008.
Electronic dynamic duo Octave One, Lawrence and Lenny Burden, announce the release of their new SINGLE, “I NEED RELEASE” b/w “HERE COMES THE PUSH”, on their own reborn label, 430 West Records.
Collaborating once again with Ann Saunderson (the vocalist on their hit single “Blackwater”, 2002), and MC P.Gruv (from their “The Theory of Everything” album, 2004), the brothers have produced a dance floor heavy double sided single. “I Need Release” blends Ann’s angelic vocals with the Burden’s signature rough and tumble production style, while “Here Comes The Push” takes a percussion driven ride off the edge, with P.Gruv as your guide. The tracks are already gracing the decks of the likes of Jeff Mills, Laurent Garnier, Carl Craig, Richie Hawtin, and Claude Young among many others. This project leads to the release of Octave One’s first studio album in four years, “Summers on Jupiter” (September 2008), also on 430 West Records.
To celebrate the release of the new single and rebirth of the label, Octave One (octaveone.com) will be touring live through Europe and North America starting May 7, 2008. As a prelude to the new tour, the brothers have just completed special live dates in Moscow for the Propaganda Club’s 11th Anniversary celebration and in Amsterdam for the Awakenings’ 10th Anniversary Event. The first part of the Awakenings set was featured on Dave Clarke’s White Noise radio show. Downloadable for free directly from the O1 website.
