Marcel Dettmann - Electric Drive

Following on from the release of his first album in 10 years in 2022, the expansive 'Fear Of Programming', Berlin techno icon Marcel Dettmann returns to announce a brand new EP, Electric Drive.

Dettmann's first release via our new label 'fabric Originals', will be released digitally and on vinyl on 16th June, with digital downloads being exclusively available via Beatport until 30th June - and here on Bandcamp from the 30th June.


A full-bodied cut of driving, digitised techno, Electric Drive thrives on intensity from the outset. Pairing a hypnotic yet truly dynamic synth centre-piece with a hard-hitting, no-nonsense percussive line, the track strips Dettmann’s signature sound to its raw elements - presenting an incendiary DJ tool that can ignite the potency of any set by force.


After spanning a host of genres within Fear Of Programming, Marcel Dettmann’s Electric Drive finds one of techno’s most revered names return to pure dancefloor ferocity. A glimpse of things to come, the project’s title track ensures that those tuned in to the more dynamic sounds of Berlin techno are satiated with a new soundtrack for late nights and early mornings from one of the sound’s most inventive artists.

Mastered and cut by Matt Colton at Metropolis. Manufactured at optimal-media, Germany.
