Hailing from Detroit, the birthplace of techno, brothers Lenny and Lawrence Burden have built a career that defines the genre’s heartbeat. As Octave One, they've pioneered a fusion of soul and technology, delivering raw yet sophisticated energy to dance floors and connecting generations through sound. Their music isn't just heard—it's lived.
With their analog arsenal known as "The Mothership," Octave One delivers a live show like no other—electrifying and unmatched. Their command of machines and rhythms turns each performance into a one-of-a-kind journey through techno, house, and funk, redefining what live electronic music can be.
Their latest album Never On Sunday (2023), released via their own 430 West Records, merges sound, visuals, and narrative into a groundbreaking multimedia experience. With over thirty years of evolution, Octave One remains a driving force in techno, shaping its present and future with vision, skill, and authenticity.
