“Born and raised in Detroit” should run as a footnote in venues every time we witness a performance by Octave One. This line would be the answer to the array of open mouths witnessing the duo’s energetic twisting and pushing on synth knobs and sequencers buttons, all whilst turning their physicality into pure vessels of funk, house, and symphonic beats.

Serving as the musical backdrop to an era that never fades, Lenny and Lawrence Burden have brought us “Black Water”, a hit which sold over a million records worldwide and is still revered and played today.

After decades of touring and music making, their spirit and fundamental energy remains as inspired as it has ever was, and their craft a sustained representation of all that is great about dance music.
