OCTAVE ONE
Arriving onto the electronic scene with “I Believe in 1990, Octave One is the brainchild of the phenomenal native sons of Detroit, MI (USA), the Burden Brothers. The core unit of the band, made up of Lenny and Lawrence Burden (with revolving members of Lynell, Lorne, and Lance Burden), have had the privilege of bringing their high energy live shows to many parts of the world, including Australia, Belgium, Denmark, France, Germany, Greece, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Netherlands, Portugal, Romania, Russia, Slovenia, Spain, Switzerland, UK, and the USA, among many other places.

The brothers have released ground-breaking dance anthems on their own Detroit based record label, 430 West Records, and have remixed tracks for such artists as Massive Attack, Akabu (Joey Negro), DJ Rolando (Jaguar), Steve Bug, John Thomas, Aril Brikha, Vince Watson, The Trampps, Rhythm is Rhythm, and Inner City.

2000 brought the most recognized Octave One release to date, “Blackwater”. The massive hit has appeared on over 30 compilation albums worldwide, with sales exceeding one million collectively. It has been released domestically in 5 countries (US, UK, Spain, Germany, and Australia).

Late 2006 brought the release of the first full length DVD/CD project from the group, Octave One featuring Random Noise Generation “Off The Grid”, released in cooperation with Tresor Records/Germany. 2009 saw the release of the band’s first studio album in 3 years, “Summers on Jupiter” released in cooperation with P-vine/Japan.

2011 welcomed the release of the Octave One retrospective compilation “Revisited: Here, There, and Beyond”, marking 20 years of living the Techno life. “Here, There, and Beyond” features classics reworked by some of the band’s favourite producers: Luke Slater, Sandwell District, Ken Ishii, Alexander Kowalski, Vince Watson, Alter Ego, Los Hermanos, and Cari Lekebusch.

watched this last night, was pretty interesting...

i think these guys are part of a dying breed. i dont think there will be a whole bunch of people playing live off hardware in the future, its cheaper and easier to do it on laptops and controllers these days. next friday night is going to be pretty special. i highly recomment people come check this out if they want to see something different from the standard dj gig - not that there is anything wrong with a good dj gig - but you can see those pretty much every week.

ANNOUNCEMENT: hi all, we have just been given the opportunity to host this as the first ever gig in a BRAND NEW VENUE.

This party is now being hosted at Mr.Kim's - a brand spanking new club venue as part of the Electric Circus complex on Crippen Place (right next door to Electric Circus)

THE GOOD NEWS: brand new venue, wicked decor, more intimate party, and one of the best small club sound system's in all of Australia! (which we get to break in!).

THE BAD NEWS: This club has smaller capacity which means available pre-sold tickets are STRICTLY LIMITED with a small amount available on the door.

w00t w00t it's party time!

(photo: Octave One live tour rig) It's been a few weeks in the lab working on some new thangs. Time to break the gear down and get ready for 4 weeks of madness. We begin in Australia for 2 weeks, Melbourne, Sydney, Adelaide, Perth, then back to the USA for West Coast gigs with Carl Craig in Seattle and San Francisco. Last stop for our debut in Malta. 1 week off, then we're back at it again! Hope to see you soon.....
