Marcel Dettmann - Duel

[cubett0]

WOW!

[purebokety]

Reminds me of the oldschool rougher chicago house stuff i still love with new styles mixed in.I can imagine those short bursts of sub sounding sweet on a system

[peterpeterson125]

die quintessenz der o-ton ballerei auf den punkt gebracht! so simpel und gleichzeitig massiv ohne ende! es lebe TECHNO !.!.!

[cuzraz]

Was in Warehouse Project last Friday when he dropped this track and it tore the place a new one, at the end of the day that's all that matters really.

so glad to hear this sound again, takes be back to mid 90's in detroit

[djsebasv10]

Owwwww Fuck!!! wath a sick tune, this will kill a lot of brains on the dancefloor

[MrMbland]

It sounds good to me .. Music doesn't always have to be a technically complicated & brilliantly composed piece for me to classify it as good or to appreciate it . Sometimes the KISS theory ,Keep It Simple Stupid ,works just find ,,especially for the floor !

any composer or musician with training - and many djs and producers actually have this musical training - appreciate the art of composition. anybody think you were marcel dettman himself by your reaction to my opinion on 1 track - and i reserve my right to an opinion. just don't like it - think its slack and i'm comparing it to my personal taste and an entire body of music - tool seems an appropriate word for a person who resorts to using "fuckspaz" - and yes it is JUST a LOOP with some fading

[footcrab]

@markkil Opinions are like assholes , where's the tunes you produce?

[markkil]

@footcrab i do other things with my time like put foods on the tables of people living in poverty - music is my release - but if you wanna hear techno - checkout the advent's kurva - i rest my fucking case!

[footcrab]

@markkil By the way you were speaking about it , I thought maybe you were coming from the position of someone who knew about music composition or production , but you're just another "Armchair Quarterback" who's position is reinforced by nothing.

[markkil]

@footcrab look footcrab - just because i don't make music doesn't mean i don't have an ear for it (i just wish that everyone filling the world with stuff cared enough about their craft to do it justice) - and there are principles of composition common to all acts of making and art. i don't live in the states and i don't care much for grid iron - that's obviously your thing. but i will make 2 points...

[markkil]

@footcrab 1. of all the music i do like, i just happened not to like this one. if people who like this track want their opinion respected then they should have the courtesy to respect the fact that i and others do not like it. me not liking it doesnt stop you or anyone else from liking it. 2. i don't like 1 track - and give my reasons for doing so. in return i am attacked by people who disagree. i am distressed at the attacks and the fact that in some of my comments i returned in kind...

[footcrab]

@markkil You're perfectly entitled to your opinion , but just as you are looking for people to respect your opinion , you in turn must respect peoples right to disagree with your opinion... especially in a public forum.

Having an ear for music does not automatically entail that you understand composition or production , so I would expect someone who comes across as speaking from a position of 'authority' on composition to have an understanding of it.

I'm from London , hate american football.

[markkil]

@footcrab i was in the clubs when the phenomenon we call techno first hit the decks. and while i have never released a techno track myself i have lived and i have composed. sure this might make me "old" but it also means i have experience it means i have heard alot of music and it means i have heard it all before. so you can take it upon my authority whether you like it or not if i think somethings crap then its probably crap.

[footcrab]

@markkil I'm 43 , been around the block and TBH you're still talking shite :)

[markkil]

@footcrab yes i'm afraid. reinhard voight, pole, auch have all created what you could call "tooling tracks" that you could add percussion, hi-hats, bass, beats to, to ix in a set but you know i think alot of their work is cohesive, original and well composed (well maybe not so much voigt). any dj can ad and remove tracks to beef up or tone down a release but then the creative thrust now lies with the dj and the credit cannot be given to the artist. i'm glad u like it but credit the dj : )

[cymen1]

@markkil

Every week is a loop with some fading, I love it :)

[MOllySixxxCA]

Dettmann is always on point, BIG track! What a wonderful way to end the year.

[cymen1]

Does Dettmann's track Kernel go anywhere? No it doesn't! It keeps people on the dance floor :)

Banger!

[EvadStreaklov]

killer.

[markkil]

it didn't really go anywhere - it just drops in and out

[cocabots]

@markkil

but it rips every dancefloor in shreds

[markkil]

@cocabots obviously the clientele of the parties you go to dont have their standards set very high - hahaha

[cocabots]

@markkil yeah sure, if you say so. You win.

[markkil]

@cocabots f@#%ing oath i do - it was a duel after all : )

[LawrenceHill2010]

@markkil Missing the point of Techno there, mate. It's a tool track for DJs to manipulate.

[LawrenceHill2010]

@orivaa91 Fair enough, but I doubt you'll find a Techno DJ who doesn't use EQ.

[markkil]

@LawrenceHill2010 - missing the point of youtube there, mate. it's a forum to provide feedback. i hear techno all the time so it's not like i don't get it its just some artists & tracks have the depth to stand alone - & others are just soundbites that if they need tooling obviously don't carry the strength to stand on their own without some help - if a track is nothing but a sound library that needs more work then call it that and don't try to elevate it to the status of legitimate composition

[LawrenceHill2010]

@markkil It's a tool track. It's basically just a loop.It's like something from 1994, without the distortion/overdrive. This is not a criticism. I don't thinnk any Techno artist would use such terminology as legitimate composition you pretentious fuckspaz.

[axebriegu]

@markkil i listened it at aquasella festival this summer and you can't imagine the impact of the track in the middle of a set....you don't expect to listen for that...for me it was one of the best tracks i listened in the ben klock & marcel dettmann set.... that sound is devastating! As other people say...it's a Dj tool faced to the dancefloor

[nuggi812]

jesus christ!!!

[cocabots]

I'm so glad this one is finally out, heard it a couple of times in his gigs last year and I always wondered what it was.

[Fuccyootoo]

This is the one for me :)

[cheaphair]

WooooHoooo!
