"It's as a DJ that Marcel Dettmann does his most outstanding work. He is a talented producer (Dettmann was compelling in its bone-dry austerity, Dettmann II less so), but his DJ sets-as gritty, chewy and funky as his productions are pared-back and severe-achieve an expansive, expressive freedom. With his technical skills and signature sound honed to electrifying perfection, Dettmann can pack incredible drama, sonic variety and emotional nuance into a CD-length mix".
