Marcel Dettmann – My Own Shadow: Approaching [K7458EP]

Dettmann’s live project ”My Own Shadow” is, in his own words, ”a space where all of my artistic expressions meet,” blending techno with film, sketches and photography. The shows are less club sets and more immersive experiences, where the audience gets lost in a ”full sensory narrative.” My Own Shadow’s first official release, Approaching, is a five-track EP, complemented by his own photography on the artwork. The music spans techno and ambient, fizzing with a madcap funk and energy quite unlike any of his previous productions.
