Review by Moses Jimmy

MDR 019 is a stunning album by the German techno artist, Marcel Dettmann, released under the name Act. The album comprises eight tracks that showcase Dettmann's impeccable production skills and his ability to craft dark, brooding soundscapes.

The opening track, "Roar," sets the tone for the album with its relentless, pounding beat and eerie, atmospheric synths. As the album progresses, Dettmann takes the listener on a journey through various shades of techno, from the hypnotic "Drone Sector" to the menacing "Distrust."

One of the standout tracks on the album is "Fast Lane," which features a driving bassline and distorted, glitchy percussion. The track builds to a fever pitch before dropping into a minimalist breakdown that is sure to send shivers down the spine of any techno enthusiast.
