Prepare to dance: This year's Peacock Society was pure musical alchemy
International techno stars met a thriving Parisian scene at Parc de Floral

Marcel Dettmann, Warehouse
It’s a testament to the incredibly high quality of sets across the weekend that Marcel Dettmann didn’t immediately to stand out as a must-see. On any usual billing, the Berghain resident and MDR label boss would be just that. But at The Peacock Society, Dettmann was just another choice off the menu. That’s not to say his set wasn’t a masterclass in flawlessly mixed industrial techno. In truth, it may have been the most upbeat, vigorous set I've seen him play. The Berlin native played hard and fast, mixing quickly between melodic tracks like Shed’s remix of Moderat’s ‘Running’ and the electro-tinged ‘Solar Analogs’. Clearly relishing the cavernous space and excitable crowd, Dettmann played with a grin plastered across his face.
