Westbam, Dr. Motte & Tom Wax present "Love is Stronger" for Rave The Planet Parade 2024
Rave The Planet Parade set to electrify Berlin on August 17, 2024
Berlin is gearing up for the "Rave The Planet" Parade, set to transform the city into a pulsating celebration of Techno culture on August 17, 2024. This year's parade promises to be even more monumental than the last, which saw over 300,000 ravers take to the streets. "Rave The Planet" is not just an event; it's a homage to the roots of the Rave movement, highlighting its global evolution and enduring influence.
Anthem of the Year: A techno powerhouse collaboration
The official anthem for this year's parade is a stellar collaboration between three Techno legends: Dr. Motte, Westbam, and Tom Wax. These iconic figures bring their unique expertise and passion to create a track that is set to become an instant classic. Adding to the excitement, Techno has recently been recognized as a UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage, providing a significant boost to the entire Rave movement.
Rave The Planet hymn: two visions, one passion
For the first time in the parade's history, the anthem features two distinct versions, each reflecting the personal style of its creators. Emerging from joint studio sessions, these tracks beat together like twin heart chambers for the "Rave The Planet" Parade.
The Dr. Motte & Tom Wax mix, expertly mastered by Perla Audio, delivers powerful spoken word elements, expansive pads, and a fast-paced 137 BPM Techno kick drum. In contrast, the Westbam/ML interpretation shines with catchy arpeggios, old-school beats, and soulful vocals, offering a fresh yet nostalgic vibe.
These mixes emphasize the unifying power of music, bridging the gap between Rave pioneers and the new generation. They embody a shared vision of love, hope, and peace, reinforcing the parade's core message: Love is Stronger.
