Berlin’s techno scene has always been about more than just the music – it’s a movement, a community, and a cultural force. This spirit pulses through “Our Future Is Now,” the official anthem for this year’s Rave The Planet Parade which will take place on 12th July, crafted by none other than techno pioneer Dr. Motte and acclaimed producer Marc van Linden.
“Our Future Is Now” is more than a festival anthem; it’s a manifesto. The track fuses Dr. Motte’s legendary touch with Marc van Linden’s production prowess, resulting in a soundscape that’s both nostalgic and forward-thinking. Iconic synth stabs and acid-drenched 303 lines drive the track, while Dr. Motte’s intimate spoken-word monologue adds a personal, almost spiritual layer. The message is clear: the future of rave culture is being built on the dancefloors of today, and it’s a future defined by unity, hope, and unstoppable energy.
As the heartbeat of the Rave The Planet Parade 2025, “Our Future Is Now” pays homage to the roots of techno while calling ravers everywhere to action. It’s a celebration of everything the culture stands for – past, present, and future. The track serves as a rallying cry for the global rave community: join in, move together, and help shape what comes next.
All proceeds from “Our Future Is Now” will support Rave The Planet’s non-profit mission. The organization is dedicated to protecting, promoting, and celebrating techno culture, with the ultimate goal of having it recognized as UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage. The annual Rave The Planet Parade in Berlin continues the legacy of the original Love Parade, keeping the spirit of unity and freedom alive for new generations.
