David Guetta and MORTEN returned to their stomping grounds at The Brooklyn Mirage for another fantastic Future Rave performance.
Before the commencement of the Future Rave tour in 2022, which included performances at various venues, one being The Brooklyn Mirage, David Guetta and MORTEN made a deliberate decision to host a single, exclusive event back at Brooklyn’s electronic dance stomping grounds.

David Guetta expounded on the genesis of Future Rave in early 2020, driven by a desire to create distinctive music that would grant them the freedom to experiment, unburdened by expectations.
Guetta then expanded on how with Future Rave sets, he can play anything he wants compared to playing solo sets, with fans expecting his biggest singles to be played throughout the night, such as “Titanium” or “Sexy B*tch.” He also elaborated on his fondness for Ultra Music Festival in Miami, a festival he holds dear, yet acknowledged the inherent stress it brings as it marks the beginning of the festival season—a pivotal moment to showcase the tracks these two producers have diligently crafted throughout the winter.
Meanwhile, MORTEN shared his experience of performing at a plethora of shows.
MORTEN confessed that each shoe induces a blend of nervous excitement, particularly when the time comes to unveil a specific Future Rave composition and witness the electrifying reactions of their devoted fans.

When the clock struck midnight, David Guetta and MORTEN graced the stage, captivating the enthusiastic New York audience with a mesmerizing two-hour set.
