David Guetta and Marten Hørger launch new duo project ‘Men Machine’ at Coachella

David Guetta and Marten Hørger have officially introduced Men Machine with a surprise Coachella debut and a new wave of unreleased music.

David Guetta is stepping into something new with Marten Hørger, launching their joint project Men Machine. The collab feels like a natural move, but it’s clearly being treated as a bigger creative shift. This marks their first official run as a dedicated duo.

They first revealed the project live on April 11 during Guetta’s set at Coachella. Hørger joined him onstage at the Quasar Stage for a surprise appearance, where they played multiple unreleased tracks. The crowd reaction was immediate, with fans quickly locking into the new sound.

Even though the two have worked together before, Men Machine is a more focused concept. It’s not just a single release, but an ongoing project with more music on the way. The first batch of tracks is expected to drop in the coming months.

The sound leans into a mix of electroclash-inspired elements with a modern festival edge. There’s a blend of electro, new wave, synth-pop, and techno running through the tracks. It feels nostalgic, but still built for 2026 mainstage energy.

For Guetta, this follows his Future Rave project with MORTEN, which launched in 2019. That era helped reshape his club sound while still connecting to bigger festival crowds. Men Machine looks like the next step in that evolution.

It looks like Men Machine keeps things straightforward while pushing into new territory. It’s built for both club settings and large stages, without losing its edge. If the debut is any sign, this project is set to grow quickly.

Hey everyone, I'm Neil! I first joined the dance community back in 2019 when my friend dragged me to Moonrise, my first-ever music festival, and I became hooked ever since. I like to dabble in most genres with my favorites being tech house and melodic techno. When it comes to studio output, Camelphat is part of my daily listening rotation and for a live performance, I'll never miss a Solomun set. You can likely catch me on the dance floor somewhere in Brooklyn!
