Happy Birthday, Telekom Electronic Beats! Virtually no other brand initiative has had such lasting, influential involvement in music culture as Electronic Beats over the past 20 years. Deutsche Telekom succeeded in establishing a central platform for electronic music culture in the form of this international program. It is now publishing a book to mark the initiative's 20th birthday, with contributions from Billie Eilish, Bryan Ferry, Lars Eidinger, and many more. A digital content campaign is also being launched to mark the anniversary.

"With Telekom Electronic Beats, we have been leading the way fearlessly for the last two decades. We have shown fresh ways of thinking and have set trends," explains Ralf Lülsdorf, International Market Communications at Deutsche Telekom. "By collaborating with global stars such as Billie Eilish, Depeche Mode, Grace Jones, and Gorillaz, as well as highly promising newcomers, we have created valuable social experiences."

Many brands have come to realize over time that pop culture and music reach people and inspire them to act. Very few have been able to develop a long-term relationship. Virtually no other brand initiative has had such lasting, influential involvement in music culture as Telekom Electronic Beats over the past 20 years.
