Back in the early 2000's when I came to visit my pops in Berlin for the summer, I picked up some CDs that were laying around and began to burn them to my harddrive. Among them were "The K&D Sessions" by Kruder & Dorfmeister, "New Dubby Conquerors" by Seeed, and "Aftershock" by Aphrodite - all of which came to play an immense part in my musical upbringing in the years to come! I can't count the number of times I've listened to "Aftershock" from start to finish.. quite possibly more than any other album I've listened to! It's one of those true stand out albums from the early 2000's "golden era" of D&B, taking you on a proper immersive journey through the unique sound of the legend that is Aphrodite!!
This Friday the man himself will be passing thru VOID Berlin, and anytime he does you know it's gonna be a proper roadblock (so better bring your sauna towels) π₯ I'm proper chuffed to be on the bill for this one (thanks Matze!) π

A bit of a last minute announcement as Iβve been swamped with work and usually in bed by 9 with no energy to do f**k all π€―π
Iβll be back at VOID Berlin this Saturday with one of my favourite DJs from back in the day MrJay π₯ so if youβre one of the 10 or so people left in Berlin who didnβt make it to Fusion you know where to go πππ

Heading back to Berlin on Saturday after a month in Martinique, just in time for the summer solstice! Gonna miss these epic sunsets and all the time spent at the beach, but also very much looking forward to diving right back into the city life after what seems like an eternity!! Here are some upcoming dates for the next months.. hope to see you there
Back in Berlin after a well needed week in the Italian alps with good friends - and right back to the grind! I've been kind of lacking motivation since the beginning of the year (and in the past months) - with all the grey weather in Berlin and no sessions to go to or play at - but I feel I'm slowly getting back in form and have been doing my best to keep up-to-date with new releases.. and since there have been so many recently, I wanted to record a new studio mix showcasing some of the tunes I've been feeling in the past months (in the 170 range)! Link in the comments ;-)
Spinning tunes tomorrow with some Very Unimportant People at
Ostbloc!! Swing by from 18:00 tomorrow for some loungey drum'n'bass right on the water front π₯ πΌ πThis will be my last set for a while, as I'll be heading to the US for a bit on Saturday, looking forward to enjoying the great weather with some familiar faces one last time this summer!
