Waaaahh! Goosebumps!! wasn des für'n track bitte?!

Sooooo... first of all I have to say, it was not only my first time playing at Sisyphos. It was also my first time ever! So when a good friend showed me around I was stunned by this beutiful island. I mean, I've heard rumors and stories, but I had no clue. 

Than, when we entered the Dampfer, I had a little breakdown. An hour before my gig it was packed from one end to the other. I was so nervous! Planning on playing my usual sound I knew that I was at least 10 BPM slower than other DJs playing here. Would it work out?

But, yeah, what can I say... I was welcomed by a hungry crowd from the first kick on and together we hit it off for 3h straight! The first nervousness vanished and time flew by in a glimpse.  And than something unforeseen happened: playing my last track I was told that the next DJ was missing and that I will have to play another hour. This last hour was not from this world! It will stay in my heart for a very long time.

So here it is, my four hour porschride through Dampfer! From 3 am till 7 in the morning. I'm so thankfull for the people who made it possible and who joint & supported me. I could've not asked for more!

Please enjoy! And as usual: leave a comment, repost and press like if you fancy to. I'm always happy about your feedback :)

Thank you @bisu-andyou for the recording & mastering <3

Here it finally is, the recording of our Liveset at Fusion at the beautiful and infamous Tanzwüste stage. All tracks are produced, mixed and mastered by Kon Faber, including a collaboration with Iorie.

The moment, when the first beat dropped, was an incredible release of energy from everyone who was there. And it did not stop until the last note. Playing at Fusion, at this floor, where we were standing so many hours as dancers, is such a beautiful gift. We could not be more grateful to have experienced this as Kon Faber on stage, sharing all the sounds we created and produced in our studio in Berlin. The preparation meant a lot of sweat and tears, with the last track produced just one week before but it was definitely worth it.

Moreover, this gig was so emotional because everyone around us has shown so much appreciation and love. So many of our friends came by, our friend and studio Jazz Saxophone player, Marius joined us on stage, and @pauli-pocket, @foolik were the most considerate and supportive Stage Managers.

Thanks to Südpol for envisioning us at Tanzwüste and making this possible.

Kon Faber Live @ Fusion 2023 / Tanzwüste

dear fusionists & fusionistas,
thank you for that intense journey of freedom, hedonism, friendship and wonderful moments again. :)
i am happy to share my 4 hours recording played at the firespace thursday evening from 8-12 pm, where we had a time of high energy & connections and a space full of flowers, dancers & fire artists.
once again, big shoutout to the firespace crew giving me the space to express myself in service for the sweetest sound to flow & chill and thank you all you lovely humans & friends, who made these 4 hours for the best time i could have during this year´s "fusion festival"

El Batos @ Fusion Festival 23 // Firespace (extended Sunset Session)

I travelled home from the fusion festival site in several trains, listening to fine music, that I've been collecting in playlists for over decades now. When listening to this, watching the landscape pass by, it sometimes feels like being in a movie and the soundtrack is kicking in and maybe a little tear ran down my face. I felt empty and full of feelings the same time and tried to capture these whole festival-experiences in this tape. Have fun with my fusion recaps from the last years ;)
From my festival diary:
We discussed the universe, we put music into colours, we were smart and dumb together, switched off our heads, talked about in what kind of a society we want to live in, on and next to the dancefloor, we danced, sang along, cuddled, kissed, cried and fighted. We did not sleep enough for sure and sometimes it gets very grey what was so colourful before, when we are not in good company anymore. The devil comes and hugs us. I try to imagine then the people, that love me, by my side <3 you know who you are ;)

The audios are taken from voice-messages from my phone obviously :) and documentaries such as:
the one, when Olli Schulz visited me on the 3000Grad Festival site:
https://www.ardmediathek.de/video/sound-of-germany/folge-3-spass-s01-e03/ndr/Y3JpZDovL25kci5kZS84NDRhNTMyMS0xYTcxLTQ4MDAtYThmNC1lMzU2ZDJmODFiZGU

and "Hass gegen Queer" (Triggerwarning!)
https://www.ardmediathek.de/video/dokumentation-und-reportage/hass-gegen-queer/das-erste/Y3JpZDovL2Rhc2Vyc3RlLmRlL3JlcG9ydGFnZSBfIGRva3VtZW50YXRpb24gaW0gZXJzdGVuLzIwMjMtMDctMTlfMjItNTAtTUVTWg
because this is a huge subject we need to talk about in our scene! I am not a fan of spoiling the fun, but festivals are not a safe space also. A fact that is ignored by too many guests, artists and people in charge. We need change!

After the festival I was part of a panel by "My body is not your porn" at about blank Berlin. I was so empty, but I tried my best. Thank you so much to the organizers and the awareness-crews and guests that have been there!

Matahari & Volker Arnold - Traumcast Nr. 40

This weekend was a blast. 
Its hard to describe the pure joy that we felt during our set on saturday evening from 7-9pm. 
But we give it a shot and try to take you with us to this moment. 

First of all, it was raining cats and dogs for most of the weekend, so we prayed for some good weather. 
When we arrived at the stage, while @reyneke was playing his live set, we were shook by his intriguing sound but also the amount of people that gathered in front of the stage, ignoring the rain from toe to head. 

When we started playing, the blessing happened and it stopped raining, followed by the sun, appearing 30mins later for the second and only time at this day. 
To watch the people turning and applauding the sun was just heartwarming and what we wished for. 

The music was a built up, from warmer tones to heavy hitting bangers and back to an outro that released the tension that we built up during the last hour of our set. 

Beside one technical issue, everything went fine, but the issue was to fun, to not share it with you. 

It happened that one player froze while I (Senior) was searching for the next song to play. 
In pure adrenaline, a short evaluation of how long the actual song  should last, I decided to just restart the player. 
After pressing the shutdown button fully in, I noticed, that the playing track was launched from the player that I was up to restart. 

With the finger on the button, fearing to let it go (it felt like stepping on a mine and then noticing, that you now cant move) @marholz calmly decided to just give it a shot and hope for the safety-loop-function that the pioneers should have activated. 

It worked and in the following 15 seconds we picked the next song and mixed it in, hoping, that no one noticed our little melt down, fearing that the music would stop midset. 

But hey it worked out ;) and overall we had the feeling that we could share a special moment with alot of people, regardless of one failure. 

After this little incident we continued and were happy to hand over the turntables to @sahrabass afterwards, knowing that she will turn up the heat for good.

Thank you @friendlyconnections for the invite and to all the people behind the @zugvoegelfestival that made it happen due to the bad weather and all difficulties that come with it. 
To all the people on the dancefloor that expressed their joy and to all the ones that came over afterwards to have a little chat with us. 

🧡 your @marholz & @seniorcitizen_wav 🧡

So many wishes, feelings and intentions gently at the same time full of passion entwine around this set. Especially on Polish soil, where politicians have decided to prosecute same-sex love, we wanted to make a statement. A statement for free love, a statement for freedom, a statement for togetherness. And so we share with you this hybrid live set, for which we wrote so many lyrics and put a lot of heart and soul into it. We want to make one thing very clear: No law in the world has the right to put love in shackles. No law in the world has the right to suggest that there is something wrong with us. No law in the world has the right to put love in shackles. No law in the world has the right to suggest to us that there is something wrong with us for who we love. Because to love is a magnificent gift to the world and lovers should be free. Everywhere! Unconditionally! 
It is probably a phenomenon of our time to feel as much despair as hope. We have taken the stage for visibility and hope and believe that we can light a fire in people's hearts to oppose the cruel injustices of this time with home and unconditional love!

Thanks to all who made this experience on the Garbicz lake stage so unique! 

Unfortunately, the recording was quite broken, so we had to re-record some passages. But we tried to keep as much of the original as possible. We are always given goosebumps moments when we hear your energy. We appreciate every comment you leave and of course we are happy if you want to share the set. 
Thank you Tim Tabellion for the wonderful mastering work. And thank you Ines for this great artwork.

"The importance of art and music...
you can hear the sense of color in a way in your mind"

Hey world,
here is my set for "Hot Situations" in New York City this October! 
Thank you for the invitation to this exciting city and this place full of art in Downtown Manhattan <3

The importance of art and music: it brings people together, encourages dialogue, invites you to change perspectives, forms the muscle to understand relationships and so much more. Art and music-culture are important for a healthy society and are the backbone of a democracy. This is more important then ever, especially since this October 2023. Hoping for a peaceful future.

Thank you to the lovely @hotsituations crew :*

PS: when I was at the airport my friend @harrotriptrap sent me his very new remix of my track "Weiter" and I love it! I knew right away that I will trie it out in Nyc, so you can find this lovely piece of art, not released yet, in this set <3

The Importance Of Art - "Hot Situations" New York City with Judith van Waterkant - Oct 2023

Once upon a time there was a small astronaut
on a journey through space.
He flew through countless asteroid fields,
discovered new planets and species
and traveled to the edge of the universe.
From time to time he came back to earth
to tell the stories of his epic adventures…
