Kracher Track! Release auf Vinyl wäre Zucker! :)

was für ein unglaublich tolles Set ♥︎ wow

wooooaaaaa!! was für ne energie!!! danke. love it!

So, I hear the upload of a @kater_blau -Debut often comes with a bit of a background story. So, here’s mine and be aware, it's going to be kick-you-in the-crotch-spit-you-in-the-neck soppy-sentimental: 

If someone had told me two years ago that I would play a show at my favourite nightclub in Berlin, I’d probably have declared them to be out of their mind. When the big night had finally come, I felt like embarking upon one of the scariest dares in my life. However, I miraculously managed to put all of my anxieties into a box right before the show, and instead enjoyed playing it tremendously - smiling, singing & dancing with everyone else. 

Of course, it went far from perfect. After my set, I realised that I had accidentally stopped the recording somewhere in the middle without even noticing, - probably with one of my clumsy dance moves. 😅 But I sure had a blast. In an attempt to recreate the magic, I recorded the set again, hoping, you'll still enjoy listening to it.

1000 times THANKS to some of my oldest & newest friends for the support that night. But above all, CHEERS to the best crowd I could've imagined! This was the best early birthday present EVER & I can't wait to be back! 💜

P.S.: Big thanks to @ueberhaupt_ausserdem for helping me with the mastering & for creating this well-tempered listening experience! 
Also, thanks to my lovely friends & team mates, who couldn't be there, but shared some soothing words with me before the gig & my excitement after - I'm so lucky to have you!!!

Play date: 18.02.2023

Auf federleichten Sohlen im Acid Bogen I 55 Stunden NonStop @KaterBlau

Here comes my recording from the Hot Situations event in New York City, US in May 2023.
It was my first time DJing so far away from Germany and I had such a good time. Apart from that, after a week in this amazing city with so many great people and overwhelming impressions - I am more than grateful.

Big thank you to the Hot Sits crew for inviting me, you guys are great - lots of love 💕

So let me tell you a story about this very spontaneous Fusion Set:
This year I was working at Sonnendeck and had some really funny, interesting and also stressful stageshifts with my beloved team from 3000Grad and Telekollegen. I loved it! Also because its important to me to take part in this very special festival-construct that Fusion is for me. I was a little sad, that I did not get booked (Everything else would have been a lie), because I wanted to play my new tracks so bad, especially "PoP"
Then it was Sunday morning and I got a textmessage by my friend Obi:

„Acid Pauli is playing your track right now“
Whaaaaaat?!?

Remember how I said I want this track „PoP“ to be played at fusion so bad? @acidpauli played it Sunday morning at one of the most huge stages: Palapa 😳  For real?!
Seriously this means the world to me! Especially this track #pissonpatriarchy 
it’s a hurtful fight to gain back self efficiency poured in a track ➡️ @mora_leipzig 
And the pain is turned into a huge crowd dancing!

I came to Fusion as a teenager, because I grew up in the area. I have been raving there every year since, when it took place and sometimes I even had the honour to play there myself in the last years. If someone would have told me, that my music will be played there one day by acts that I adore since decades on the hugest soundsystem, I would not have believed that. I am still crying over this.

Thank you Obi for this message! It was one of the few that came through. 
I planned to attend Acid Paulis gig, but I got caught in a good conversation with friends at the other side of the Acker. I was on my way to palapa and near dubstation when I got the message. And then I ran! While I ran, I did the math, if I can make it to palapa and still hear the rest of the track. What do you think? Did I make it?

Funfact: when @jpattersson started after Acid Pauli I got asked by @alma_linda and the Palapa Bar, if I wanted to play spontaneously there right after. Again: whaaaaaat?! I said yes, with a few Sonnendeck-stageshifts in my bones and greasy hair, not having showered since days, I ran to my tent to get my headphones and Dj-stuff (well I had it with me, you never know 😅), put on some dryshampoo, painted myself a face haha and played. And here we are: have fun with the recording of this very f*cking spontaneous Fusion Set :D
I played "PoP" myself (yeahyeahyeah!) and I also played the Remix of my track "Weiter" by @andys-echo and a track by my friends @propellar_music , because they were dancing right in front of me these sweetiebois. Later the four of us closed the firespace with "Herz an Herz" by Blümchen.... but that's another story to tell.... #ithappened

This is a very spontaneous Fusion Set - Judith van Waterkant @ Palapa Bar 2023

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.

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 🧡
