recorded live, playing an open-to-close set at spacerock saturday in seattle. was an unbelievable night and i feel the need to share it finally. there's flaws and there's tracks you've heard me play before, but overall this one was very memorable for me.

feel free to ask for track id's, though i won't answer them all, and you're more than welcome to id tracks yourself.

this had to be split in to two, unfortunately, due to soundclouds file limit, but they should mix seamlessly together without a hiccup. part one can be found here : https://soundcloud.com/cloutier/live-at-spacerock-saturdays-pt1

enjoy!!

LOCAL HEROES
The Hidden Talent: DJs of Berlin's Underground Scene
The electronic music scene in Berlin is globally renowned for its diversity and innovative character. While some DJs and producers dominate the main stages, there exists a vibrant underground scene that often operates in the shadows of public attention. In this article, we will explore the work of DJs who play electronic music in Berlin's local underground scene, focusing on their dedication to their craft rather than seeking widespread fame. Of particular interest is the "Local Heroes" online radio format provided by RTS.fm, which offers these DJs a platform to showcase their talent.
The Berlin underground scene is characterized by its openness, willingness to experiment, and independence. Here , Djs and producers develop their own musical identities away from mainstream influences.

The DJs in the Berlin underground scene span a wide spectrum of electronic music genres, ranging from ambient and experimental to techno and house. Each DJ possesses their own musical identity and individual style, often deviating from prevailing trends. Through the "Local Heroes" format, RTS.fm provides a space for this diversity, allowing listeners to explore new sounds and discover fresh talents that might otherwise remain hidden.
