LUXXURY (Kitsuné, Future Disco, Boogie Angst, Eskimo, Deep&Disco, Big Beat) makes dance music for adults. Raw, funky bass-lines plucked with grown-man finesse. A mastery of space disco native only to those who lived through the late '70s/early '80s. Dust in the glitter that vibrates in the space between string stabs, bongo slaps, and guitar jabs—while the steady pulse and astral effects feel beamed in from a more cybernetic future Los Angeles. That's where the nu-disco wizard born Blake Robin dwells when he isn't on the road opening for Giorgio Moroder or the Juan MacLean, leading his 4 piece band on late-night TV or remixing live at DJ sets in Mexico City, New York and London. In fact, you might've first felt his deft touch via the controversial  LUXXURY Edits—where he uses multi-tracks (stems) of classic hits to create dubby slow-disco versions—but his original music is no less arresting, with a sound that reflects not only a newfound earnestness of expression but a lifelong love for the craft of disco.

Sometimes I pretend to be a DJ. (Sometimes it even goes quite well.)

Now an established force in contemporary Techno, Mike Bierbach, better known under his stage name Rødhåd is someone who has seriously put in the work. Having cut his teeth DJing as a relatively unnoted (but well loved by those in the know) local in Berlin for 10 years, one could argue that by the time success knocked on his door, he was more than ready for playing the international stage. It was during these 10 years of obscurity when he refined his craft to become the singular DJ he is now. 

Launching his party-series-turned-label Dystopian in 2009 was what truly tipped the ball over for Rødhåd. In a time where the Berlin scene was heavily oversaturated by fluffy, miscellaneous dance music, he & his peers set out to form a platform for real techno. The reception to this was raucous. 

Although he has lauded productions and remixes to his name, DJing is his true forte. Before abandoning his day job as a draftsman in construction “The Red” (as some call him due to his gingered, bearded appearance) was known for playing very long sets in Berlin’s most notorious hideaways. 

With an album, several EPs & remixes for a multitude of different artists under his belt, Rødhåd the producer has received equal praise as Rødhåd the DJ. Dystopian has hosted most of his releases, but in 2018 he founded a new label WSNWG that serves as a home for collaborative productions, excavated in sessions at his East-Berlin studio with his peers such as Lucy, Alex.Do, & Antigone.

Music has always been my first love. From the age of 5 when I started playing the piano, to the first time I heard 'Children' by Robert Miles and fell in love with Electronic music. From a very young age I got involved in the clubbing scene as a dancer and performer, music has always been my drug and being on stage seeing people lose their minds to a drop, it puts a huge smile on my face. 

In 2012, after many years of writing poetry, I decided to start writing songs. At this time, well known Cape Town producer Grimehouse approached me wanting vocals for a track he had produced. I wrote some lyrics, recorded them and sent it to him. He loved the song and even persuaded me to sing it. The track titled "Me & The Music" was released a few months later. I worked on a few more projects after that, namely writing the theme song for the Dare to Share documentary about life on the streets and a few other small projects. In 2017 I  decided to follow my passion for DJing. It was a means to grow a following whom I could eventually play my own produced tracks to. Since then I've had the privilege of playing some of the biggest clubs and festivals in South Africa. I've also toured Asia, Africa and Europe as well as appeared on radio multiple times. 

House music is my musical language of choice, it speaks to me. In the words of Eddie Amador: "Not everyone understands house ... house music; it's a spiritual thing, a body thing, a soul thing." 

My style varies from Deep Organic House to Percussive/Afro Tech and Melodic House & Techno.
