Welcome back to the Magician On Duty Journey Series!

On this edition we welcome Oliver Rottmann (@oliverrottmann)

Oliver Rottmann is born and raised in Vienna, Austria and came into contact with electronic music at the age of 18. Starting from playing only for his closest friends his reputation grew and the locations changed from basement parties to underground clubs. 

In 2015 he moved to New York to expand his musical horizon. A year later he moved back to Vienna and recently after that started to organize parties with his closest friends under the name 'Heimlich'.
 
Since then he focused on Downtempo and electronic world music and also transformed "Heimlich" into a fantastic record label!

I hope you enjoy this episode as much as I did!

Oliver Rottmann [Journey Series]

In the autumnal forest, there dances Pippo so free,
A master of grooves, in sunshine, as you can see.
Leaves gently swirl, the wind plays its own song,
He moves like there's no tomorrow, all along.

hello pippo, 
hello mellow,
happy to have you 🥰

We probably don't need to say much about the next artist in our beloved down. cast series, as her sound speaks volumes and should be familiar to any downtempo aficionado by now.

Of course, we're talking about @frida-darko, who for years has consistently delivered fantastic and carefully curated sound.

Being a part of the @rebelliondertraumer and @station-endlos-halle crews and having launched her own label project @tipping-point-music in recent months, one can always be curious what this versatile artist has in store for us next.

We're all the more thrilled to have her now as part of our series as well and wish you all a great time with the upcoming mix.

down.cast °76 mit Frida Darko

Last weekend I had the pleasure to join the celebrations for Rebellion der Träumer's 10 years birthday at Renate in Berlin.

This was nothing short of a spectacular weekend - with lovely people and amazing music for hours on end. Thanks to the packed, smiling and supportive dancefloor the three hours I was behind decks flew by (and I was super happy to get an extra hour on top of my original two!).

Loving high fives go to the friends in front row and to all the dancers, and a special thanks to those who went out of their way to give a word of appreciation after my set, both at Renate and after the event: I usually get super shy when it happens, but it means a lot.

A huge thanks to Renate for hosting the shenanigans and to the Rebellion gang for the invitation and the care - I felt right at home from beginning to end and look forward to connect with y'all next time ❤

🎵 Soso Klein b2b Domjan [ at ] Chateau Perché festival 2023 - Le Cèdre Olympien Stage Closing[ Live - Special ] 🎵

The fantastic dj duo https://soundcloud.com/soso-klein and https://soundcloud.com/eldomjan recorded an stunning closing set at the Chateau Perché Festival 2023. This Mix is for true a gem and includes an wide range of different downtempo music faraway from here and now. Made for an afterhour.


Recording date: 8.07.2023, from 5am-8am & +++.
Venue: Chateau Perché Festival 2023 
https://www.facebook.com/ChateauPercheFestival

+++ Interview +++
✔️ What are your musical influences?

Sophie:  I come from a family where classical music was always played and listened to, and  I played  piano & harp during my childhood. I later discovered electronic music, then downtempo music from Germany, and immediately loved it. Today, Ninze and his project Wide Awake are a main source of inspiration for me, but I like to mix different genres in my DJ-Sets.

Damien: I was mainly a huge fan of the 60-70 psychedelic rock or progressive rock but I also loved the blues, soul, disco or Spanish flamenco or French and Italian singer/songwriter. I wanted to be a rockstar at 14 years old and started playing the guitar and the piano. I ended up being a DJ and had the opportunity to play in nice venues. Cool! :)

✔️ What do you think makes a good after-hours?

Being able to offer some change in the dynamic of the party. Giving a fresh air and a new perspective to people to enjoy music in a different way. In our opinion it is often at the end of the parties that the dance floor kinda have a nice unique vibe where you feel that the crowd is really united. 

✔️ What thoughts would you like to share with us about the gig?

It might sound a bit cheesy like those motivation speeches you can hear or read on the internet but in this case we kind of feel it this way. Doing a set together is not always easy, but in the end we really loved the result because it reflects both of us and we really managed to overlap the songs in a very coherent storyline.

It was awesome since we played this set exactly one year to the day after our first b2b at Kitkat Club in Berlin. It was a great honour and pleasure to be reunited again behind the decks to play for the closing of the main stage " Le Cèdre Olympien" at Chateau Perché Festival in France. We would like to thanks all the dancers who made the ride with us and stayed until the early hours of the morning, Christian Kahl for the invitation,  and the Kamiwaza crew for building this amazing stage. And last but not least, we thank Afterhours sounds for including this memorable set in your wonderful Podcast serie. MERCI <3 We hope you can enjoy this recording.

Hej lovelies,
here is the set that I played last Sunday at Beate Barfuß at Beate Uwe. It has a few weird tunes, but I was so excited to play a proper downtempo set again, that I wanted to share it with you anyway :)) Thanks a lot to everyone who came out and grooved to this <3<3<3

💿 Katzen Tanzen Auf‘m Tisch 💿

Bei dieser Spezialausgabe des KataHaifisch Podcasts handelt es sich um ein Live Set von einer "46 Katzen Tanzen Auf‘m Tisch"  🐈‍⬛ aus dem Kater Blau. Schöpfer dieses musikalischen Meisterwerks ist das Künstlerduo thea & schtu. Seit 2020 musizieren und produzieren die beiden gemeinsam Musik unter dem Credo „slow & with love“. So entstanden phänomenale Songs & Releases auf beispielsweise down., Akasha MX oder auch Beyond. Mit diesem Live Set bleiben die beiden einmal mehr ihrer Frequenzessenz treu und verzaubern Gäste- wie auch Hörerschaft gleichermaßen.

Wir freuen uns sehr, diesen Hochgenuss elektronischer Musik anbieten zu dürfen und wünschen viel Vergnügen 😻

What an astonishing year lies behind us? So many fascinating and driving Traumcasts accompanied us throughout the times 💫

Now we’re closing the year with a very special treat for us all: Kon Faber (@kon-faber) contribute their Liveset from our 10 years anniversary at Renate, Berlin! The set is packed with original mixes and remixes by @madota, @fabiankrooss, @ladsmusique and @iorie.  🎶

Lets follow these two cuties on a 1.5 hour ride through their Kon Faber House. What’s that? you ask? It’s a pretty yummy combination of your favorite elements of house, deep house and Kon Faber Sync Bobbly Heads. 🫧

The groove is so sunny that it’ll melt away your winterblues while the vocals and synthesizers form a gluey cover of happy faces and vibrating hips. Carefully they rise the temperature of the floor till it hits just the sweetspot to roast our synapses in colorfull ecstasy till they release us wobbly as a rainbowy slinky.

Three bouncy questions to our favorite boyband! :)

🦩 What are your plans as Kon Faber for 2024?
Soo many plans! The year will be kicked off with our tour in Australia / New Zealand in February and followed by our first EP on A Tribe Called Kotori in March, which we are super excited about. Also, our first Konverge party is this Saturday, 16.12., and we expect more of that in 2024. Also, we've got a lot of collabs lined up with e.g. LADS, Madota, Javid, our dear Frida Darko & Atric, and more. Can. not. wait.

🦩 What's the best piece of advice you've ever received, and how has it influenced your life?
Travelling is the best teacher in life. My mom has taught me (Bene) how important it is to stay curious and open-minded, and has taught me to see the world. I couldn't imagine who I would be without having met different cultures all across the world, and having learned how to change perspective on people, things, everything.
Nils: My parents simply showed me how much beauty there is in music and it completely influenced the trajectory of my life. 

🦩 What is your favorite procrastination activity?
Playing Chess (I'm not good but enthusiastic, Bene)
Taking outrageously long breaks (Nils)

Ein Jahr geht zu Ende...
Rückblickend aus meiner Position, war es ein so tolles Jahr.
Heyo, seid achtsam im Leben, respektvoll und wertschätzend gegenüber Mitmenschen und vielen grossen und kleinen Dingen im Leben,
Ich bin dankbar, das Jahr mit diesem Set abschliessen zu dürfen – mit vielen wunderbaren Herzensmenschen.
Vielen Dank für die Unterstützung, die tollen Begegnungen, die spannenden Gespräche und allen Künstler*innen und DJs,
die mich das Jahr hindurch immer wieder inspiriert haben, und für jede Tanzstunde mit euch.

Abenteuerliche Odyssee durch verrückte Welten. シ
✳︎
Deep Love with da music. Und wie das eben so ist, wenn Mensch etwas liebt, viel Herzblut und Freude reinsteckt, dann ist Musik nicht nur die angenehme Aneinanderreihung von Tönen, sondern Sprache, Heilung, Verbindung, Entwicklung in einem. 
✳︎
Was das Mischen von Musik angeht, bekam Akira Kawaakari das Handwerkliche schon während seiner Jugendjahre mit auf den Weg. Technics 1210er, Hiphop-Scheiben der 90er und los. Doch ist Musik eine Reise, die ihn zu unser aller Glück an den elektronischen Klängen vorbeiführte. Immer offen für Neues ist Akira Kawaakari Tourist zwischen den Sound-Schmankerln der Welten: aus Basshausen per Anhalter in den Melodie-Urlaub – vom Peak-Panorama im Progressiv-Massiv wieder einen Abstecher nach Indie-Länd und zurück.
✳︎
Mit seiner aufrichtigen Liebe zum Sound möchte er Liebe stiften, zur Bewegung bewegen, durchs Mischen von Tracks die Menschen vermengen.
