They didn't start the riot? Maybe they did. Bringing some fresh air to Vienna's club scene DJ/producer/promoter duo Pola-Riot has established one of the most unique club nights in Austria's capital. The guys are known for their explosive sets, blending electro, future techno and house, destined to make crowds freak out big time. They played numerous national and international festivals and venues in recent years, for instance Austria's main open air Frequency and Urban Art Forms, the country's biggest festival for electronic music. 
Pola-Riot's body of work contains commissioned remixes for fellow countrymen like Amadeus Award winners Bunny Lake or Beta Bow (of "Second Streets Have No Name", which they later re-remixed with The Bloody Beetroots for their first album) as well as for artists like Dim Mak's Mustard Pimp. Their bootleg of Stardust's French house evergreen "Music Sounds Better With You" reached the No. 1 position on the HypeM charts. Pola-Riot's track "Superpimpin" got consecutive airplay on Kissy Sell Out's BBC Radio 1 show, which earned them a signing on Tommie Sunshine's imprint Brooklyn Fire. Jack Fox from Ireland’s national broadcaster RTÉ selected the track as the "No. 1 Tune Of The Year". Their collaboration with Beta Bow, the pop-driven indie-dance tune "Rubicon" spent a month in the charts of Radio FM4, Austria's main indie radio station, and was featured on the compilation FM4 Sound Selection 31.

HADE is a DJ and producer based in Cologne, Germany. Besides releasing footwork-inspired records as HADE + DWFL, and house, wave and disco mutations under his own name, HADE has played clubs and festival stages across Europe and the US alongside the likes of Hunee, Palms Trax, Jan Schulte, Phuong-Dan, Beesmunt Soundsystem, Elena Colombi and many more.

HADE also co-runs two club nights at Cologne’s Gewölbe, TIME TO: and Palms. In the past years, he helped launch Local Talk’s new sub-label Tune with the “Freek Tool” under his Theo Walbeck moniker, linked-up with Brooklyn’s Razor-N-Tape crew and released an EP of all-German edits on Berlin’s OYE Records. Most recently he started his show „Finds w/ Fiends“ with fellow selector Owns at Düsseldorf‘s Callshop Radio.

As a DJ and collector, HADE is fueled by a real passion for digging up German synth oddities, all things wave, dub and disco, under-the-radar raps, trancey wrong-speeders and Afro-Caribbean curveballs

monkey. is a Vienna/Berlin based label, publishing house and communication agency dealing with innovative music ranging from pop/rock to electronica/avantgarde jazz. 

We do have a long experience in A&R consulting, production and promotion - for Universal Music, Zomba, Warner and BMG Germany, for instance - but decided to run our own company to be able to serve dedicated music lovers (like ourselves) in a more creative and flexible way. 

Having started in 2000, monkey. cooperates with companies like P&G (Hugo Boss), Austria Tabakwerke (Nil) or BMW (Mini).

We prepare agencies, film/advertising producers and professionals in any branch with premium indie sounds at affordable prizes. 

Our artist roster consists of Bauchklang, Ernst Molden, Son Of The Velvet Rat, When The Music's Over and some more upcoming bands and projects.

Besides, we're exploring new ways of business - i.e., we installed Austrias first "CD on demand" store at the "Museums Quartier" in Vienna.
