Kayne & The Kozmos w/ Tom Bolas (April 13th, 2021)

We are more than happy to welcome Valentin (@valentin-hauptmann) to our hallooo Mix Series. He delivers the soundtrack for your next road-trip with your besties, full of sun drenched AOR-Folk-Fusion and uplifting Synth-Pop-Disco.  So roll down you windows and enjoy the cruse 🌞🚗✨

↓ ↓ ↓ INTERVIEW WITH VALENTIN ↓ ↓ ↓

Q: Thanks for your contribution to our mix series, how did you prepare for this mix, and how would you describe the eventual result?

Thank you for having me! After the sun finally showed up here in Berlin a few weeks ago I managed to get my ass up and put some music together. There were a few records I recently picked up with that certain summer mood I was in plus a few things I wanted to upload on the channel since a bit. Tried to make sense of all this with the rest of the things that are standing around here. I guess you can definitely get all your besties in a car, roll the windows down and blast this mix on your next adventure but listen for yourself! 


Q: Is there a record in the mix that you associate with a special story?

I have a certain emotional connection with that Johnny Star 7 Inch. Treated myself to it after handing in my bachelor thesis which has been a carousel ride for itself. Thanks again to Norm who was willing to let go of his spare. 


Q: How do you dig for new music?

I had phases were a spend a lot of time on Discogs but also love hitting up shops and flea markets especially while being on holidays and just going through everything that is there. Always looking for things that I haven’t seen before hoping it will either deliver a mood or make you want to dance. 


Q: One record you will never let go, one that doesn’t want to leave your waitlist and one guilty pleasure?

I will never let go of my copy of Yola Polastri’s Discoteque LP. Caminado Bajo El Sol is one of my all-time favs that pushes all the right buttons. 

One record that doesn’t want to leave my wantlist is the Spiegel B – Cool Down single. Didn’t pull the trigger the last time a copy popped up. Hit me up if you are willing to let yours go! 

One big guilty pleasure must be the whole Mini Stars series on Dino Music. They feature popular dance music tracks mostly from the 80s but with German lyrics sang by kids for kids. Please check out Jacqueline - Ferien Auf Dem Ponyhof which is a version of Jason Donovan’s Sealed With A Kiss to get an idea of what I am talking about. Too many great tracks to list here but if you understand German these will definitely put a smile on your face! 


Q: Music bonds people. Any djs/shops/etc.. you would like to shout out?

Sure thing! Very happy to have many passionate music lovers in my close circle. First of all William who encouraged me to record my first mix ever, Sandra (Frinda Di Lanco) and Henna Stein for giving me Italian lessons, the two Balearic Bananas Marvin und Phil, Dangerous Dave who’s is probably the most underrated DJ in Berlin (book him!), Los Chavales from Radio Relativa. I am sure I forgot some, but you know who you are! <3

Three years 🎉🥳 and what a way to celebrate... Thrilled and honoured to have digging 🐐 John Zahl AKA J.A.Z. out of NY whip up an extended tape for the the occasion. Near 3 hours of dancing delights to have you jogging on crutches, enjoy!

Music for Ears #36 - J.A.Z. 🇺🇸

Cha Cha Mambo, this is the name of party I’m directing at Nyapi. I’ve picked tracks which are the essence of Cha Cha Mambo. The overall vibe is joyful, with touches of cosmic, vintage, and latin flavors. Even though it’s freezing winter, I hope this mix brings you the warmth of summer. - @jeepsooni

Since the launch of our website we have been wondering who to ask for the first one in a new series of mixes until one of our absolute favourite DJs in the whole world placed an order in the store. Naturally, we wasted no time and immediately seized the opportunity to ask him for a mix. He was happy to do so and delivered very quickly.

We are excited to present to you this wonderful mix by the legendary digger, DJ and resident at the infamous Potato Head Beach Club in Bali that is DJ Dea. Just how he has managed to remain so fairly unknown for all those years is an absolute mystery to us.

If you enjoy this mix, follow him on Soundcloud, where you can find a few other mixes of his. You won't regret it to say the least:
