A lover of house music since I was 17. In 1987 I danced at The Hacienda and since that night, music as always been my love affair.
As a student I would play the early House sounds of Chicago and the early garage sounds of NYC with some soul thrown in.

I stopped DJing in 1993 due to my feeling to the music at the time was lost and I began to be a serious collector of underground vinyl from the disco era. A huge reader of anything to do with Larry Levan and the NY scene in the 70's and 80's I began bringing that passion to my sound.

Rediscovered DJing in 2005 with my trusty lap top as a much loved hobby bringing all my musical influences together, creating personal mixes for friends.
 
My sound is heavily Paradise Garage influenced with a strong sway towards the nu house sounds mixed with soul and disco. I love the classics from my Hacienda nights and I continue to play these as they are still so great. I love soundtracks so my mixes hopefully reflect the perfect soundtrack of a moment.

Sebastian Rassloff - ein junger ambitionierter DJ und Producer, der seine Liebe zur elektronischen Musik erst relativ spät gefunden hat.

Sebastian wurde 1992 in Ansbach geboren, jedoch aufgewachsen ganz im Süden Deutschlands wo er in seinen jungen Jahren noch dem Genre des Punkrocks angehörte.
Im Alter von 17 Jahren besuchte er in und rundum seiner Gegend die ersten Technoparty´s, welche ihm und seinen Freunde den Pfad zur elektronischen Musik erkennen ließen. Voller Enthusiasmus und Staunen der Grenzenlosigkeit dieser Musik und dessen neuen Art des Feierns, fing er an mit seinen drei besten Kumpanen Party´s zu organisieren und veranstalten. Somit waren die ersten Erfahrungen hinter den Decks nicht weit und nach vieler erfolgreicher Events und Gigs quer durchs Ostallgäu gründeten sie im Mai 2012 ihre eigene Homebase Be.Float.
Im Laufe seiner eigenen Produktionen fand Sebastian sehr schnell seinen eigenen Stil, welchen er an einer ordentlichen Palette an Tracks wieder spiegeln lässt. Deephouse, unterstrichen mit einer ordentlichen Baseline und versehen mit einem träumerischen Vocal ist seine Leidenschaft. 
So entstehen 2015 die Veröffentlichung seiner ersten EP auf Operation Tiger Records, einem Sublabel der Familie Treibjagd Electronic Music und weitere Releases auf namenhaften Labels.

It was in 2011 that Dutch pair Lars Dales and Maarten Smeets quickly broke through in the electronic music scene. Since then they have become known for their widescreen approach to making and playing club-ready grooves. From deep to disco, tech to soul, they join the dots between the past and the present with their own sense of storytelling and do so in clubs around the world, as well as in their studio. House might be the root of the Dam Swindle sound, but it takes nourishment from a much wider world of music. 

Still now, their breakthrough tunes such as ‘The Wrap Around’ and ‘The Break Up’ receive countless plays on dancefloors all over the world and the duo has made timeless music such as their 2023 disco-house bomb ‘ That’s right’ and 90’s throwback banger ‘Allright – just a tribute’ that became one of the hits of the 2024 festival summer. Dam Swindle has built a trademark sound, while still evolving and maturing their craft in various musical niches. Their landmark 2018 album High Life shows a broad musicality from the duo and this is even more so on their highly anticipated 2025 long player ‘Open’.  ‘Open’ features countless collaborations with high-profile artists such as Dutch pianist Joep Beving and New York-based Ethiopian vocalist Haile Supreme, and sees the duo flex their sound from ambient electronica to synthwave, hiphouse and more. 

Since 2013, the pair has also established their record label Heist Recordings as one of the key independent labels for underground dance music, while also releasing music on other underground mainstays such as Aus Music and Classic Music Company. Heist is more than just a label, though - it is a breeding ground for talents old and new; somewhere talent is nurtured and allowed to develop. Label showcases and special projects such as the yearly Roundup EP; where all artists from the past 12 months remix each other after a random selection process, furthers the family vibe and helps Heist stand out from crowd. Artists such as Cinthie, DJ Sneak, Crackazat, Tesfa Williams, Makèz, Pépé Bradock, Matthew Herbert, Ge-Ology, Byron the Aquarius and many more have all contributed, proving that it is a place for unrestrained creatives to be free with their own sonic visions. The label looks as good as it sounds, too, thanks to visual artist Bas Koopmans's standout artwork designs. 
 
Proof of Dam Swindle's widescreen approach to production is their long and talented list of collaborators, which includes the likes of acclaimed musician Tom Misch, US talent Seven Davis Jr., instrumental collective Jungle by Night, plus Marc de Clive-Lowe, Jitwam and Lorenz Rhode. Next to their own originals, a broad spectrum of artists have asked Dam Swindle for some of their special remix magic: on labels like Strut and Soundway they have reworked the legendary Pat Thomas, aka the ‘Golden voice of Africa,' and gave his single ‘Yamona’ a contemporary electronic edge, as well as The Mauskovic Dance Band’s track ‘Space Drum Machine’ and plenty more artists like Kerri Chandler, Mayer Hawthorne and Tom Misch. As their talent for bridging genres from all over the world continues to attract global attention, high-profile projects keep rolling in from all points on the musical globe. 

Dam Swindle are famously avid collectors of both old and new records, and it shows in their DJ sets, which keep you on your toes as they move freely through the broad world of house music with skillfully blended moods of soulful techno, acid, breaks, disco and more, all to create those special moments that crowds never forget. It is for that reason that their name has become a real stamp of authority and invention in the dance music world. Whatever they do, then, this pair do with irresistible charm.
