Mira is that rare kind of DJ whose music can immediately transport you into her world - a midnight circus in Berlin, where time loses all definition and anything becomes possible. 

Born in East Germany to a renowned photographer and a classical musician, she began DJing in 1996 and quickly rose to prominence as part of the growing underground techno scene around Leipzig and Halle/Saale. Her dedication to her craft and natural talent swiftly paid off with a series of rapid successes, leading her to substantially shape the electronic music scene of Eastern Germany from that point on. 

In 2006, Mira moved to Berlin, Europe’s capital of electronic music, where she found her musical home at the legendary Bar25. Situated on the banks of the river Spree with parties that lasted into the middle of the week, Bar25 was the true embodiment of Berlin’s club scene in the 2000s. In the company of notable artists such as Nu, Acid Pauli, Feathered Sun and Christopher Schwarzwälder, a musical language was being formed that looked past the minimal trends of the time towards a more nuanced, organic musical language. 

It was from this here that Mira rose to fame throughout Europe and the world, as she suddenly became a defining representative of a distinctive sound that was going global. Deep and soulful whilst always maintaining a continuous, sensual groove, Mira’s sprawling, hypnotic sets became the soundtrack for many an endless night at Bar25, Kater Holzig and now, Kater Blau. 

The centrepiece of Mira’s residencies at these clubs has been her yearly birthday event ‘Katzen Tanzen auf’m Tisch’, which runs for three days straight every December. Curated by Mira from a selection of old friends and new faces, the series has hosted a multitude of  then-unknown artists who have now gone on to tour the globe. In 2020, Mira’s birthday series came in the form of a compilation for the first time, showcasing the spirit of her events over 43 original tracks. Also a year-round booker at Kater Blau and curator for the Kater-affiliated label Kiosk I.D., Mira’s fingerprints are all over the sound of the club.

In the studio, Mira often collaborates with her partner-in-crime Christopher Schwarzwälder, and the two of them have released a host of chart-topping singles. This partnership has since carried on to dancefloors globally, where their legendary back-to-back sets make for a perfect musical dialogue between the two artists, who share a deep understanding and love of sound.

Mira has been at the height of her game for the past twenty years, continuously shaping the sounds around her, and never ceasing to push inspiring new artists. As happy playing in a small underground club in East Germany in the 90s as she is playing to thousands of festival-goers at Burning Man - Mira is one of those artists of whom you can truly say that she’s doing it for the love of the music. 

Every time a new track by some undiscovered producer falls into her lap is a new moment to fall in love again with her craft, and spread that love with the tens of thousands who hear her play.

If we think of those magical moments out on the dance floor, what likely comes to mind is that moment when the DJ and the crowd find each other in a rare kind of symbiotic balance of give and take. If you see this happening between two DJs it becomes obvious that two of a kind have found one another.
Those who love this kind of confluence will adore watching Mira and Chris Schwarzwalder doing
what they do best; playing back to back.
Having influenced the East‐German techno scene throughout the last twenty years, Mira established her musical home in Berlin’s legendary Bar25. There, she shaped her very own unique sound that can be considered as a story of these endless nights full of intensity.
Bar25 was also the place for her to meet DJ and producer Chris Schwarzwalder. Moving from his Hip Hop­‐roots towards electronic music, it was not by accident that Chris followed the beat of time to Berlin.
Anyone who has experienced their endless sets already understand why Berliners speak of the particular sound being created by both of them.
A soulful, mesmerizing sound that you will sense sinking under your skin and leaving you with a feeling of deep warm­‐heartedness.
What happens is the perfect chemistry of classic mixing skills along with ingenious live productions that really deserve to be called a moving experience.
All of their styles and sounds can, not only be discovered live behind the decks, but also on prosperous vinyl and digital releases.

Bio:
Playlove was born as a Sunday..s Child named Nathalie Brunner in Vienna 1981. Her parents live in Nigeria (West Africa) at that time where she spends most of her childhood surrounded by sun, sea and a lot of love. She is addicted to music from the beginning on. Dancing on the backseat of the car to Depeche Mode, Madonna, Prince and all the other records her parents were listening to. Playlove early gets in contact with electronic music styles such as trip hop, jungle and techno. Love at first sight! She buys her first turntables at the age of 19 under the influence of her uncle Tom who earns his money as a dj in London, New York and Miami. In a little while Nathalie starts spinning at the parties she launches together with her close friends from the Team O¨KM (association for the preservation of austrian body-music).

Ever since Playlove spends her time djing, working as an audio engineer and organizing parties. In 2003 she starts setting up her own clubnights (Dual Sensor System - Welcome To Electro Boogieland) that finally lead to the opening of the now legendary club 'Cabaret Renz' in Vienna. Alongside she programs the electronics for the jazz band 'Auddiction', joins 'Acid Eddy & die Ho¨hlenmenschen' for experimental live showcases, forms 'Bunny Hop' an audio-visual live act and helps setting up the underground techno parade/demonstration FreeRePublic 2003 in Vienna. Playlove leaves Vienna In 2004 to start as a promoter in Munich. She begins her career at Michael Reinboths well-known Compost Records and moves to Upstarts underground label legend Disko B and the affiliated Chicks On Speed Records. Soon she finds her club residency at 'Rote Sonne'. Still unable to rest, she lives and workes in the Bavarian capitol, always in a hurry to move things, start new projects, fill spaces and decides to join Electric Indigos 'Female Pressure' Network.

After these very wild years it was time for her to move on. In 2008, just one day after she finished studies and passed her exams in Munich, Nathalie moved to Berlin. As a goodbye present, Disko B sent her to play at their Labelnight at Club Tresor Berlin. The enthusiastic club-promoter invited her to be resident at this legendary Club right away. After a little while working as a full time dj around Europe she was seeking for a new challenge and found it as a film editor in Zurich (Switzerland). Still in 2008, still addicted to bass and with her lovely attitude she became a shooting star in the local underground techno scene.

Playing at the finest underground in- & outdoor events around Switzerland, Playlove soon was resident in the major clubs and festivals such like Hive, Cabaret, Lethargy and Schatzalp. In 2009 her good friend DJ Nat invited her to become part of the Scandal! Crew, who are well-known as the freakiest bunch of crazy woman doing scandalous underground-parties in and around Zurich since 2005. With her special energy she soon organized a regular party for the crew every three months at Club Cabaret.

Beside organizing events she is well booked with her unique mixture of trippin techno, dirty house and deep detroit. This vienna girl with her big music-lovin heart rocks the dancefloors of this planet! Spinning Vinyl in places like Bar25 (Berlin), Arma17 (Moscow), Razzmatazz (Barcelona), Club Tresor (Berlin), Rohstofflager (Zurich), Ritter Butzke (Berlin), Malzfabrik (Berlin), Kubik (Berlin), Superkronik (Leipzig), Suxul (Ingolstadt), Pratersauna (Vienna), U60311 (Frankfurt) and Festivals like Kazantip (Ukrain), Streetparde Mainstage (Zurich), Lethargy (Zurich), Vision (Switzerland), 25th Anniversary of Nachtschattenverlag (Interlaken), Shining (Bavaria), Female Pressure Tour (2008), Marry Klein (Harry Klein/Munich) and many more.
