Bait & Switch - In The MiX - CAMOUFLAGE

DJ WolleXDP exploring new paths?

“ #DeepTechno ”? “ #HypnoticTech ”? “ #DarkTrance ”? – whatever it is. I honestly have no idea whether this already qualifies as its own genre (maybe some of you do?), and as many of you know, I’ve never cared much for those kinds of labels anyway.

Here’s the backstory: a few weeks ago, I went to #Sisyphos with my girlfriend to finally experience my dear DJ dude #OliverHuntemann live again – someone I deeply admire. For me, Oliver is one of the most consistently reliable DJs when it comes to delivering exactly the kind of journey I love creating myself behind the decks: a beautiful trip where I can dissolve entirely into (collective) trance.

He didn’t disappoint.
But what struck me most was how he made me experience the #Hammerhalle in a completely new way.
I was genuinely blown away.
The last time I heard him play was at “#BuchtderTräumer” in the summer. I never would have imagined that he could bring that very special vibe of his into the Hammerhalle.
Wow – so that kind of thing really can happen here too?

Now, if you think I simply tried to imitate Oliver – then you don’t know me.
And more importantly, anyone who truly knows us both would understand that we have very different views on what music is – or can be.
Naturally, my track selection and my set dramaturgy are completely different from his.

But maybe what connects us isn’t something you hear – maybe it’s something you feel, from the dancefloor perspective?
For me, it’s always about energy. About depth. About emotion. And sometimes, it’s about that very specific calmness that certain tracks need to really shine.

But enough introduction.

Of course, this mix is still 100% #WolleXDP.
And yet – it’s different.
So different, in fact, that for me it marks something like a milestone.
I’ve been working on this kind of sound in my head for quite some time now.
And on Tuesday morning at Sisyphos, I finally got the chance to try it out – and to play all those tracks I’ve been collecting for years just for myself. Tracks I love – but never had the right context to actually play in public.

Special shout-out to the #lightingoperator – I’m almost certain they really felt the music.
The lighting matched the vibe perfectly and played a big part in what happened that morning.
What a joy!

Have a listen – maybe you can hear it after all?

I'm still super flashed... THANK YOU SO MUCH, one of the best birthdays I've ever had <3

MILLA LOU @Sisyphos HAMMAHALLE // 20.06.2025

On the midnight of Friday, July 4th, in a cozy little room called Hammahalle on the Hauptstraße 15, Berlin Rummelsburg... a group of duckies embarked on a three-hour psytechno journey. Their love turned the night into something truly unforgettable. #goosebumps!

Thank you for letting me write this chapter in the book — and for allowing me again, to be your musical storyteller.

War mega schön bei einem quasi leeren Floor anzufangen, der sich dann komplett gefüllt hat. <3 Und ey, was für ein schönes Festival.

Tellerboy b2b Marlene del Mar @ Nektar Festival '25

Und wieder einmal hinterlasst Ihr mich sprachlos nach einem dieser wunderbaren Momente der kollektiven Extase auf meinem Lieblingsfestival... Auch wenn ich es selbst erst einen Tag vorher erfahren habe, dass ich Britta Arnold für diesen wahrlich perfekten Slot vertreten werde und schon ehrlich gesagt etwas nervös war, ohne Vorbereitung diese Aufgabe anzunehmen -
Es war wieder mal der absolute Wahnsinn! 

DANKE dass ihr trotz des Regens von Anfang bis Ende da wart! Ich kann gar nicht sagen wie froh ich bin einmal mehr diesen grandiosen Floor mit euch zusammen durchgeknetet zu haben! :D

Danke Zauberwäldchen! 
Danke Klangtherapie! <3 <3 <3

Playtime: Freitag 1.8.  22:00-01:00
