QUIRKS 09 - Barbara Preisinger

Barbara and Basic Moves have been sending emails back and forth the last 7 years since she works at Scape Mastering alongside engineer Stefan Betke. She is a super skilled dj with a backpack full of experience and knowledge of club music and beyond. It felt logical to us to send another kind of email that wasn't an order form or payment confirmation. hahaha.

This mix puts both our feet back on the ground. Barbara fluently mixes minimal house and dub techno with a unique groove that feels so timeless and oh so clubbbbbyyy. Thanks a lot for teaching and showing us your way.

What’s in Barbara’s backpack? She started her career in Munich working for Disko-B in the mid nineties and soon became a resident at the green flokati room of the cult venue Ultraschall. In 1998 she left for Berlin to work as a freelance press and radio promoter. Around 1999 she co-found the label ˜scape, together with Stefan Betke aka Pole, creating an open platform for the productions of Kit Clayton, Jan Jelinek, Deadbeat, Pole amongst many others.

Autumn 2009 Barbara Preisinger founded the 12inch vinyl label SLICES OF LIFE which is focused on organic sounding and diverse club music, with releases by Betke, Mike Huckaby, Baaz, John Tejada and The Mole. The label´s founding year also marked the beginning of the event series DEEP IN THE BOX with regular parties at Berlin´s Club der Visionäre, Wilde Renate, Ipse among other places. In September 2015 Barbara Preisinger moved DEEP IN THE BOX to the Globus floor at Berlin´s legendary TRESOR club, where she has been hosting her parties every 2 months since then.

hi Barbara, please tell us a bit about this mix which I’m so happy you sent.. Where did you record it?

It was recorded a year ago 26.02.11, the first time I played at the Cabaret Party, Club Unit Tokyo.

You told me this mix consists of some old school records..so I bet there’s a few favourites in this mix. Which records have you always got with you in your dj-bag?

That’s not easy to answer. There are some records which stay in the bag for a longer period, while some records will only be in the bag a few times. But generally it’s a contsant coming and going.

Which hobbies did you have in your childhood?

I was completely into horses and horse riding and I learned piano playing.

Only two records have been released on “Slices Of Life” since you established the label in 2009..(nearly as slow as Lomidhighs releases some might think) are you waiting for the right ones to put out? or is it just a little side-project?

I think nowadays a vinyl only label might be a side project in most of the cases. ;-). Yes, I’m more interested in releasing music that I like personally and that I would play in my dj sets instead of just putting out many records in order to rise my catalogue numbers.

When did you start listening to electronic music?

I was listening to New Wave and EBM as a teenage girl and started to go out to Techno Parties around 1992.

When touring, which city (country) do you enjoy the most?

So far I think Japan is in the top list, but this is also hard to decide since I’ve had great experiences in various cities and countries. Last december I was playing in Montevideo (Uruguay) and Santiago de Chile. These places were also special to me as well.

What is your favourite club to play at?

There are many clubs where I’ve had great nights. I can’t really point out THE one and only.

..and in your opinion, what makes a club a good club?

The combination of a very good sound system, promoter and staff that are into the music and – very important – an open minded and curious audience.

my top 5 Japanese foods;

1. Udon Noodle Soup
2. Seaweed Salad
3. Hotate Nigiri
4. Spicy Tuna
5. Green Tea Cheese Cake
