Butch: A DJ’s DJ, A Producer’s Producer, A Electronic Music Chameleon

Some DJs chase trends. Butch sets them. With two decades in electronic music, he moves effortlessly between house, techno, and everything in between. From closing Circoloco at DC-10 to extended sets at Robert Johnson, his sound is always evolving.

Born in Mainz with Turkish roots, Butch hustled his way into the scene, earning multiple Best Producer awards and working with legends like Ricardo Villalobos, Armand van Helden, Cassius, Maceo Plex, and Keinemusik. His releases on Innervisions, Running Back, Defected, Rekids, Diynamic, and Cuttin’ Headz have shaped the underground.

2025 is set to be massive, with his remix of Duck Sauce’s “Falling In Love” already dominating dancefloors and more releases on the way. Butch doesn’t follow rules—he just makes music that moves people.

Caze und Chelioz sind zwei Dj’s aus dem Altenburger Land, welche ihre Leidenschaften zu Techno- und House Musik zunächst durch zahlreiche Clubbesuche in den Stilprägenden Clubs der Region wie zum Beispiel die Distillery, Muna oder Elipamanoke endeckten. Als sie dann aus der Not an Alternativen heraus, zusammen mit den Freunden der KRU (Klang-Rhythmus-Utopia), ihre ersten eigenen Partys organisierten, stellte sich natürlich die Frage: „Wer legt denn jetzt auf?“ – „Machen wir!“ war die kostensparende Antwort und nach einigen Experimenten mit der Technik fühlen sich die beiden mittlerweile hinter den Decks wie zuhause. Apropos zuhause – die musikalische Heimat der beiden ist nach wie vor die KRU, welche auch das Booking der beiden übernimmt. Eben jenes Partykollektiv mit dem im Jahr 2011 alles anfing und mit dem die beiden auch heute noch sehr eng verbunden sind. Musikalisch ging die Reise weiter – man entwickelt sich halt weiter. Ihre Sets bewegen sich zwar immer noch zwischen House und Techno, allerdings organischer - spannungsgeladener als in den Anfangstagen. Wobei vor allem das produzieren eigener Tracks den beiden ein Verständnis dafür gab, wie sie ihre Sets zu einer Einheit werden lassen. Mittlerweile waren sie in zahlreichen Clubs zwischen Leipzig, Dresden und Chemnitz unterwegs. Meistens also Duo Infernale...aber auch Solo. Wie es weitergeht weiß niemand – wenn man die beiden aber besucht, läuft immer Musik oder es wird an eigenen neuen Tracks gearbeitet. Und das wird sich hoffentlich nicht so schnell ändern. 

Riding in with the power to deliver sunshine to world’s rainiest open-air events, Monkey Safari brings rays of light to whatever dance floors they cast their shimmering spell on. 

The past few years saw the brothers swinging to new trees, retiring their previous labels to focus on their new label 'Hommage.' It were the years of transformation for the German producers, developing and tailoring a sound suited perfectly for the unique club nuances while still keeping the core elements of melodic chords and grooves synonymous with the duos productions. 

During this time, Monkey Safari unveiled their remix for Marc Houle’s “Pepper” on Richie Hawtin’s label Minus and their hugely successful “Cranes” and “Walls“ EPs that presented opportunities for Monkey Safari to work with some exciting musicians, such as Wolf + Lamb and Kölsch, techno heavy weights Guy Gerber and Josh Wink, as well as one of dance music’s most iconic producers, Moby. 

Monkey Safari remixed a track for Moby & The Void Pacific Choir, returning the favor after Moby’s successful rework of the duo’s track “Walls” last year. Their next releases continued in the same fashion, featuring remixes from Paco Osuna, Chloé, John Digweed & Nick Muir, UNER, Guy Mantzur, Victor Ruiz and more, while signing tracks from amazing Blond:ish, legendary John Tajada, and others on their Hommage imprint. 

The duo’s efforts in the studio have transcended to their DJ sets with stand out shows at Time Warp and Awakenings Festival. On top of a heavy touring schedule at world renowned clubs and headlining slots at festivals, the duo released their album ‘Odyssey’. Monkey Safari produced the same kind of tracks for this album they were playing as they toured nightclubs and festivals around the world, rather than simply a listening album. 

In 2018 Monkey Safari carefully handpicked remixers they saw as most capable of continuing their vision for the album. The ‘Odyssey Remixes’ featured reworks of the original album tracks by the master himself, Carl Cox, international stars Hernan Cattaneo, Guy J, Musumeci, Tensnake and Reboot, studio geniuses Dubspeeka, Hannes Bieger, ROD, and Phil Moffa, as well as up-and-coming talent Avidus and Trivmph . 

Monkey Safari’s third album comes in perfect time for the summer sunshine of 2019. The duo follow up their last album, ‘Odyssey’, with this warm, inviting collection of music designed to brighten your day and complement the glorious sunny days that bless us during the summer. Sven and Lars learned some valuable lessons from their last long-player, and the new album ‘HI’ comes from a far more relaxed, easy-going place. An organic project that came together quite naturally, their third album sees the duo in high spirits ready to bring a large dose of positive vibes and emotional depth to the party. 

2020 and 2021 sees Monkey Safari moving closer to legendary brands Get Physical and Anjuna Deep, starting with a remix and a multitude of EPs on the labels. Watch out for more news soon! 

The German outfit has been on an incredible run of form with promising developments in all of their endeavors and exciting news still to come. Be it a fresh remix or EP drop, DJ set or party, Monkey Safari will be sure to touch all scopes of dance culture with no signs of deceleration on the horizon. 
Their mandate remains the same, sending sunny vibes to make even the darkest dance floors smile.

PATRICK VANO
(Sonderling Berlin // The Ferry Archive)

Patrick Vano has been deejaying and producing since the early 90's. Until 2009 he was also editor of electronic scene mag "Subculture Neckar/Alb/Bodensee" where he met Vladimir Corbin. Together they started organizing an ongoing series of parties with national and international acts. Before long both were hanging out in the studio working on own tracks. 

However, Patrick did not release any of his productions until Dapayk asked for a remix on his "Decade One" album. Since then Patrick started focusing on his music with new self-confidence. In 2010 he launched several releases and remix productions with Corbin on different labels. 

In 2011 Mo's Ferry released their first vinyl record "Sinner City". Patrick performed a dj set at the I Love Vinyl Open Air and became part of the I Love Vinyl crew. 

In 2012 he played only a few gigs because he was totally focused on his productions and future releases. At the same time he decided to lay off his alter ego "Peddy" once for all. Patrick Vano appeared. 

2013 is going to be Patrick's most ambitious year. "The Other Side Of Me” is his first full length album to be released on Mo's Ferry. And together with long time buddy Vladimir Corbin he'll start his own label "Tonsport Music".
