Bio:

Chris comes from a small industrial city nearby Frankfurt, where he spent his weekends working long shifts at the town’s iron factory. He moved to Berlin in early 2017 and quickly fell in love with the unique vibe of the city’s techno clubs. The music, community of local DJs, and electric energy he felt while dancing inspired him to buy a controller and learn to mix — he wanted to see how it felt to be the one behind the decks leading the crowd. 

Within the next few months, he had his first gigs and co-founded Beschaeftigungstherapie with his friend Justus. After experimenting with different musical styles of progressive house and melodic techno, he found his home in dark, minimal techno. Over the past couple of years, he and his parties have become a regular act in Berlin’s finest underground clubs.
In addition to clubs such as the Mensch Maier, the Birgit and beer and the legendary bay, he played numerous other Berlin clubs and underground locations in and around Berlin.
