For this mix I dug into my collection and tried to include some laid back tracks I love and usually don’t get to play when djing (i.e. the opening track by Shigeto. Absolutely in love with the whole album for many years) and combined them with some recently discovered disco & house (i.e. plz check out John Manhard), a pinch of indie sounds and other things I (re)discovered on my way through my record collection and felt right at the moment. 

One of the first things I remember when thinking about me and music is very little me listening to Elvis Presley in front of my parents hifi system in the living room for hours. With short excursions into hip hop I later got hooked to Punkrock & Indie music, playing bass guitar in bands for several years. I have always been most attracted to the rhythm section and funky stuff and as a former bass player basically everything with a groovy bassline still gets me going.

After moving to Mannheim more than 10 years I discovered clubbing, got more and more into electronic music and eventually started djing mainly (but not only) disco and house music, which has become an addiction to which I devote as much time as possible. 

I hope you enjoy the mix and it accompanies you smoothly into the new year. Thank you for listening.
