Testing the little soundbike installation for the Critical Mass Berlin in July 2023 - in an otherwise very quiet forest night.

Kleiner Mueggelberg

This is the last of three sets played on the beach during a week at Moliets, September 2023.
And this was the most incredible experience. A thunderstorm was raging over the ocean and after a little over one and a half hours it started raining on and off a bit on our beach - which was actually somewhat pleasant with still 23° at 1AM.
Two months ago I would not have thought I could play this kind of music for almost three hours, but somehow I felt more flow than ever playing this set which I'm very happy with. I hope you'll enjoy it too 😊.

Only around 2AM it got so wet that the iPad started to register ghost touches and most people had already left which was when I packed up as well.

Moliets Plage 2023

I recorded this in July when I came across these ruins of a bunker on my way back from the beach.
It is such a great location for a rave that I just had to do an impromptu set there (Well, first set up my bike, this is not how I went to the beach 😄). What do you think about the choice of tracks - do they fit the location?

Unfortunately condos and stuff are getting built in the vicinity - so I guess the location doesn't work (anymore) for a bigger sound system...

(This was the second set I recorded since getting back into DJing again, just for anyone interested in my learning curve 😉)

Bunkeri, Poland

Here is the set I played in Logroño on San Mateo, Saturday evening.
I've put up my small travelling gear in a side street just across Calle del Laurel and started playing.

People seemed to enjoy it - someone even so much they stayed while their friends went to party somewhere else - I hope some of you will enjoy it as much 😊. It's uncommon sounds for that area of Spain and many People were not surprised I'm from Hamburg 😄.
San Mateo in Logroño is great, even the police was chill enough to let me do it. I guess that's the advantage of the smaller setup. 😅

San Mateo Logroño (NSSpain 2023)

Sines in Portugal has an extensive Harbor area. And there is a big spot in the middle where there is nothing except a nice view on the ocean and the city - and the occasional other camper stopping there for a night or for cooking.
This finally gave me the motivation I needed to do a mix again. With lots of new experiences from a small downtempo festival near Barcelona to process, it for sure needed to be something slower. I hope you'll like it.

Down In Sines Harbor

This is my opening set from Saturday on NYE Weekend on the Bamboo (Or was it called Kiosk? 🤷‍♂️) Stage.

I finally got to play on an actual stage with a decent sized sound system! And that it was outdoors made it even better. :-)

Thank you, FridayHappiness, for giving me this opportunity to play on something bigger than my own soundbike speakers 😅.

(Full disclosure: Towards the end of my playtime I was asked to increase the tempo to 120bpm for a handover. Since that does not make sense on Soundcloud imho, I re-recorded that last part later)

NYE Weekend 2023 @FridayHappiness (Portugal)

I got myself a set of POI and wanted to have something with a slow and steady beat for practicing. If you want it slightly faster, check out this one:
https://soundcloud.com/this-is-cornelius/85bpm-poi-practice-mix-cornelius-2024?si=090c5a8a4d844651bf88eda8c9177a5e&utm_source=clipboard&utm_medium=text&utm_campaign=social_sharing

I found only a few mixes in this area on SC, so maybe having another one is useful for somebody else too.

Or maybe someone likes it because of the somewhat wild selection:
The tracks are spanning more than four decades and at least that many genres (Ach Genres, das sind doch bürgerliche Kategorien...). This made it much different to what I'm currently used to mix, but I guess old muscle memory kicked in and I quite like the result. And since it's for my own practicing I'll probably listen to this myself a lot... 🤹

80bpm POI practice mix

My creation for the melodics beatmaker bootcamp. This is not what I expected a month ago. I just wanted to make an edit of an existing track.
But so much good stuff coming from the other participants got me to do a complete track of my own - while travelling through Spain in a Van...

Lots of inspiration taken from @joe-carl and @rampue, thank you very much. ❤️

Something Borrowed

This mix I wanted to do for a while now but then got sidetracked with slower stuff 😅.

It was cold up at about 1000m in the Black Forest, so I huddled up inside my van - remote enough so I can be as loud as I wanted inside it. It was great, but next time I can hopefully do this outside again because honestly I think this kind of music would be best experienced in a wide space with open skies (And killer lights, ofc). 🪐

Black Forest

Another mix for POI practice, a tad faster than the other one here:

This time it's more recent tracks with only very few older ones.

Recorded in a forest in Estonia at sub-zero temperatures ❄️

85bpm POI practice mix

This is a vocal, so something's in the track. It doesn't really matter what it says or what it has..... 08/15

Cornelius @ Epikur Festival

It's the afterhour of me traveling for over 500 days.

Totally inspired by the amazing experience of @iris_anahata at Bucht der Träumer* 2024: https://soundcloud.com/iris_anahata/saga-closing-bucht-der-traumer-2024

 - thank you so much for your incredible work 🙏

Drifting Home

I feel immensely grateful for the honor of closing the Organic Garden Event at Sudhaus in Basel after the incredible Jonas Fasching. This meant quite a few first times for me - but everyone was so welcoming and supportive that at some point during Jonas' set my nervousness was gone. ☺️

I hope this set is as enjoyable here as it was live! And there was no time to waste. Because of the change to summer time that night I barely had an hour...
Big hugs to the Organic Garden Crew, your trust and all the lovely People staying till the end. It means a lot to me. 💝

Organic Garden Closing

Oh my, this is scary. There are so many mistakes in this set, like right away on the first transition there is an effect that isn't supposed to be there on the incoming track... but thanks to some encouragement by the best people, here it is anyway, unedited, raw... 🙀

Thank you Konfusius for making this intimate gathering happen again. It was such a pleasure to be there. :-)
Thank you to my friends making sure they're there for my set. And thank you to all the dancers finding their way into the cellar between 6 and 8 in the morning, despite the much needed sunshine outside. This meant a lot to me.
Finally, a big thank you to all the incredible producers out there. Without you, this wouldn't be possible.

Cornelius @ St. Konfusius Festival 2025

Next:
1.-3.8. • create happiness - Fest
7.-10.8. • Epikur Festival (CH)
24.8. • TurTur, Hamburg

Usually Downtempo to Midtempo. Some call it Ketapop, Schneckno, Organic House, Indie Dance, Melodic Techno & whatnot. I like to venture wherever the flow takes us, not stopping at alleged genre limits but instead taking all the groovy twists and turns the journey has in store for us today.

Sometimes dreamy & flowing, sometimes bouncy & playful, sometimes dark & driving - but always for heart, stomach and feet for sure.
