Diynamic label artist David August puts a spin on Kollektiv Turmstrasse's "Last Day," a lovely piece of tech-house released back in 2009. His revision sees a deeper, warm, and meditative track with delicious chords and consuming basslines—-all resulting in an intoxicating audio-watering hole that you'll never want to leave. Unless perhaps for a refill.

Ikarushka - YaGulala

A big shout out to Terminal M novice Noir who delivers two tracks for Monika Kruse's imprint which can't be more different. 'Perservere' features HRRSN on the mic and is a straight festival techno banger while 'Lost & Broken' with singer Hendrik Burkhard (known for his tracks with Florian Kruse) might be the ideal sunrise sound. In which mood are you?

INTERVIEW
1. How would you describe your sound?

“Driving is probably the most accurate word for my music. I love music that has a good drive in it and without thinking about it I almost always seem to produce things that has a deep drive in it.”

2. Most exciting club moment?

“I have many really exciting moments, but DGTL Amsterdam in 2014 was something special!”

3. How did you learn producing?

“I learned producing 10-12 years ago, while I was attending a music school, where I played guitar in a rock band. The electronic music production grabbed my attention the first time a saw it and a few months later I bought a small studio setup having no knowledge at all on how to produce. I am a self-taught producer and it was not an easy journey for me - but no one ever said it would be.”

4. Favorite track at the moment?

“Tough one! Check number 2 and the last track in my podcast.”

5. DAW?

“Ableton 4 life.”

6. What is your trademark?

“Never sticking to the plan. I do not think I have a trademark other than I am always trying to re-new my sound. I get inspired to try out new sounds all the time, and I guess that makes my style diverse somehow.”

7. Next release?

“My next release is on my own label, Blindfold Recordings. It is a melodic piece with two originals and an Oliver Schories Remix. Plus I got an EP coming on legendary Global Underground.”

8. What keeps you going?

“My love for the music. This business is tough and after only a few years I could feel the pressure when I was touring. Too little sleep, a lot of pressure from promotors, fans etc. it makes your head spin around like crazy. Sometimes when I came back home after maybe 2-3 gigs I would be so much out of balance that you would not even believe it. I have said to myself a lot of times that it is time to leave the DJ life, but after only a few days I am dying to go out again. It is a curse. So the love for the music and passion for the people who are like-minded is what keeps me going.”

9. Where would you love to play live?

“I would love to play at Awakenings at some point - life goals and everything.

10. What makes you laugh?

“Will Ferrell in Step-brothers and Anchorman. Simple as that, and they never fail.”

INTERVIEW
1. Most exciting club moment?

“It was last February 26th (2016) at Bauhaus Party, the party where I am ‘resident’ in my city Bergamo. I played just before Marco Resmann. He was playing fantastically while, suddenly, almost in the end of his set, he turned his head and asked me: ‘You play with me?’ I was like petrified. I went next to him and we did a little b2b! That night he gave me an important lesson of humility. He is a great person.”

2. How did you learn producing?

“I am totally self-taught. At the beginning I simply watched some tutorials, then I started to experiment and play with very basic sounds. When I bought my first monitors everything changed. I focused on mixing, synthesizing and sampling. Collaborating with other producers was very constructive too: You learn a lot from others and vice versa.”

3. Favorite track at the moment/all time?

“Right now, my favorite track was recently released by Einmusika. It is ‘Jonas Saalbach - Ancient Lake feat. Paul Klatt (Sébastien Léger Remix)’. Fresh, dreamy and sexy.
The best track of all time? I would say ‘Nathan Fake - The Sky Was Pink (James Holden remix)’. And I do not need to explain why. Just try to listen to it.”

4. Dream collab?

“Paris Hilton.
Just joking, definitely Rodriguez Jr.”

5. Favorite DJ Setup?

“It depends. When I DJ I usually use a pair of Pioneer 2000 and a Allen & Heat x-one 92. But this is not my only setup. In fact, this year I have started an experiment based on live music. The project is called ‘Knobs Bergamo’ - check the page on FB. I founded it together with other three artists. Our purpose is to create a platform for live electronic music education and a wide network. We try to bring together producers and musicians of every kind in order to meet, collaborate and jam together organizing public shows. It is unbelievable how useful and magic the moment of improvisation is. By the way, my setup in this case is totally different and it is also the same setup I use in my studio: I use a Launchpad to record clips, a Korg Nanokontrol where I mapped an Ableton sampler creating a sort of ‘analog-feeling’ digital synthesizer, an Akai LPD8 which I use for playing and choosing drums, and finally an Elektron Analog 4 to create synths, basses, accents, arpeggios or atmos on the fly.”

6. What keeps you going?

“1) My family: They never interfered between me and my music.
2) The neighbors: They have always been patients with me and it is not a simple thing. They are probably ‘saints’.
3) My friends: They keep me going always with my head straight.
4) All the new musicians I meet: They all create a musical interactions and inspiration starts to grow.”

7. You in 10 years?

“I do not imagine myself tomorrow, how can I imagine me in 10 years? By the way I wish to own a label and play around the world. I know it is a long long way though but I deeply enjoy what I am doing. It is my life.”

8. What do you listen to besides electronic music?

“Many things. When I want to be quiet, i.e. most of the time, I usually listen to singer-songwriters, like Ben Harper, Bob Marley or Jack Johnson.”

9. What distinguishes you and your music from other artists?

“I try to be eclectic and to fill my tracks with emotions. Because of this, probably in the future all my tracks will speak of nice memories. Thus, while I am listening to one track of mine, I somehow live again a precise period of my life. Producing is for me a way to communicate my feelings.”

10. How would you describe your sound?

“Alive.”

11. Who will considerably give direction to the scene soon?

“I do not know who, but I know what! The new technological progress will also give a new direction. Only who innovates himself will ride the wave.”

INTERVIEW

1. How would you describe your sound?
“It’s obviously been through a lot of changes over the years but it’s always been groove and bassline oriented and I’ve always tried hard to find (and create) cool and original drum and percussion sounds.”

“Besides electronic music I listen to a lot of rock music.

I’m also a big hip hop fan - mainly old school hip hop but also some current stuff like J Cole and Kendrick Lamar.”

9. What is your trademark?
“I use a lot of my own vocals in my tracks - even if it’s just a couple of words with a lot of effects, it gives my sound a personal and unique touch.”

10. What makes you laugh?
“Peep Show, Reeves and Mortimer, the Mighty Boosh, Brass Eye, Blackadder, Bill Maher, Russell Brand, Will Ferrell…”

INTERVIEW

1. How would you describe your sound?
“Deep, dark, melancholic, but diversified too. “I don´t specify my music, I simply play and produce what I love” – is my slogan which describes my doings best.”
 
2. How did you learn producing?
“At home with a friend teaching me Impulse Tracker (MS-DOS based). I was going to a music school since I was a kid, so music was no stranger to me when I started producing my own stuff in 1999. For the deeper knowledge I read lots of books and tried new things every day. Producing was my passion from the first day.”
 
3. Favorite track at the moment/all time?
“At-the-moment-favs change every week. This week it´s: BONDI – “Deep Shards”; All time: Patrick Chardronnet – “Eve By Day”.”
 
4. Dream collab?
“I´m not a dreamer at all. Maybe you can say I´m living my dream by working with talented people every day. This year I started two exciting collabs with Rafael Cerato and Several Definitions. More to come soon.”

5. Favorite DJ Setup?
“2x CDJ + 1x DJM.”

6. What keeps you going?
“I love music in any way. Producing, playing, listening, talking about music. It´s all about music in my life and always will be. Besides that I´m proud to be a fulltime musician since 4 years now. Quitting my daily job was one of the best decisions ever in my life.”

7. What makes you laugh?
“Black humor.”
 
8. You in 10 years?
“46 years old and still totally mad about producing and DJing.”
 
9. What do you listen to besides electronic music?
“Not so much to be honest. Some pop music maybe, at the moment I´m a big Bilderbuch fan.”

10. Most exciting club moment?
“I had a lot. But I don´t have a special one in my mind right now. I learned that most of these exciting moments happen when you expect nothing and get a blast later. I love to be surprised by that.”
 
11. DAW?
“Propellerheads Reason since exactly 15 years now.”
 
12. Where would you love to play live?
“I´ve been playing in most parts of Europe yet so sure I´m excited to see other parts of the planet aswell. No special wishes, just a fantastic mood, a great sound system, a sunset, cool drinks and nice people all over. Okay. These are special wishes :-)”
 
13. What do you think about DIT KLINGT JUT?
“Professional appearance, nice concept. Berlin addicted. Keep going, guys!”
 
14. What makes dance music so special to you?
“We have to make a difference here I think: Electronic dance music (EDM) is about making money, celebrating stupid drops, throwing cakes and so on. The scene we are in is much deeper. Love, music, tolerance and respect first. That´s very important for me. Besides that I love House and Techno since the early 1990s.”

15. Next release?
“Marc DePulse & Several Definitions – “Lions / Birds” (Selador),
Rafael Cerato & Marc DePulse – “Agora” (JEAHMON!)
... and of course I´m working hard on my second artist album.”
 
16. What you can’t stand?
“People who don´t respect each other. Haughtiness, intolerance, violence, racism.”

INTERVIEW

1. How would you describe your sound?
“Melodic Tech-House, sweet melodies paired with groove and love in detail, mostly made for the dancefloor.”

2. How did you learn producing?
Marcel: “Learning by doing. I bought a software at the age of 14, named ‘Techno Maker’ (laugh), to make first steps in the field of producing. To get an impression of how it works, to do a track. It wasn‘t as bad as it sounds. Experimenting and playing around is always a got method to learn and understand how things work. But before doing first complete tracks I was only djing. Later then I used Steinberg‘s ‘Nuendo’ and ‘Cubase’.”
Thomas: “After some years of djing I experimented with a ‘Yamaha RM1X’ Groovebox and a sampler from ‘BOSS’ in 1999. Later Software based producing.”

3. Favorite track at the moment/all time?
Marcel: “Difficult, because there are many good tracks out there, but one of my favorite tracks at the moment is ‘Stereocalypse - Arboria’; one of my alltime favorites: ‘Black Van - Inside (Oliver Remix)’.”
Thomas: “At the moment ‘Beyond’ by Frank Serin (Prosper Rek Remix), alltime favorite: ‘In The Night’ by Sivesgaard.”

4. Dream collab?
Marcel: ”Rodriguez Jr.”
Thomas: “Me myself and I in ten years.”

5. What keeps you going?
Marcel: “Joy of life, love for the music, head full of ideas.”
Thomas: “Family, music, sleep.”

6. What makes you laugh?
Marcel: “My son, dry sense of humour.”
Thomas: “An Irishman and an Englishman walk into a bakery. The Englishman steals 3 buns and puts them into his pockets and leaves. He says to the Irishman: ‘That took great skill and guile to steal those buns. The owner didn't even see me.’ The Irishman replied: ‘That's just simple thievery, I'll show you how to do it the honest way and get the same results.’ The Irishman then proceeded to call out the owner of the bakery and says: ‘Sir, I want to show you a magic trick.’ The owner was intrigued so he came over to see the magic trick. The Irishman asked him for a bun and then he proceeded to eat it. He asked 2 more times and after eating them again the owner says: ‘Okay my friend, where's the magic trick?’ The Irishman then said: ‘Look in the Englishman's Pockets.’“

7. What do you listen to besides electronic music?
Marcel: “80s Stuff, Soul, Funk, German Hip Hop, Pop music.”
Thomas: “80s, Oldies, Soul.”

8. What distinguishes you and your music from other artists?
“People say, we have a unique feature in our music, a unique sound. That‘s important today, to make something different to others, as a huge amount of music is published everyday.”

9. Most exciting club moment?
“Sisyphos Berlin, October 2015, playing the wintergarden, we started with the first tune, people poured in and celebrated with us as no one was watching, without any break and totally lost in music.”

10. Who will considerably give direction to the scene soon?
“Acts like ‘Township Rebellion’ and ‘Hidden Empire’ for example. High Quality productions, mostly peaktime tracks with a unique style and well done arrangements.”

11. DAW?
“Cubase”

12. Where would you love to play live?
“Kazantip, Ibiza”

13. What do you think about DIT KLINGT JUT?
“Nice guys. Great idea of featuring artists, without making a difference regarding their fame. Only focused on their music and individual sound.”

14. What makes dance music so special to you?
“Thousands of memories and good moments - a possibility to give emotions and feelings a face.”

15. Next release?
“‘SPIKE THE PUNCH EP’ on Parquet Recordings out on the 12th of june incl. Remixes by ‘Hidden Empire’ and ‘Rauschhaus’.”

16. What you can’t stand?
Marcel: “Coffee”
Thomas: “Sandwiches”
