Happy new year everyone! I had the immense pleasure of playing this 2.5 hour set at 2 am after New Years Eve at Rhythm & Alps festival 2023 in Aotearoa New Zealand, closing the lush Playhouse tent. 

The Playhouse is part of the Yumm Zone, offering couches, cushions, carpet, warm heaters, free hot chai tea and a welcoming vibe for everyone to slow down and feel at ease.

Thanks everyone from the crew for making me feel at home, and the crowd that contributed to the lovely energy in the tent.

Enjoy the journey, may it guide you into the energy of 2024.

Discovering the stories behind every note. Let’s share the joy of music together on this journey.

German-born David Juno discovered electronic music in Jena before moving to New Zealand. Melody and organic sounds are at the core of the music he is passionate about, through different tempos and moods within the 4/4 realm of house and downtempo. David Juno concocts harmonious brews that enthrall listeners at large and small gatherings; clandestine woodland rendezvous; thundering, pitch-black basement blowouts, light-speed gigs aboard gleaming spaceships, and even interdimensional celestial soirées. He's a regular at XCHC and core member of Mary Hush. David Juno is a sonic conduit - his sets create atmospheric journeys that connect audiences through sonic storytelling, ranging from dark, spacious soundscapes to bright, energetic peaks that capture the full spectrum of human emotion and experience - with all the nuances in between.

It’s Saturday night, you hang around in the club and you want to listen to your favourite clubtracks. But the booked dj has other plans and navigates the dancers through his personal taste, without accounting for the wishes of his audience. What can you do?

Do it yourself, of course. And this is exactly what Cem Corlu (35) alias DJ Cem did, as he found himself in situation like this many years ago.

Meanwhile the years passed by and Cem belongs to the crème de la crème of Swiss clubbing for a long time now. This is documented by the long list of clubs, that already have booked him: Supermarket, Oxa, Club Q, Kaufleuten, Mascotte, Du Théâtre, Liquid, Atlantis, Bar Rouge and Orient are just a few of the Swiss locations he has played at. He has also played at main events like the Street Parade in Zurich (since 1998), Mykonos-Events, Haustanz and Pure Passion of course.

Cem is a renowned dj now, not only in Switzerland: He played at Astra (Mykonos, Greece), Cavo Paradiso (Mykonos, Greece) and Paranga Beach Club (Mykonos, Greece). He stood at the turntables of the M1 and Barcode in Stuttgart (Germany) and has played in countries like Romania, Poland or Turkey.

Cems passion for housemusic doesn’t stop at djing: The track „You“ (2007), produced with Swiss vocalist Tanja Dankner, has made it on compilations released by Pacha Records worldwide and has been sold countless times. “So Beautiful”, produced in the year 2009, was a stunning success. Cems tracks are played by top shots like Pete Tong (Radio BBC One) or Sarah Main (Pacha Ibiza-resident). This year “Just Glow”, a cooperation with DJ Rocco Nocera under the name Blackbird will hit the shops. 

The house-dj for with lots of passion for his profession gets his creative ideas from the exhaustless fund of soul-, jazz- and rhythm’n’blues-music. Dj Cem has a affectation for the productions of Kerri Chandler, Danny Tenaglia, Brian Tappert or MAW. But also the younger generation with its exponents Jimpster, Rocco, Dennis Ferrer influence him and his music. But also the outstanding international label NAKED MUSIC with it’s impressive productions are accompany DJ Cems carreer.

Meanwhile DJ Cem ist a renowned dj and producer, that inspires newcomers by himself.

DJ Cem has got formidable skills and tons of charisma and the knowledge, that you only stay a good dj, if you have a close look at all the different styles and possible influences.

DJ Cem is part of Swiss clubbing, as Swiss clubbing is a part of him.
