Session #6 was inspired by one particular morning at Fusion Festival. 

The sun came up at Seebühne, illuminating our faces (not always the best of moments) and then Deer Jade stepped on the stage with a wide grin on her face.

What followed where two hours of stomping bass and bubbling synthesizers, massaging the edges of your brain. The crowd went absolutely bananas and in the middle of it was Deer Jade, bouncing along with us in this perfect moment. 

It is not possible to imitate such a moment (you and I are very much NOT on the Fusion right now!). But I've been wanting to play something equally edgy and playful for quite some time, so here it is. 

And while you're at it, go check out https://soundcloud.com/deerjade. She's an outstanding artist and a must-see in every lineup.

Distelfink Session #6 Crazy Horse

First Track: Tiefe Wasser Berlin - ROY

I can't begin to express how much this meant to me. I poured my heart and soul into this little piece of music.

Thank you @firespaceverein for inviting me and giving me the chance to play the set of my dreams. And - from the bottom of my heart - thank you to all those fantastic dancers and onlookers. You made the night so memorable.

I'm still buzzing with excitement from that incredible festival moment. Two hours of music that were packed with sunshine, joy and energy, and the crowd was just as pumped. Big thanks to all the dancing enthusiasts and everyone who shared their love and smiles; it was almost too much to take in at times.

A special shoutout to the fantastic team at Resonant Collective for letting me be a part of this amazing festival. Can't wait to see you all again next year!

Playing for a room of full of naked dancers has been one of the most challenging but also most rewarding experiences of my musical life.

I believe that it’s when you’re fully exposed, it’s when you want to feel both warm and embraced, both beautiful and strong. 

The desire to provide these emotions through my music has shaped my personal sound like nothing else.

Thank you from the entire team of “Bei Nackt & Nebel” for your participation in this most special of events, for your trust and your energy. It truly meant the world to us 🙏

Did this actually happen?

Kit Kat Club turns 30 and I'm allowed to do whatever dafuq I want during main time on the decks of Prisma Bar. This was every DJs dream and I am so thankful that I could my vision of music into a night like this. 

What to expect? Waaaay to many vocals, pounding bass and sudden turns into disco. I wouldn't change a thing about it :)

Is this something new? Something old? IDK, you be the judge. Anyway, it has been missing from Berlin for a loooong time. We need more trumpets. And percussion. And soooo much more melodies :)

Anybody got the contact details of whoever does the bookings for Sisyphos' Strand?

Thank you

DISTELFINK @ SPAETSCHICHT.BERLIN - MAY 2024

Yes, that’s our daughter laughing at the very beginning of this set. It’s a lovely memory shared by my wife and me, and I wanted to surprise her. We got married just the day before, right next to FUSION; it was basically our honeymoon. The look on her face made me fall in love with her all over again.

I deeply believe that DJing must be personal. The listener wants to engage with the essence of the artist, allowing a flow of energy that transcends mere beats and musical taste.

Well, this is my musical heartbeat, this is me. Some of these songs and ideas have accompanied me for years, listened to over and over, waiting for the right moment to be played. I would’ve cried my eyes out if I hadn’t been so occupied with mixing.

I am deeply grateful to @firespaceverein, who invited me again to play at their beautiful Firespace.

Thank you to @"Tiefe Wasser Berlin" for providing this beautiful edit of a song right at the beginning.

And lastly, thank you to my wife, my family, and my friends who have supported me all these years and never stopped believing in me. You are truly the best.

DISTELFINK @ FUSION FIRESPACE 2024

(My old DJing mentor would say this has far too many vocals. But what does he know?)

Imagine a lofty room, a chandelier hanging above, bathed in red light, gold accents everywhere. Now picture a crowd of bare-skinned dancers, moving ecstatically, eyes closed, arms swaying in the air. Yes, it was exactly like that.

I’ve always believed that music should be both captivating and sensual—erotic, even. Especially when you’re dancing with nothing but your bare skin.

A huge thank you to @letusbeskin for inviting me to play at such a stunning venue with such an incredible crowd. It was, without a doubt, one of the best gigs of the year.
