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.”

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.”

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.”

The art of music has touched the hearts of human beings around the planet for thousands of years. It's a universal language with the ability to express what can't be expressed through words or thought. It can induce strong emotions, alter our states of consciousness and let us experience reality in a different way. It can draw us into the present moment, where just the music exists - unfolding through time, moment by moment. When we let go and merge into the auditory sensations, it takes us on an inner journey. Using this not to escape, but to fully embrace reality as it is, music can help us release tensions and bring balance to our everyday life. 
Especially dance music allows us to unify with the flow of the music. When we express the energy it releases within us, by just giving ourselves to it and following the spontaneous and authentic movements of our bodies, we can experience a state of connection, peace and joy. Doing this collectively, synchronously moving to the same rhythm and sharing this special experience, we feel a connection that resonates within.

With DIT KLINGT JUT we want to express our love for music and manifest the meaning it can have for all of us. We do this by providing a thoughtfully curated space for artists and labels to share their music, organizing events & live-streams and serving as a platform to share ideas on music and the creative process.
