MINI-INTERVIEW

How did you get into DJing?
Everything started when I was like 10 years old and we had some soccer tournaments in the sports-hall in my little village where I raised. They needed someone who plays the music when a goal happens or the last minute begins. So, I had my pen drive always ready and prepared with a folder structure and stuff like that. Later then, when we did some parties, I always brought some self-compiled CD’s, so that we had some good music in a nice order. All in all, I always collected and sorted music, so it just felt natural to step behind the decks. 

What do you want to express with your music?
Always depends on the mood. Since I’m playing many genres, I think it’s important to read the crowd and the ambience to play the right music. But I want it to get emotions out of the people, if its pure ecstasy or get people crying. 

Sync on or off?
I’m an engineer (soon probably ;P), so I always like and use every technological help or innovation. There are moments of fast mixing or where you bring in a song within a break without kicks or beats. So you can not really beatmatch. Those are moments, where sync is useful and makes it better. But beatmatching is a crucial skill as DJ.

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.
