In the first week of September we’re heading to the beautiful scenery of Tisno, Croatia, to celebrate the first edition of Dekmantel Selectors. In the run up to the festival, we’ve launched a new temporary podcast-series where we invite ten of our selectors from the festival to dig deep in their unique collections. The idea behind the mix is to create a Time Document, focusing on a specific period of time with the artist being free in choosing this period. This period could in fact entail anything: a certain decennia, the time he or she fell in love, The Cold War, November ’92 – March ’93, or the rise of Nigerian music. It’s up to the Selectors to choose and tell us a story based on their music collection.

Next up in our Selector Podcast-series is John Scheffer alias Intergalactic Gary, who's a 30-year veteran of the DJ craft. Scheffer has started his career in The Hague (whilst becoming a resident at the city's first house club, La DS), and is now considered a quiet master of the DJ arts, using his decades of experience behind the decks to craft deep and immersive sets steeped in atmosphere and confidently shift between musical genres and eras with an assured touch.

In anticipation of the festival, Scheffer recorded this special Selectors Time Document-podcast, based on what he defines as ‘timeless music'. "The idea behind this mix was to combine different genres from different time periods. Some tracks aren’t released yet, others have been laying on the shelves for years, waiting to finally get played. In my opinion, every track that’s used in this mix is timeless."

Selectors Podcast 002 - Intergalactic Gary

I'm a little bit acid house, and she's a little bit dub techno.
