After such a long time, it's a pleasure to be able to upload a recording again!

So... here's my contribution to last weekend's Høj Luft here in Copenhagen. Unfortunately the mood was so good, that cops got jealous and decided to shut the music down during my set, hence the pretty sharp ending. To smoothen it out a little, I added a closing track in the studio. It wasn't played at the event, but it's a new release from @monkymanmusic , whose lyrics fit very well with my mood and with the music being shut down and all.

A huge thanks goes to MegaMads, to his 41 years and to all the gorgeous people that once again made this city a little more twisted in that special, lovely way: you had been missed.

See you soon again.

After one and half years of closed clubs, last weekend marked the removal of restrictions and the reopening of nightlife here in Denmark.

I had the pleasure of being part of such an important moment for Danish club culture by playing at Culture Box Friday night. An insane energy swept the dancefloor, and I will for sure remember those hours as a very clear before-and-after line in this crazy new world of ours.

So here's a toast: may clubs and their culture live long and keep open for many generations of dancers to come - we missed you.

This is the recording of my set from Red Box between 2-4 AM - if you enjoy what you hear, share it onwards <3

Clubs are back! Reopening night at Culture Box 3/9

Played Friday night at the Theatre floor between 2-4. 

Thanks for a beautiful night!

Sofacast 68 | Tadoh

On the day of the winter solstice, Hekske (the little witch) and Falke (the 10-year old witch apprentice) suddenly felt the urge to fly. They took off from a clearing and flew in northeastern direction. They knew they would reach their destination just by following their inner compass.
After a cold and windy flight over the plains of Schleswig-Holstein and the choppy waters of the Baltic Sea, the witches saw the white chalk cliffs of the island Møn in the distance. The girls sensed they had reached their destination and touched down on top of the steep cliffs at the edge of a forest, where they met 6 boys. This was quite unusual as witches basically never mingle with humans. The boys appeared to be 6 brothers, with ages ranging from 10 (Falke’s age) to 19 (Hekske’s age). They entered the forest where a narrow path led them to a wooden cabin in a hidden glade, where an old man was living. He introduced himself as Thorbjørn and explained he was about to light the traditional midvinter-bål (midwinter bonfire). Hekske (as always without saying a single word) generated a little spark with a graceful hand movement. The glowing spark floated lazily in the air until it set the pile of firewood ablaze. Thorbjørn and the 6 boys looked in awe at this little miracle, and realized that Hekske and Falke were no ordinary girls.
They all sat down in a circle around the crackling fire and felt the pleasant heat. Thorbjørn sang a mysterious old Norse song. Then he told his big secret. This was the very first time he revealed that he was actually a bersærker, who had stayed in hibernation mode for over 1000 years. He told many tales, about his long training to become the most fearsome warrior of the Vikings : the berserker. But after the Battle of Brunanburh (where he fought for king Æthelstan) he threw his double-sided axe into the North Sea while returning home from Albion, and settled down on the island of Møn to live a peaceful life in the middle of this forest, where he became a vegan and never even killed a mosquito. He never ever told anyone about his dark past as a berserker until tonight, the endless midwinternight. Then Thorbjørn slowly stood up and went to his wooden cabin. A few minutes later, he came out of his hut, only wearing a loincloth and a fur pelt of a large animal as a cape. Hekske’s heart skipped a beat when she realized it was a bear’s skin. It was a fearsome sight. Thorbjørn explained this was his uniform which he wore on the battlefield. Before each battle, the berserkers always danced all night around a bonfire until they reached the ‘bersærkergang’, the berserker’s rage during which they lost the fear of death and were ready to fight against a complete army. Thorbjørn told it was a very bad kind of energy.
At that moment Falke had a vision. She actually saw the beauty of this raw energy, or at least a somewhat less powerful version of this energy. And as she had already tamed a dragon, she would surely be capable to handle a berserker, so that he would just get energized for life without reaching the full-blown ‘bersærkergang’. The 6 boys were very eager to don the bear’s skin and perform the berserker’s dance. Falke pointed at Tore, the oldest of the 6 brothers. He disappeared for a while in the log cabin, and came back only wearing a loin cloth and having very cold in the chilling wind. Thorbjørn took off his bear skin and gave it to Tore, who donned it over his head. All of a sudden, Tore didn’t feel the cold anymore. Now he was ready to dance his way to the ‘bersærkergang’ …

Witchtape #139 | Guest Wizz : tadoh

Please welcome @tadoh for a round of lovely, deep dancemusic. The fine young gentleman has been an active part of the Copenhagen slowhouse scene with partys like For Haus' Sake or Folkets Haus and is also part of the @mystic-tales-berlin family. In his mix he features artists like @pullichomba , @ouhana & @danielhokum, @kon-faber, @sydkasd or @joe-carl. We are really happy to have him around!

Bummbumm #26: tadoh (For Haus' Sake / Mystic Tales)

Father of two, fun at partys and ferocious - three f’s that introduce our this weeks guest Tadoh perfectly. ❤️ Hailing from the vibrant music scene of Copenhagen, Denmark, he found in the collective "Mystic Tales" a Berlin based family. Strolling through the days and nights of electronic parties with them, Tadoh has been crafting a unique sound that blends melodic down- and midtempo beats with a healthy dose of bounce and punch. Join us for the latest episode of Traumcasts with ferociousness and @tadoh.

3 questions to Tadoh:

 🍀 1. what do you like about the genre u usually play in your sets?
I love the effect it has on me: I enter a special, almost meditative place when playing what I play. And while I take it very seriously, it puts me in a really playful mood at the same time 😀  In general I like it when there is enough space between the beats to feel the music hit you all sort of places, and when you lose the connection with time passing by and the drive keeps you low on your knees for hours on end. 
 
🍀 2. What's the strangest or most unusual talent you have?
I can fold my tongue in unusual ways.  
 
🍀 3. Do you have any special plans for 2023?
One thing that I am sure will feel special is the first Mystic Creatures Festival in September. Since I live in Copenhagen, joining Mystic Tales last summer has finally given me a Berlin-based musical family, and one that I can see myself in as well, both musically and at a human level. I think it will feel like a chosen family gathering. And it's on an island! In a lake! 🤯

Tadoh - Traumcast Nr. 38

💿 Nikotin im Niemandsland 💿

 ✍️ Das Rauchen von Tabakwaren bringt eine ganze Reihe von gesundheitlichen Nachteilen mit sich. Hingegen halten sich die Vorteile in überschaubaren Grenzen. Trotzdem wird in Deutschland extrem viel geraucht. Kann das nur an der stark süchtigmachenden Wirkung des Nikotins liegen? Teilweise bestimmt, jedoch sollte der zwischenmenschliche Benefit nicht unterschätzt werden. Rauchen ist ein geselliger, identitäts- und gemeinschaftsstiftender Vorgang. Eine gemeinsam gerauchte Zigarette verbindet und bleibt dennoch zwanglos. Der speziell riechende Glimmstängel ist eine ambivalente Angelegenheit. Unstrittig sind die langfristigen Nachteile für die menschliche Physis und Psyche. Wie bei so vielem empfiehlt es sich auch hier, bewusst zu konsumieren.

🎵 Die heutige Ausgabe des KataHaifisch Podcasts wurde von tadoh gestaltet und gemixt. Dieses knapp anderthalbstündige Set ist im wahrsten Sinne des Wortes eine tiefgründige Angelegenheit. Mystische Flächensounds treffen auf repetitive Shots und Lead-Synths, während angenehm treibende Rhythmuselemente das gesamte Frequenzspektakel umrahmen. Diese Kreation ist genau der richtige Sound für einen Moment der Entspannung und Besinnung. Ob in Gesellschaft von Freunden oder für sich alleine. Der Beginn des Wochenendes könnte nicht schöner sein. 

Wir möchten uns herzlich bedanken und senden sonnige Grüße 🖤

Mystic Creatures Festival: what a stunning way to end summer!

Amazing vibe, lovely crowd, top-notch music and a breathtaking location: definitely one to remember!
Here's my set from the Mystic Ground stage on Sunday from 13-14.30. The merciless heat boiled most of the dancers, myself and one CDJ during my set - but the despite the temperature and the technical issues it was really a fun one.

Thanks to the Mystic crew for creating something so unique and for inviting me to play, thanks to my super supportive friends from Copenhagen and Milan and to the other dancers that defied the scorching sun, and thanks to everyone who made this weekend so special.

Hope you'll enjoy the recording and see you soon, somewhere <3

tadoh @ Mystic Creatures Festival 2023 - summer's end

Last weekend I had the pleasure to join the celebrations for Rebellion der Träumer's 10 years birthday at Renate in Berlin.

This was nothing short of a spectacular weekend - with lovely people and amazing music for hours on end. Thanks to the packed, smiling and supportive dancefloor the three hours I was behind decks flew by (and I was super happy to get an extra hour on top of my original two!).

Loving high fives go to the friends in front row and to all the dancers, and a special thanks to those who went out of their way to give a word of appreciation after my set, both at Renate and after the event: I usually get super shy when it happens, but it means a lot.

A huge thanks to Renate for hosting the shenanigans and to the Rebellion gang for the invitation and the care - I felt right at home from beginning to end and look forward to connect with y'all next time ❤

"Here it is. A down and midtempo journey as dark as this January that is soon behind us. It begins on the very slow and soft end with a track I love and travels across a few bpms, keeping the same dark vibe. It's some of the groovy and bouncy stuff that I love to play with, ready for you to bubble away during activities such as riding a bike, putting nail polish on, chopping onions or cuddling. I hope you'll find the proper use for it, and see you soon on a dancefloor near you." @tadoh

Culture Box Podcast 113 – tadoh

Somewhere in between hard and fluff, for a beginning of the decade that will be hard to forget.

Recorded in the afternoon of January 1st at Langsom, Rundtosset og Røgmaskine in Copenhagen, taking straight over from Malle.

A huge "thank you" to all of you who were there. Without you, this city wouldn't be half as fun.

Alla prossima, Nicola

Sofacast 7 | Tadoh

Here's the second chapter of a little challenge I threw myself in.

About a year ago I uploaded a mix, Before 79, consisting of tracks below 79 bpm. It was very well received and I promised myself I'd quickly release the second mix. Then loads of good things happened and I never found the time. I did now. So here's "Have you met the 80s?", a DJ mix within the range 80-89 bpm, ready to accompany your slow isolation time.

The masterplan: I am going to record a mix for every set of ten BPMs starting from the 70s and ending with the 120s.
The idea is to dig through my music library, being a bit less focused on the novelty of the tracks that I otherwise might be, and play around with slow and fast.

The rules are simple:
- Pitch up or down, but stay within the set of ten. Meaning the tracks in the 80s mix, start originally with 8x, and nothing above the line of 90 or below 80 is allowed in.
- Only use what's already on the hard drive. No hunting for new music specifically for this.
- The mix should be at least one hour long.

I remember the 70s mix to be super tough, while Have you met the 80s?, in comparison, was much easier. My library had more to offer in the 80s, a few tracks I've played out in super slow occasions, and most of it mixes well. However, it wasn't easy, and it took some time achieve a result whose flow I could be happy with.

I hope this little trip will be to your liking - if it is, feel free to repost and send it to your best friends. 

Also: In these hard times with lots of cancellations and no gigs on the horizon due the Covid-19 situation, you'll see a "Support tadoh" button on my Soundcloud profile. Clicking it will take you to Paypal and to the possibility of supporting me economically with a donation of your choice.  The whole music scene is bleeding from this situation, and artists, venues, promoters and many more have lost their income and are struggling to make ends meet. If you have a chance to support them/us, please do - whether it's me, another artist or your favorite local club.

See you soon(ish) for the 90s.

Have You Met The 80s?

► DWcast #45 - @tadoh

• tadoh is a Copenhagen-based DJ with a passion for downtempo and deep house. 

He started to prepare this podcast on Bicycle Day, and he let the date influence the whole mix, which got a psychedelic theme and became a kind of 'Bicycle Day Special'.

Tadoh's first adventures behind the booth took place within the radical left scene of Copenhagen, and his desire to bridge this environment with the raver scene led him in 2015 to launch a monthly series of soli-parties called Folkets Haus and later For Haus’ Sake. His sound matured along with these events and tadoh placed himself firmly as a key actor in the electronic music scene of the Danish capital.

Enjoy the journey.

DWcast #045 - tadoh

Friends, THANK YOU FOR A MINDBLOWING FUSION! 

It is known that Fusion is a state of mind. Somehow I have very few memories of it this year's festival. But I'm pretty sure I was there. Here's two pieces of evidence: a picture of the rocket, that was found on my phone (the image you see here) 🚀, and a recording named "Fusion 2020" on found on my hard drive.

The backbone of this comes from an intimate but fun open-air here in Copenhagen, that I then readapted some. While recording it I got pretty emotional to be honest. Fusion was my entrance gate to this music, and I haven't skipped a year since 2010. Luckily 2017 showed that summer happens also in the Fusion-less years.

This set is a bit of a BPM rollercoaster. It starts one place, go up, then down, then I drop 20 BPM at once and start again at 90, to end around the 113. I like to think that the different sections will also take you by hand on a little imaginary journey through our favourite playground. We probably start at fernab's beach paradise, head over to Sonnendeck, back to Karla Kutter, jump for a beer at Räuberhöle before heading to Tanzwüste and perhaps a little sprinkle of Bachstelzen - just to make sure that everything is out of control and as crazy as it is supposed to be at this time and place of the year.

Keep strong out there, keep clean outside and dirty inside, and hope to catch you soon, or at the latest at the 2021 rocket-science enthusiasts gathering.

So: here comes my Fusion set for 2020 - don't let the pandemic cheat you and get your yearly dose of rocket medicine.

Fusion 2020 - with love and rockets

Hard times behind, hard times ahead. But I'm truly happy that we managed to squeeze some soft and fluffy times in between the two.

The F.A.M. crew invited for an intimate gathering, that turned out to be the last dance before a new round of restrictions here in Denmark.

I had a bunch of tracks I really wanted to play for a dancefloor, no matter its size, and I'm happy the opportunity presented itself just in time.

So here's the recording of the closing set of this beautiful night. You'll find some of my favorite tracks of the past months and a few unreleased gems, including a work in progress of mine ;)

Hope it'll take off the edges of your hard times, too.

Love,
Nicola
