The Italian-German composer, DJ and founder of the record label 99CHANTS. He has been releasing music since 2010, but it took self- evaluation and a re-examination of his priorities for August to lean towards the future and follow his most experimental inclinations.
In 2023, his output is harder than ever to define, stretching across genres and disciplines to chafe the heart of the human experience.

Riding in with the power to deliver sunshine to world’s rainiest open-air events, Monkey Safari brings rays of light to whatever dance floors they cast their shimmering spell on. 

The past few years saw the brothers swinging to new trees, retiring their previous labels to focus on their new label 'Hommage.' It were the years of transformation for the German producers, developing and tailoring a sound suited perfectly for the unique club nuances while still keeping the core elements of melodic chords and grooves synonymous with the duos productions. 

During this time, Monkey Safari unveiled their remix for Marc Houle’s “Pepper” on Richie Hawtin’s label Minus and their hugely successful “Cranes” and “Walls“ EPs that presented opportunities for Monkey Safari to work with some exciting musicians, such as Wolf + Lamb and Kölsch, techno heavy weights Guy Gerber and Josh Wink, as well as one of dance music’s most iconic producers, Moby. 

Monkey Safari remixed a track for Moby & The Void Pacific Choir, returning the favor after Moby’s successful rework of the duo’s track “Walls” last year. Their next releases continued in the same fashion, featuring remixes from Paco Osuna, Chloé, John Digweed & Nick Muir, UNER, Guy Mantzur, Victor Ruiz and more, while signing tracks from amazing Blond:ish, legendary John Tajada, and others on their Hommage imprint. 

The duo’s efforts in the studio have transcended to their DJ sets with stand out shows at Time Warp and Awakenings Festival. On top of a heavy touring schedule at world renowned clubs and headlining slots at festivals, the duo released their album ‘Odyssey’. Monkey Safari produced the same kind of tracks for this album they were playing as they toured nightclubs and festivals around the world, rather than simply a listening album. 

In 2018 Monkey Safari carefully handpicked remixers they saw as most capable of continuing their vision for the album. The ‘Odyssey Remixes’ featured reworks of the original album tracks by the master himself, Carl Cox, international stars Hernan Cattaneo, Guy J, Musumeci, Tensnake and Reboot, studio geniuses Dubspeeka, Hannes Bieger, ROD, and Phil Moffa, as well as up-and-coming talent Avidus and Trivmph . 

Monkey Safari’s third album comes in perfect time for the summer sunshine of 2019. The duo follow up their last album, ‘Odyssey’, with this warm, inviting collection of music designed to brighten your day and complement the glorious sunny days that bless us during the summer. Sven and Lars learned some valuable lessons from their last long-player, and the new album ‘HI’ comes from a far more relaxed, easy-going place. An organic project that came together quite naturally, their third album sees the duo in high spirits ready to bring a large dose of positive vibes and emotional depth to the party. 

2020 and 2021 sees Monkey Safari moving closer to legendary brands Get Physical and Anjuna Deep, starting with a remix and a multitude of EPs on the labels. Watch out for more news soon! 

The German outfit has been on an incredible run of form with promising developments in all of their endeavors and exciting news still to come. Be it a fresh remix or EP drop, DJ set or party, Monkey Safari will be sure to touch all scopes of dance culture with no signs of deceleration on the horizon. 
Their mandate remains the same, sending sunny vibes to make even the darkest dance floors smile.

Der ausgebildete Jazztrompeter und Blaswandler, sowie Komponist und Produzent Thalstroem ist zur Zeit vorwiegend mit AKA AKA, sowie in unregelmäßigen Abständen mit LAN und in Kombination mit Grambow unterwegs. 

Thalstroem ist seit Ende der 1990er Jahre als Berufsmusiker tätig. Während seines Musikstudiums in München und Amsterdam (2000-2005) wirkte er u.a. an Großproduktionen wie „A Tribute to Diversity“ mit. Er bewegte sich zu Beginn noch vorwiegend in der Jazzszene, es dauerte jedoch nicht lange, bis auch sein Interesse für elektronische Produktionen geweckt war. 

Thalstroem lebt und arbeitet seit 2005 in Berlin, wo er zunächst wesentlicher Bestandteil des LAN-Kollektivs war.

Seit seinem ersten gemeinsamen Auftritt im März 2010 mit Hannes und Holger, ist Thalstroem regelmäßiges Mitglied des Live Sets von AKA AKA. Schon bei der Vorbereitung auf ihren ersten Gig zeichnete sich eine gute musikalische Zusammenarbeit ab; erste gemeinsame Produktionen sind bereits fertig gestellt, viele weitere derzeit in Arbeit. Auf ihr erstes Konzert im Watergate (Berlin) folgten zahlreiche erfolgreiche Abende in verschiedenen Clubs verteilt über ganz Deutschland, z.B. im Tresor (Berlin), in der Arena (Berlin), der Roten Sonne (München), dem Rote Sonne Openair (München), der Winterworld 2011 (Wiesbaden) u.v.m... Zahlreiche weitere Gigs für 2011 sind ebenfalls bereits bestätigt, darunter neben Berlin auch Stuttgart, Frankfurt, Rosenheim, Köln, Flensburg, Erfurt, und viele weitere Städte.

Den Grundstein für die Kooperation mit dem Pianisten, Komponisten und Produzenten Grambow legten die beiden schon während ihrer Studienzeit in Amsterdam. Gemeinsam traten sie u.a. mit dem DJ Kollektiv „WickedJazzSounds“ auf und leisteten ihren Beitrag zu diversen Veröffentlichungen und Produktionen im Jazz-Bereich; in erster Linie verband sie jedoch ihre immer größer werdende Leidenschaft für elektronische Musik und deren Möglichkeiten. So beschlossen sie, nach Beendigung ihres Studiums im Jahr 2005 nach Berlin zu ziehen, wo sie gemeinsam mit einer Reihe weiterer Musiker LAN gründeten, eine Formation, die es sich zum Ziel setzte, elektronische Musik live zu performen. Im Gegensatz zu Grambow ist Thalstroem heute zwar kein festes Mitglied mehr von LAN, bei Studioproduktionen sowie live (z.B. auf der Fusion 2010) wirkt er in unregelmäßigen Abständen jedoch weiterhin mit.

As a founding member of the legendary quartet Kombinat100, Molle aka Mollono.Bass is a well known face within the scene since quite some time. His deep passion for electronic music caused the foundation of Acker Records in 2006, which he leads as its mastermind, as well as the launch of 3000° Records in 2008. And that’s still not enough: The always cheerful dude from the north-eastern German state of Mecklenburg is also involved in the projects Rundfunk3000 and Eulenhaupt & Mollenhauer. Behind the turntables as well as live, Mollono.Bass presents minimal Techhouse beats which directly aim the dance floor and therefore always contain a proper portion of bounce. The efficiency of his grooves has been proved by various successful productions and remixes on Acker and Ostwind Records. Also, Molle’s talent has already been smelled beyond the herring pond, a collaboration with Los Angeles resident Absurd Records will present a series of his tracks. Like already known from his productions for Kombinat100, Mollono.Bass embeds warm, groovy and driving drum sets into a dubby, harmonic and emotional soundscape. His organic tunes with a touch of atmospheric sounds take the listener on a journey through time and space. Who does not feel like dancing when listening to this music, should probably just stay at home!
