Our next mix comes from someone we've been dying to have on here - one of our absolute favourite producers and DJs @caim-records ! 

As one of the mainstays in the Amsterdam scene, Mark has been putting out some incredibly classy records on his own imprint, drawing inspiration from deep house, electro, techno and the incredible talent pool of his peers such as Eversines, RDS and Human Space Machine. 

As well as his productions, he is an incredibly deep digger with the skills to match, flawlessly weaving together gems from across the musical spectrum of the last 20 years. As you know, this is exactly what we like here at On Ro so we're more than happy to present this fantastic mix from a true DJ's DJ.

Kapitelcast 040 - Innuendo

Wow, time flies! When I think it's been 6 years already... I remember as if it was yesterday, when on some random early autumn afternoon my good friend Jerome called me. "What are you up to in two weeks?", he asked. "Nothing in particular, why?" "We got a slot at CDV for you!" I think that's the words every passionate DJ of our small and precious cosmos of music enthusiasts likes to hear. :)

Two weeks later, arrived in Berlin, it was very special to me. Also because it was my friend Fabi's birthday additionally. This was also when I met my friend Mikhail aka Studnev. But besides the good vibrations between friends it was also kinda nerve wracking to me - playing at CDV the first time... exciting!

On the day of the event the weather was quite bad, it was end of September, so it was quite chilly for a night at CDV, and we were unsure of being able to open at all, as it was even raining in the early afternoon. 

A few hours later, as the weather had changed for good, Fabi, Chris, Mikhail, some friends and me were standing there, on the terrace of CDV, on a late and cool afternoon in September. First all by ourselves, excited what’s to come.

I started to play, I had the first slot and I had prepared some weird ambient music for the beginning. As I've been playing a bit I kinda sensed, that everybody, including myself, was a feeling bit tense and I felt that the weird music I was playing made the tension even stronger, haha. So I had a couple of drinks, and just let myself go, I tried to not think too much about what I was doing and just play from my heart to create a kinda loose and not to serious vibe with my music. 

And this is where this cut emerged. It's the third hour of my set, we all have had a couple of drinks, and I had the feeling that it was working out. Everybody seemed to relax and so did I. It's the part where I have the most emotions attached to. It's kinda weird and not heading to a certain direction, and that's what makes this cut so special to me, as I can hear I was not thinking too much, but surrendering to the music and the moment. 

In the end I think it all worked out great, the club was filled with smiling faces, all the DJs played great, a lot of friends showed up and I also met new friends - everybody seemed to have a good time. I remember it to be a very special night to me and I am greatful for the experience to CDV, my hosts Fabi & Chris, Mikhail and all the friends that showed up and generally to everybody who has been supporting me over the years!

Cheers mates!

Gabriele (@ggaabbrriieellee) collects music, occasionally enjoys playing weird tunes to small dancing crowds, run a small record label called @Sunnycrypt and also spends some of his happiest days working in a record shop. Driven by a strong curiosity towards a wide range of musical genres coming from different eras and different cultural contexts, he co-curated the "Italian Dancefloor Outsiders 1987 - 1994" project, a retrospective compilation of under-the-radar leftfield club music released by Sound Metaphors' THANKYOU.

Two hours and a quarter is approximately the time of a car ride from Milano - the place I’ve been living for 10 something years now - to Massa, my hometown, in the northern end of Tuscany.
This mix kind of tries to embody both length and feeling wise one of those travels, the mixed feelings in kind of leaving a part of my current life behind while embracing memories from the past, adapting to a much slower peace, feeling the breeze of the sea and the salt on my skin, deep diving into a river, hiking a hill… or maybe I’m just overthinking as per usual, and this mix is just a selections of tunes I really like that might be a good fit for your next car ride : )
