some music we loved in 2024

Wow what an amazing weekend at @wildemoehre <3

Big thanks for this great invitation! 
I recorded my set with my field recorder but somehow I had some gaps in my recording. So I had to fix it and put the 3 parts back toghether. 

My set contains only own productions, remixes and edits. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did when I was playing and dreaming! Much love <3

ACUD taktet seinen ersten Langzeitspieler mit dem erfrischenden Lied Supermarkt auf!
Der Berliner Musiker, bildende Künstler (fast Diplom) und Labelbetreiber Lasse Winkler aka ACUD hat mit Titeln wie MATJESFILET oder VERBRENNUNGSMOTOR auf sich aufmerksam gemacht. Er zeigt, das elektronische Tanzmusik durchaus Humor haben kann, ohne im Klamauk zu enden. Stilistisch schwer einzuordnen, eckt er zeitweise hier und da an Genres wie IndieDance, Downtempo und AcidHouse an. Knarzende Bässe und swingende Rhythmen aus alten Drum-Machines treffen auf warme analoge Synth-Chords und unterstützen seine helle Stimme. Das Mikrofon, immer einsatzbereit, ersetzt seinen Notizblock. Es entstehen knappe, spontane Schlagwörter, Sätze, den Alttag aufschnappend. 

Die nun erste Single seines im Februar 23’ erscheinenden Albums VERDAMMT NOCHMAL beschäftigt sich mit den einfachen Dingen des Lebens: Supermarkt. Dieses Mal ist es aber kein Matjes, den er sich im besagten besorgt. Nein, jetzt wo der hohe Sommer vor der Tür steht, steigt sein Bedarf an Zitronen und Quark- immer Garant für den von ihm besungenen guten Tag. Dass diese Single sich in Bauch und Beine spielen wird, ist nicht nur den warmknarzenden Beats, die noch jeden aus dem Bett schleifen würden, und dem klaren Optimismus seiner Stimme gegeben. Auch das einhergehende Musikvideo, in dem u.A. die Schauspielerin DEBORAH KAUFMANN (Dark) zu sehen ist, zeigt auf, dass ACUD mit Single und Platte wieder und jetzt so richtig da ist!

In a time where electronic music gets harder and faster each day, Berlin-based duo Brigade‘s debut album „Hard Times, Soft Music“ reclaims easy listening as a badge of honour. Being released on the 14.10.2022, the record is a meticulously calibrated work of room temperature, a home cooked meal between friends or a warm sonic blanket that tugs you in after a rainy day. Pushing their club roots to the side, Brigade‘s debut album confidently sits between ambient, house and hip hop. „We took the pandemic as a cue to take a break from dancefloor productions and play around with different genres and production styles.“ The first single „International Communication™“ showcases that breadth and introduces an album pretty much anyone in the post-Shrek cultural landscape could agree on. Basically, if you appreciate a good hug, chances are you‘ll enjoy this LP. 
Also, theres a pretty cute dog on the cover.

G R Ä F I N • Z O B E L  (engl.: Countess Zobel)  [@graefin_zobel | GER]  is a Brandenburger power woman, part time Berlin b and DJ. Infatuated with the timeless allure of old soul and jazz music, she transitioned from being a vinyl collector to a skillful DJ during the pandemic. Her sets weave together a tapestry of diverse old-school tunes plucked from her extensive vinyl collection. 

When the clubs in Berlin opened again, she was happy to play her first gig at the reopening of MenschMeier. Since then dancers and dreamers in clubs and at festivals like Moyn & Bucht der Träumer*  enjoy her afterhour jazzy soul sets, freaky funk und dancy disco sets. 
Let her take us on a ride through time!

Multi Culti shine light on one of the key players of the Lithuanian scene with ‘V’’s ‘Voyage Voyage.’ 

Venerated mystery man V stands for many things, but first and foremost: Vilnius. Resident at Opium Club & Gallery 1986, founder of Ant Bangos, Alfavilnius and OLE Festivals, creator of Silence Music, Best Kept Secret and Le Temps Perdu labels - the artist formerly known as 'Vidis’ has been a mainstay in Lithuanian music for over 20 years, a talented curator, community builder and, of course, DJ.

With ‘Voyage Voyage’, V crystallizes his musical aesthetics, presenting a stripped-down mix of 80s new wave and 2000s electro  - influences no doubt familiar to the legions of Lithuanian fans that have been chugging along to his sets for the last 20+ years. 

On ‘Avventura,’ V enlists Domenique Dumont for a cinematic instrumental, with a new-wave indie bass-line sailing us past epic strings and contrapuntal melodies in dreamy nostalgic fashion. 

Multi Culti co-founder Dreems jumps in to the deep end on ‘Kosmische Muzik,’ a rollicking jam that combines the pastoral psychedelic feeling of Krautrock with industrial prog-tronica.

There’s enough variety in this triptych to keep things interesting while still feeling cohesive, a skillful set of tracks that showcases V’s vast experience while pointing to this being very much the beginning for him as a producer.

This is the recording of my set at Golden Gate Berlin, at the end of the night of our @wohnzimmer030 takeover.

Still looking back with a smile when remembering the gate people and their vibe, it was a blast!

Wohnzimmer030 takeover at Golden Gate Berlin

Freeride Millenium label head Jorkes sits right at the heart of the European scene. Their DJ sets and productions are famously emotionally charged and draw from house and disco across ages. They come on labels like AUS, Permanent Vacation, and Live At Robert Johnson and alongside Jorkes's work as a vocal LGBTQIA+ activist who always centers marginalized people in what they do alongside partner Daniel Rajcsanyi, who always provides original artwork for the releases.
This new EP is a homage to the bathhouse cruising lifestyle and is themed under Jorkes's lover’s ‘Paris Böhm’ alias, as he is a masseur at Apollo gay city sauna in the heart of Vienna, which is where Freeride Millennium hosted sauna parties.
'+4367762558223' kicks off with thumping house drums and a grinding bassline before tender, molten synth sounds swirl about the mix to bring intimacy and romance. Melancholic leads extend the lushness further amongst muffled vocal musings. The loved-up 'Pool' is awash with exuberant old-school piano chords and dusty Chicago drums that bring the good times. 'Apollo City Sauna' shows a vulnerable side to Jorkes's sound, with introverted synth work and rubbery basslines providing deep thought and late-night dancing. Closer 'In My Arms' is a five-minute synth odyssey full of self-reflection and tender keys that soothe the soul.

Written, Produced, and mixed by Jorkes.

“Jon Skarin – April” explores the sound of renewal, blending cinematic soundtracks, classical motifs, world-inspired textures, and gentle folk elements. The album captures the spirit of April — a month of shifting skies, blooming life, and emotional clarity. Each piece unfolds like a moment in spring, creating a warm, reflective, and atmospheric listening journey.
