Foreign Sound Exchange w/ On The Reg 🇦🇷 | Reboot.FM Berlin

London-born and Tokyo-based, Max Essa has spent over two decades crafting lush, melodic soundscapes that blur the lines between balearic, cosmic disco, and ambient pop. Emerging in the '90s on Warp and Paper Recordings, he found his true artistic stride after relocating to Japan in 2008. Since then, Essa has become a central figure in Tokyo’s underground scene, curating events like Zim Zam Zu! at Bar Bonobo and releasing music on labels such as Music For Dreams, Hell Yeah!, and Is It Balearic?

Essa’s style is warm, escapist, and deeply cinematic-often inspired by specific places: Okinawan beaches, Mediterranean ferries, or late-night Tokyo rooftops. His releases, like Lanterns, When I'm Homeward Bound, and The Clean Trip (with David Harks), radiate nostalgia and serenity, wrapped in silky synths and timeless grooves.

Beyond producing, Essa curates, mentors, and connects cultures-compiling Japanese ambient gems on Oto No Wa, together with Ken Hidaka and Dr Rob, and spotlighting local artists through interviews and collaborations. Whether on record or behind the decks, Max Essa invites listeners into a world where emotion, space, and memory guide the rhythm.

Recording of my DJ set at Club der Visionäre on August 12th. Unfortunately, the original recording was clipping quite a bit, so I re-recorded parts of the set. I had a bit too much fun, got carried away, and didn’t fully stick to my track list from that night 🫠. Hope you still enjoy it! Big thanks to Robert from Rawax for having me & shout out to Johannes Albert, Alexkid, Mario Liberti & Hila Max for the great company 🩵

Stoic Tunes - In Too Deep (feat. Profound DJ) [YHV RECORDS]

◼️ Badlands Radio Host at @blooplondon 🇬🇧
◼️ DJ & Producer @ibadan @bbemusic @studiobarnhus @trapez_official 💿
◼️ Based in San Francisco 🇺🇸 & Berlin 🇩🇪 
◼️ From Helsinki, Finland 🇫🇮
◼️ Bookings: janne@jannetavi.com

For the Finnish-born, San Francisco and Berlin-based DJ, producer and music curator, Janne Tavi it’s all about paying it forward “What good is music and the people behind it if it’s not being shared?” says Janne.

Born in Helsinki, Janne’s passion for music started early fueled in part by his synesthesia, a  condition causing people to perceive music in color. He spent a great deal of his youth in scouring Helsinki’s libraries and making sense of the colors. 

After being scouted by @ibadan while volunteering in a Helsinki nightclub, Janne moved to Berlin and found himself in a vibrant city, surrounded by a global artist roster and working alongside his childhood music idols – the legends of house and techno.

As his involvement with music deepened both in the studio and at Ibadan’s label HQ as an A&R, Janne’s musical aesthetic expanded beyond the limits of traditional genres. Rather than adhere to subjective categorizations that divide music, Janne always stays true to the vibe of any given room or occasion.

Janne found his calling in radio when he in 2021 launched his monthly London radio show, Badlands, focusing on connecting people with new talent, interviewing legends and paying tribute to its pioneers.

With his past collaborations and future releases with Kerri Chandler, Robert Owens, Fred P, Deetron and Cee ElAssaad, Janne is affirming his place as a torchbearer of the next generation. From his baptism by fire at his first ever club gig at Berghain/Panorama Bar to collaborations with legendary producers and now hosting his own radio show, Janne’s future bristles with opportunity.
