In this weeks episode we’d like to welcome @gabriel_solid - half of the DJ Duo Götze&Wohlfahrt and part of the mighty Solid Rotation crew. Gabriel recorded a smooth selection of house music containing dreamy patterns and calming vocals combined with some break beats straight from the sea, as he calls Hamburg his home of choice at the moment.

**Shizo van de Sunflower: From Working-Class Child to Celebrated DJ and Producer – A Life for Music**

DJ & Producer / Deep House, House, Electro, IDM, Drum and Bass, Dubstep Works – Highest-Quality Remaster. Shizo van de Sunflower, born in 1977, spent his youth in Apolda, Thuringia. As the child of a working-class family, he grew up with little financial freedom. The period of upheaval following reunification brought with it, for him, as for many in eastern Germany, the dark side of capitalism. In 2000, he found himself heavily in debt. But instead of resigning himself, the following years were characterized by hard work, retraining, and a relentless focus on his musical development. This persistence is now paying off, as his re-releases and the eagerly anticipated new album "Healing Rain 2025" represent the latest milestones in his impressive career.

Following the coronavirus pandemic and personal setbacks, Shizo van de Sunflower has emerged from a period of depression and released two albums within two years, while already working on further projects. The fun-loving TV junkie, sports fanatic, passionate sound tinkerer, and track tinkerer is thus continuously expanding his fan base and simultaneously celebrating his social media comeback. Following the success of the 2020 IDM EP "Simple Mind," this year's ambient album "Drone 1," and the drum and bass single "Changes," the Dresden-based artist is laying the next musical foundation.

Shizo van de Sunflower has reissued his 14 best musical works, created between 2006 and 2016, for video creators and image filmmakers, remastering all of the tracks to a high standard. This is exciting news for video artists and anyone who wants to experience the artist's full sonic spectrum: "I simply want to position my music better than it currently is on the Creative Commons Platform. My successes this year demonstrate the interest in my music. Therefore, changing platforms and re-releasing it was inevitable for me to bring the music up to current quality standards."

The remarkable success of "Drone 1," which was released on February 28, 2022, and quickly reached over 11,000 streams on Spotify, as well as the drum and bass single "Changes," released on October 7, 2022, which has already garnered over 14,500 streams, speak for themselves. With his first album and the successes he's accumulated, Shizo van de Sunflower has not only found his fan base, but also already has the next "shizoelectric hammer" under his belt: "Works (2006-2016)," the concentrated work of the great Dresden native, was released on November 11, 2022.

The feeling? Vinyl! Such figures and perspectives naturally lift Shizo van de Sunflower's spirits. "I'm blown away by this success," confirms the now 48-year-old do-it-yourself artist. "There's hardly anything more fulfilling than simply doing your own thing and reaching and inspiring people with it. It's a good feeling." That's why he decided to produce his album on vinyl, limited to 100 copies, available at Amazon, at the Dresden vinyl shop GrooveAmt, in Jena at FATPlastics, in Munich at Monkey Island Records, and at the Cologne Kompakt Recordstore.

At the same time, he wants to actively entertain his fans and anyone who wants to become one again as a DJ: "Getting people moving with music, even if they're just tapping their feet, is simply awesome," enthuses Shizo van de Sunflower. Alongside all the dancing and vibrating vibes in Shizo's music, fans who want to let go, who need to be caught, who are looking for peace and balance, will also find a home.

In summary: In Shizo van de Sunflower's world, those who are vibing and listening will be just as captivated as those who let their feet dance uncontrollably across the floor. What else is there to add? May the sun be with him – and we can already look forward to "Healing Rain 2025"!
