Early Hours DJ Mix

5 Hour DJ set from my regular residency. Top night as always! 

Mr Scruff DJ set, Manchester Band on the Wall, Saturday 3rd October 2015

I woke up with an urge to play some downtempo/hip hop/mushroom jazz so I got on Sugar Shack Recordings and did just that.  Hot tea and whiskey helped me to get things rolling.  Hope you dig it and share.  Cheers :-)

Mushroom Jazz With Kochi On Sugar Shack Recordings 492016

Here the full 3h Jazzanova DJ set by Alex Barck and Stefan Leisering, live recorded at Wedding Soul in Panke Berlin in Jan 2017. Many thanks to Alex, Stefan and Best Works! Enjoy listening!


JAZZANOVA

For almost twenty years the eclectic collective from Berlin has been busy producing, composing, arranging, remixing, djing and generally shaping our musical world – in the clubs, on the air, in the studio, live on stage, and with their label Sonar Kollektiv.

Their “very fertile musical world” (Time Out New York) “has dominated the jazz-dance and down-tempo scenes for the past few years, both with its own label and with countless remixes” (Phoenix New Times).

Spreading their sounds and ideas with inspired DJ sets, Jazzanova’s DJs were among the first DJs from Berlin in demand all around the world. Juergen von Knoblauch, Alex Barck and Claas Brieler broaden the music’s appeal as DJs, not only on tour through the best clubs and festivals around the world but also on their weekly Kaleidoskop radio show on Radio1.

5YRS WEDDING SOUL

Five years of WEDDING SOUL, we look back on so far 60 shows of this small big event series. The jubilee is now celebrated according to the mood, with a two-day program, with exquisite guests, representing what WEDDING SOUL is: a well thought-out mixture of soul and funk-inspired music culture, the roots of these in the back, the present and the future in view. Always danceable and audible, surprising, new, and yet as if there had never been anything other than a connection between heart, dance, and soul.

JAZZANOVA's Alex Barck & Stefan Leisering at WEDDING SOUL Jan 2017

This is the live recording of my opening set for the night along with special guest, your mom's favorite DJ, TURTLE BUGG (Sublimate) and super talented residents Andy Grant, Katrina Mir & Ramirez for a night of underground warehouse grooves powered by the presidential Grand Ancestor Sound System and Bozak "Audio For The Soul".  First time ever played some downtempo stuff on Bozak rotary mixer with isolator and the Grand Ancestor Sound System and it was pure bliss.  Hope you dig and share :-)
