Steffi*, also known as "Mind Crash," calls Bremen his home and has been involved in the techno scene since 2008. It was at this time that he was introduced to the subcultural club project ZUCKER, which sparked his passion for underground raves and DJing. Slowly but surely, he began to make a name for himself in the local scene, supporting underground events and eventually becoming a resident DJ at ZUCKER CLUB. He also collaborated closely with AUDITIVE, a Bremen-based vinyl label, and organized regular, in-depth label parties.

From 2010 to 2014, he also worked part-time as a booker for Lightplanke Club and its eponymous after-hours bar. 
After becoming part of the highly successful party series "heimlich" by Bebetta and Le Palf, his gigs expanded nationally. He had the opportunity to play at clubs and festivals such as Fusion, Wilde Möhre, Keller Club, Sisyphos, Kater Blau, and Salon Zur Wilden Renate.

In 2014, Steffi moved to Berlin to gain a deeper understanding of the scene and its clubs, as well as to participate in events. On the recommendation of a good friend, he attended one of the first Zugvøgel Festivals near Cologne in 2016 and was immediately captivated by the independent work and creativity of the organizers. From that moment on, he decided to support this project with passion.

In 2021, he decided to retire his artist name "Mind Crash" and established Steffi* as his definitive main identity. 

Around the same time, he also joined the Partiklub collective—a crew of friends, hedonists, and DJs who don’t take themselves too seriously and do everything out of love for the club and the music. Community is at the heart of what they do.

Steffi* musical preferences as a DJ are characterized by his love for deep, emotional, and especially melancholic music, as well as hypnotic, driving, and dramatically powerful sounds. Since the beginning of his career, he has aimed to combine these characteristics into a recognizable style, which sometimes makes him a secret weapon..especially for the early morning hours, after-hours, or closing sets in clubs or at festivals. His greatest motivation has always been to develop a distinctive and authentic sound in his DJ sets.

Having finally reached this point, his desire for musical diversity was still far from satisfied. This led him to pursue a new challenge with the project "NAOZOU", following his passion for downtempo and especially techno—clearly expressing his influences from psytrance as well. The techno sound in particular reveals his affinity for hypnotic and psychedelic sound elements, sometimes powerful and pressing, sometimes dry and driving.

Paartherapie – Wenn Techno zur gemeinsamen Heilung wird

Willkommen in der Praxis von Paartherapie, dem Live-Duo, das eure inneren Widersprüche auflöst und eure Energiekanäle mit pulsierenden Beats öffnet. Wir – zwei Seelen, vereint in einer Mission – erschaffen keine gewöhnlichen Sets, sondern eine musikalische Reise, die Herz und Geist synchronisiert.

Unsere Musik ist die Therapie, die wir uns und euch schenken. Zwischen hypnotischen Basslines und schwebenden Atmos entsteht ein Raum, in dem ihr alles loslassen könnt, was euch belastet. Unsere Live-Sessions sind keine Partys – sie sind kollektive Sitzungen, in denen wir mit jedem Drop und jeder Kickdrum ein bisschen näher zueinander finden.

Paartherapie bedeutet, sich gemeinsam fallen zu lassen, Konflikte im Rausch der Musik zu lösen und in die endlose Ekstase des Technos einzutauchen. Während wir auflegen, therapieren wir uns selbst – und durch unsere Klänge auch euch. Es gibt keine Grenzen, keine Masken, nur die pure Verbindung zwischen uns allen.

Komm zu uns, lass dich treiben und werde Teil der Paartherapie. Gemeinsam transformieren wir den Dancefloor in eine musikalische Heilungssitzung. Techno war nie so intensiv, so ehrlich, so nah.

Hier präsentieren PuzzleCat Entertainment & PuzzleCat Creative regelmäßig neue Abenteuer-Kriminalfälle von Meisterdetektiv Sherlock Holmes und seinem Freund Dr. Watson, sowie eine große Bandbreite an anderen Hörspielformaten. Alle Hörspiele sind selbst geschrieben, produziert und vertont – mit viel Spaß bei der Sache und immer angetrieben durch das Feedback der Community. 

Vielen Dank und beste Grüße

Euer
Gerd Haas
