What a journey this set was for me. A journey to love. A tender love, a lustful one. One full of passion and tenderness. One that is addressed to me. One that is a home for all of us. A love that lasts a lifetime, like that of my two wonderful friends as they celebrated their 25 year non-wedding anniversary on the day of the recording. A love that knows no barriers or boundaries, but blows them away effortlessly. A love that defies the storms, is strong and unshakably soft at its core. A love that can forgive, itself and others. A love that grows steadily because it is curious and compassionate. 
And above all, a love that is unconditional. 
May this infinite love rain down on you whenever you need it. May you live in the knowing that this love is within you. May it accompany you, guide you, inspire you. 
You are full of wonder and capable of anything - just the way you are. I forget that very often, as perhaps we all do. Thank you to all those who tirelessly remind me. May we be shelter to each other. 
I love you!

ALMA LINDAS LOVE IN-FUSION 2023

I travelled home from the fusion festival site in several trains, listening to fine music, that I've been collecting in playlists for over decades now. When listening to this, watching the landscape pass by, it sometimes feels like being in a movie and the soundtrack is kicking in and maybe a little tear ran down my face. I felt empty and full of feelings the same time and tried to capture these whole festival-experiences in this tape. Have fun with my fusion recaps from the last years ;)
From my festival diary:
We discussed the universe, we put music into colours, we were smart and dumb together, switched off our heads, talked about in what kind of a society we want to live in, on and next to the dancefloor, we danced, sang along, cuddled, kissed, cried and fighted. We did not sleep enough for sure and sometimes it gets very grey what was so colourful before, when we are not in good company anymore. The devil comes and hugs us. I try to imagine then the people, that love me, by my side <3 you know who you are ;)

The audios are taken from voice-messages from my phone obviously :) and documentaries such as:
the one, when Olli Schulz visited me on the 3000Grad Festival site:

and "Hass gegen Queer" (Triggerwarning!)
https://www.ardmediathek.de/video/dokumentation-und-reportage/hass-gegen-queer/das-erste/Y3JpZDovL2Rhc2Vyc3RlLmRlL3JlcG9ydGFnZSBfIGRva3VtZW50YXRpb24gaW0gZXJzdGVuLzIwMjMtMDctMTlfMjItNTAtTUVTWg
because this is a huge subject we need to talk about in our scene! I am not a fan of spoiling the fun, but festivals are not a safe space also. A fact that is ignored by too many guests, artists and people in charge. We need change!

After the festival I was part of a panel by "My body is not your porn" at about blank Berlin. I was so empty, but I tried my best. Thank you so much to the organizers and the awareness-crews and guests that have been there!

#148: mattmosphere - Montagssorbet mit Laut & Luise

Ten years in the making, we finally fulfilled the dream of getting Madmotormiquel on to the river bank for a Sunday afternoon - and boy did he deliver. Not only were the records selected exactly what we would have hoped for - but he brought along another secret weapon - Mimi Love. Mimi's infectious energy and unstoppable selections were a fine match for Michi's - and here it is in all its glory. Enjoy!

Dearest People of Fusion,
Playing for you last Thursday felt out of this world. Period.
Not much more to add here but saying thank you!
Heavy rain from mid set on combined with all you resilient dancers created an unreal atmosphere.
That’s why I do it!

Chris Schwarzwalder - Fusion 2024

Fusion Festival 2024 b2b with my dear friend Nacho Isa at my homebase Panne Eichel/ Bachstelzen floor.

this wasnt an easy year for me during a palestinian boycott of the festival as i stand with my friends from palestine and the arab world during these terrible times of an ongoing genocide. but i decided to be there and talk to people and see what is going on at our beloved fusion festival. 
in the end i was happy to see many artists standing with palestine and speaking up , and many people wearing Kufiyas in solidarity with palestine.
we had a great time playing and we hope you enjoyed it as much as we did <3

Madmotormiquel & Nacho Isa - Fusion Festival 2024

"How can you know what I feel? How can you know if you don't listen to me? Raised to be silent, not born to be silent. Born to live, to be free, to be human, to find our own language. We still want to talk, to exchange, to trust and to try. It exists: one language; but it is not taught to us. All the horror, the facts, almost unbearable but we live, we feel. Finding what is inside us, what we are born with. So much to unlearn, that seems to be the motto. Where are those who give us hope, who accompany us? We are not the freaks, that's completely others. We are not evil and violent but we are rageous and tender. Tenderly feeling and searching for love and peace, for humanity..." 
INTRO translation (Track: Verteilt Euch-Decha)

Really one of my favourite Fusions ever. Still delivering the sweetest, craziest unique atmospheres like always. Such good music, people, vibes. My set was the cherry on top for me with a truly solid energetic Dancefloor. I am super thankful for everyone who made this epic event possible...♥︎

Wonderfruit, what can we say? We're in love! This set will stay in our memory forever - the vibe, sound and production at Polygon stage was next level and something we'll never forget. We have no doubt that when we're old and wrinkly and looking back at our career, we'll remember this set and the magic we created together that night :) Thank you to Wonderfruit, Polygon and the ravers who followed us down our rabbit hole, this was one for the books <3 C&S

The Crush is a groovy house track with deep vibes and subtle vocal cuts. Born from a moment of intuition – hypnotic, driving, and effortlessly charming.
