All aboard the Dampfer 🛳️🦆 

This one was special – captaining the steamship at the Dampfer stage from 00:00 - 03:00, a goal I set back in 2023 when I first waddled through those infamous duck gates.

Got to sneak in four of my own originals, plus some unreleased heat from a few of my favourite local and international troublemakers. What a treat.

Big love to everyone who danced, raged, and shouted things at me I couldn’t hear over the foghorn.

Hope to return to the captain’s deck again soon.

Life jackets optional. Ducks mandatory.

Kolja & Bepo - Schwarm 

💭 A swarm is a formation of many birds flying as one. They move together in perfect coordination, gaining incredible strength through unity. As a group, they can cover hundreds of kilometers, almost like a single organism, following its own rules, rhythm and instincts. It is a beautiful metaphor for connection, movement and collective energy just like in music and at those events where different elements come together to create something greater than the sum of their parts.

🎵 This brand new EP features two top tier downtempo bangers. For the title track, Kolja & Bepo joined forces with Caspimo and Firewrks to create a true anthem about swarm. Just like birds in flight, the track captures a feeling of freedom and elevation. The drops hit hard and deliver pure, high class energy.
The second track, “Ibiza”, leans more into a progressive vibe. It features well arranged synth lines and carefully designed SFX, giving the track a rich and dynamic texture. Overall, this EP is a joyful ride full of organic vibes, emotional drive and deep groove. Thank you for listening.

A special mix prepared for Sundown:er @ Cirkus Paralello, a beautiful beach gathering filled with color, groove and pure summer techno vibes.

This journey moves from bouncy indie dance and dark disco into groovy midtempo and driving techno – exactly how I wanted the sunset energy to sound. 🌅🪩

Big love to the Sundown:er crew, Cirkus Paralello and everyone who danced with me that night. This one’s for you. ❤️

Kamai Music proudly welcomes back Berlin mainstay Christopher Schwarzwälder, returning
with a thoughtfully crafted rework of Kyong Sono’s Edelstein.

Schwarzwälder, well known for his deep, groove-driven touch, delivers a remix that is as
distinctive as it is versaitile. Stripped down to reveal the track’s soul, he layers warm tones
with his signature rhythmic finesse, crafting a version that glides effortlessly between the
dancefloor and more casual listening. By weaving subtle melodic details into the rich groove,
this reimagining of Edelstein strikes a perfect balance—vintage Chris styling infused with
warm energy. 

It’s a release that brings both depth and energy, capturing that sound we
absolutely love

A standout release for Kamai Music and an inspired reflection of the creative energy that
makes Berlin unique, this remix is perfect for fans of nuanced, groove-driven house.

Kyong Sono - Edelstein (Christopher Schwarzwalder Remix)

A melody that flows through the body and a groove that makes it move. With the soulful single Fragments by Nebu Mitte, we slowly bid farewell to summer.

Onais Remix intelligently picks up on the idea of the song and gives it her unmistakable minimalist touch that melts the dance floor.

Mastered by Haunted Water.
