Bulbul Radio 050 - maxim_jl

@maxim_jl is a Berlin-based DJ with a deep passion for house music, blending
everything from disco-inspired grooves to the punchy energy of modern hard
house. His sets are all about high-energy rhythms, keeping the dancefloor moving
while staying in tune with the crowd.

About the mix:
“This mix is very special to me. It’s my first set fully centered around the modern
hard house movement. It’s faster, tougher, and a little bolder than my usual
selections, but it stays true to what drives me most: high-energy house at its
core.”

Groove Therapy Tapes #011: maxim_jl

Born in Frankfurt am Main, maxim_jl found his footing on the dance floors of institutions such as Robert Johnson, Cocoon and Tanzhaus West, absorbing house and techno from an early age. Now Berlin-based, he threads that formative schooling into sets that glide from disco-fueled grooves to the punchy momentum of modern house, always tuned to the pulse of the floor.

Appearances at venues like ÆDEN, ÆVE, Kater Blau and an active role within the ALA BØRA collective, curating gatherings that put connection first, have sharpened his instinct for balance: high-energy rhythms up front, human connection woven through every transition. His mission is timeless: create spaces where strangers trade smiles, sweat and new stories, giving back to the culture that has shaped him.
