Mira_NYE_Kater Closing_M8_2.1.14

KLEINE GESCHICHTE:

imagine you started djing about 1,5yrs ago because of a pretty selfish reason: you just wanted to be part of a beautiful festival summer but simply just could not because of a broken leg. the solution: change the dancefloor against the dj booth. yes, it is possible to spin records while sitting (with an itchy cast) on a dark green velvet sofa in front of your smiling and dancing friends. and you know what? it is the most beautiful feeling i have ever had :) 

imagine spending every single minute with practicing, digging music and creating sets. imagine working fulltime in a regular job but also fulltime on the weekends behind the decks. imagine finding a hobby that gives you nothing but love and joy. imagine turning that hobby into a passion.

imagine being super insecure even though you already have a lot of bookings. imagine being full of doubts every time you hit the play button. 

imagine you suddenly get a mail. PING. the mail is from @mira_kater. it is your first booking at kater blau. the place you loved so much since ever. the place you feel like home and identify with. the booking you have dreamt about since the beginning.

and then imagine you have to go there alone because all of your friends are at a festival at your hometown. the festival you built all together. the festival that means family to you. imagine switching your playtime and leaving your friends at the peaktime to catch your train in the morning to go to berlin nearly without any sleep. 7 hours of loneliness, 7 hours to get nervous like hell. 7 hours to prepare your set. imagine arriving at berlin super happy and super sad at once. 

yes, i was full of doubts again when i hit the play button at my beloved hopper floor. i missed my friends. i was afraid to fail. but suddenly everything changed. i changed. i changed my playlist and i changed my mindset. and that changed everything.  

i realized how fucking blessed i am. i realized that i am just so honored to warm up the floor for mira. i realized that i got booked for such a big event as a newcomer. i realized kater opened its doors for fresh faces and i am one of them. 

and then i realized my little brother who came to see me playing for the first time. i realized one of my oldest friends who came to cheer me up even though she usually does not listen to that kind of music. i realized one of my newest friends who came all the way from freiburg just to support me. i realized another good friend  who danced like there is no tomorrow even though i opened a completely empty dancefloor. and then i realized all these strangers who started to fill the floor even though the sun was shining outside and a lot of headliners were playing at the same time. 

family, friends, strangers, me - we danced and smiled together. and i got so so happy :) i played just how i felt. i played a looot of my fav bar25 and katermukke hits. this is the result. i hope you like it.

happiness is only real when shared <3

Gemächlich stapft sie dort, die Discowölfin, entlang des Horizonts fängt sie die ersten Sonnenstrahlen ein. Ihr Fell ist benetzt von euphorisiertem Schweiß und dem Glitzer der Nacht, das wie ein Sternenstaubschleier über ihr hängt. Sie kratzt sich am zu wachen Kopf, ihre Pfoten sind müde und doch entzückt von den letzten Stunden Glückseligkeit im treibenden Sand. Die Discokugel um ihren Hals flüstert ihr vertraulich zu "Eine Station liegt noch auf deinem Weg" und so dubt sie weiter und weiter und weiter...

Loxodrome is the alias of UK producer Jamie Odell aka Jimpster for his more electronic leanings into the fault lines between nostalgia and circuitry.  Rooted firmly in the underground, his Loxodrome output filters the spirit of early 90s IDM through contemporary patchwork—equal parts introspective and rhythm-driven.
Call Me’s ghostly whistles sing over a unrelenting four/four kick whilst tropical samples combine with vintage synths like a love letter left on a dial-up modem.  Nostalgic, yes—but warped through future tense.

Here is the reconstruction of my set from Friday night 22:00-00:00 at Juicy Bar before Juicy Catz Madmotormiquel & Mimi Love & Esther Silex... I goosebumped 2 hours non-stop, thank you all for turning Juicy Bar into that cute jungle <3

My social media channels literally have exploded this week after Garbicz, with so many beautiful words and wishes of yours coming my way. I hope you know that I feel massive gratitude for all of it and hope to see you soon again somewhere around the world.

Happy re-listening & re-living!

Lockendisco - Discofever

a timetraveling journey through the music history

Sehr verehrte Mithörende,

ich freue mich darauf, euch heute ein Mixtape vorstellen zu dürfen, an dem ich mitlerweile etwas länger geschraubt habe. Bei unserer letzten Faultierdisko Radiosendung lief die erste Stunde davon schon im Stream und konnte die Arbeit am ersten Teil dieser Reihe nun beenden. Bis zum Jahreswechsel war ich noch als Trashmaster 3000 unterwegs und habe Partygäste mit der feinsten Selection der 70er, 80er, 90er und 00er beschallt. Im Downtempo finde ich meine Muse zur Disko wieder und kann hier beides Vereinenen. Das Titelbild ist in meinem alten Jugendclub dem AJZ Kita entstanden - dort wo ich mit dem Djing angefangen habe - das passte super wie ich finde.

In dieser Edition fangen wir im Jahre 1958 mit Peggy Lee an, arbeiten uns durch die Jahrzehnte und sacken Artists wie die Beatles, Pink Flyod, Falco, Suzi Q und andere Größen ihrer Zeit ein.
Die Moderne schlägt aber auch hier zu Buche, alle Tracks wurden von Namenhaften Künstlern der Downtempo Szene mit einem peppigen Elektrobeat aufgehübscht - dennoch bleibt der rote Faden eindeutig zu erkennen und die Tracks versprühen weiterhin die Aura ihrer Zeit.
I know you can feel it.

Tracklist:
1958 Peggy Lou – Fever (Stavroz Remix) 
1961 Nina Simone – Sinnerman (Sharam Jey & Jon Sine Edit)
1964 Simon & Garfunkel – Sound of Silence  (Vijay Sofia Zlatko Radio Edit)

1967 The Doors – The End  (Haugli Edit)

1970 Deep Purple – Child in Time (Mente Orgánica Edit)
1970 Black Sabbath – Planet Caravan (Lev Tatarov Edit)
1971 America – Horse with no Name (Tom Bug Edit)
1972 Stealers Wheel – Stuck in the middle with you (Nhii Live Remix)
1972 David Bowie – Starman (Matijas Coscmic Jive)
1973 Puhdys – Geh zur ihr (M.Rux Edit)
1974 Dolly Parton – Jolene (Todd Terrje Remix)
1977 David Dundas – Jeans on (Scheibosan Remix)
1978 The Police – Roxanne (David Hasert Remix)

Mira is that rare kind of DJ whose music can immediately transport you into her world - a midnight circus in Berlin, where time loses all definition and anything becomes possible. 

Born in East Germany to a renowned photographer and a classical musician, she began DJing in 1996 and quickly rose to prominence as part of the growing underground techno scene around Leipzig and Halle/Saale. Her dedication to her craft and natural talent swiftly paid off with a series of rapid successes, leading her to substantially shape the electronic music scene of Eastern Germany from that point on. 

In 2006, Mira moved to Berlin, Europe’s capital of electronic music, where she found her musical home at the legendary Bar25. Situated on the banks of the river Spree with parties that lasted into the middle of the week, Bar25 was the true embodiment of Berlin’s club scene in the 2000s. In the company of notable artists such as Nu, Acid Pauli, Feathered Sun and Christopher Schwarzwälder, a musical language was being formed that looked past the minimal trends of the time towards a more nuanced, organic musical language. 

It was from this here that Mira rose to fame throughout Europe and the world, as she suddenly became a defining representative of a distinctive sound that was going global. Deep and soulful whilst always maintaining a continuous, sensual groove, Mira’s sprawling, hypnotic sets became the soundtrack for many an endless night at Bar25, Kater Holzig and now, Kater Blau. 

The centrepiece of Mira’s residencies at these clubs has been her yearly birthday event ‘Katzen Tanzen auf’m Tisch’, which runs for three days straight every December. Curated by Mira from a selection of old friends and new faces, the series has hosted a multitude of  then-unknown artists who have now gone on to tour the globe. In 2020, Mira’s birthday series came in the form of a compilation for the first time, showcasing the spirit of her events over 43 original tracks. Also a year-round booker at Kater Blau and curator for the Kater-affiliated label Kiosk I.D., Mira’s fingerprints are all over the sound of the club.

In the studio, Mira often collaborates with her partner-in-crime Christopher Schwarzwälder, and the two of them have released a host of chart-topping singles. This partnership has since carried on to dancefloors globally, where their legendary back-to-back sets make for a perfect musical dialogue between the two artists, who share a deep understanding and love of sound.

Mira has been at the height of her game for the past twenty years, continuously shaping the sounds around her, and never ceasing to push inspiring new artists. As happy playing in a small underground club in East Germany in the 90s as she is playing to thousands of festival-goers at Burning Man - Mira is one of those artists of whom you can truly say that she’s doing it for the love of the music. 

Every time a new track by some undiscovered producer falls into her lap is a new moment to fall in love again with her craft, and spread that love with the tens of thousands who hear her play.
