Follow your heart

A Darker Wave: - "Frederique has an amazing feel for sound dynamics and a great ear for building tracks. So melodic, so much feeling as he puts his mixes together. He's not afraid of quieter sounds, and contrasts those with louder parts and makes it work really well."

Excerpt -
The darker side of House, with the occasional smile. The music that I mix should grab me somehow, make me want to move my body, nod my head, tap my feet, at least engage me, or even make me dance. Most of it is in the bassline, and the harmony. I'm not looking for something new by definition, but I'm open for anything that's different. I'm a sucker for melancholy, darkness and mystery.

In the beginning there was Jack -
I have been DJing since the 90's. Learned it on vinyl, SL1200's and a Dateq LPM 7.2. All very straight forward gear for today's standard, but high quality stuff nevertheless. I embraced digital when it matured, went from an S4 to a DDJ-T1, and an S8 now, connected to a Yamaha A-S500 that drives my wonderful Monitor Audio RX2 speakers. I have no musical education or history.

Why -
I DJ for the fun, the love of the music. For the kicks. To unwind at the end of a hard working day. I've been recording mixes on a regular basis since mid 2015, uploading a mixes at least once a month on Soundcloud.

.1k Series Mixes -
Most of the music that I use in my sets comes from artists that I follow on Soundcloud and Beatport. Finding music like this does result in the best mixes to my ears, but it takes a lot of time. With a regular (no 925) daytime job, a wife and two daughters, time is sometimes scarce. To overcome this, I recently started what I call the ".1k Series". In this series, I mix selections from top-100 (".1k" .. 1/10th * 1000 = 100 - I know it should be written as k1, but the association with the fighting sport was too obvious for me) lists released by well known digital outlets. I scan through these lists and select those tracks that comply the first paragraph above. These series will generally produce more accessible-to-listen-to mixes and so they will likely attract the less experienced listeners.

Reminder Series Mixes -
There is so many good music today, and there is so many new music every day, that music is quickly forgotten. I truly think that's a shame, and I've been wanting to do something with this for a long time. These mixes are mostly made on the fly, where I select tracks that 'just fit' at that moment, and where track age is of no importance. This means that mixes in this series can contain tracks of any date, but usualy somewhere between 2008 and current time.

Dark Series Mixes -
The darker sounds of House are my favorite by far. In these series of mixes I focus on those sounds exclusively.

You -
If you decide to listen to one of my mixes here, have a little patience. Don't skip through the mixes. Put one on, and let it work you(r) (mind). Download any mix on this page in high quality 320kbps MP3 format. All mixes should be downloadable - if they're not, let me know and I'll fix it.

Cologne based Producer and DJ Marten Sundberg [Kompakt] creates that modern, funky and  deep Sound including a lot of romantic and soul. Being brought up on a wide influence of different genre sounds and a talent for playing the guitar, musicality is no stranger to Marten and this shows not just in his productions, but also in his DJ sets too.  

Review from earmilk.com:
"Quite often you would associate techno music with pounding kick drums, high tempos and sweat adorned nightclub walls. However, this latest release from Marten Sundberg on Luis Junior's label, Mooseekaa, is rather refreshing.

Hailing from Germany, there is no doubt a deeply rooted appreciation for all things techno embedded somewhere in Marten Sundberg's genetic code. However, the aptly titled Fear of War may well be a peaceful protest against the more aggressive sounds that can often swarm the genre. Title track "Fear of War" charms you in an ever-so-slightly sinister way. Its rich percussion layers the track throughout while deep growls reminiscent of household names such as Ten Walls and Jonas Rathsman create a dark, brooding and club-friendly atmosphere. Second track of the release "Fata Morgana" is all about the beautiful vocal. When you bare in mind that Fata Morgana, in its literal sense, is a type of mirage, every element of production slots into place. The pulsing body of the track is the beating sun while the vocal shimmers in the distance. 

With crisp production from start to finish and creativity in abundance, Marten Sundberg is an artist to keep both eyes and ears on. You can purchase the exclusive release right now from Beatport."
