MUCHA Rave 13.08.22

Dear Mucha Community,

We are thrilled to present our first artist for the MUCHA Mixtape Project: RACHIMZANOV. 

RACHIMZANOV is a young and talented graphic designer hailing from Cologne, also known as a tattoo artist, home barista, plant enthusiast, and DJ all bundled into one remarkable individual. It's rare to encounter someone with such a diverse set of talents and a passion to challenging always oneself. Our paths first crossed through a former, non-existent collective, evolving from a chance encounter into a lasting friend- and partnership.

RACHIMZANOV was the pioneer who established himself in the early days of MUCHA. He played a pivotal role in shaping the design concept for MUCHA from the very beginning. His commitment, ingenuity, and precision have consistently molded and professionalized our aesthetics to this day.

In recent years, we've let him grace our stages, adding yet another layer to his already impressive skill set – under his birthname RACHIMZANOV. Initially starting DJing in 2017, he found the courage in recent times to curate multi-genre sets that showcase the diverse spectrum of his evolving sound: 
Skillfully weaving through a kaleidoscope of bass music genres, he seamlessly blends House, Breakbeat, Acid Techno, Halftime/Trap, and DnB into a realm where deep basslines, filthy drops, and bouncy rhythms converge.

We are immensely grateful for the serendipitous meeting in the past and unbelievably proud to now call him a resident, artist, and, most importantly, our friend today. Here's to many more years with you  

xx Your MUCHA Fam

The second contribution to our MUCHA Multi-Genre Mixtape series is provided by Shacal. Even before many other amazing people discovered MUCHA, Shacal coincidentally joined our very first Rave in Cologne, sparking our interest from the beginning. Since that moment, we've eagerly followed Shacal's development as an artist and producer, just as he has observed our growth as a crew and event format.

Shacal's sets, characterized by driving percussions and hypnotic vocals, are truly unique and equally appreciated and beloved by the audience, especially with his residency at Devotion Cologne and participation in MUCHA Raves. As an artist and friend, we always experience him hyper-focused, with an incredible knowledge and experience in techno sounds and the art of DJing!

We thank Shacal for his dedication and for sharing his talent with us. He is always a warmly welcomed individual, both as an artist and a friend. Here's to the upcoming years and much more with you and all that is yet to come!

Greetings, MUCHA Family,

In this latest edition of our beloved MUCHA Mixtape series, we are excited to spotlight our artist Ü (@user-983328838).
Our journey with Ü began within the educational surroundings of the Audio Engineering studies, where his abilities and professionalism quickly set him apart. A DJ and producer of considerable repute with an affinity for Dubstep, Ü has graced our events, taking on both the challenging opening and closing sets – slots known among DJs as the ultimate tests of one’s ability to connect with and captivate an audience. And captivate he did, leaving us mesmerized with his abstract sounds paired with flowing breakbeats and brutal basses.

We are deeply thankful to have crossed paths with Ü, whose contributions have elevated our events and left an indelible mark on our hearts and ears. Most of the tracks in this Mixtape Series are self produced by Ü himself!

With immense appreciation and anticipation for what the future holds,

Hasta Luego,
Your MUCHA Crew

Ü - MUCHA Mixtape Vol. 3

Dear MUCHA Family,

We're excited to present the fourth edition of our cherished MUCHA Mixtape series, this time featuring the exceptionally talented Aaro, a distinguished figure in the electronic music scene.

From Egypt to Germany, Aaro's path is one of dedication and profound passion for music. As a non-binary Egyptian DJ, music producer, and co-founder of @adhd_records, Aaro has been crafting their distinct space in the music world since 2011. Our first encounter with Aaro in 2022 left us captivated by their seamless mixing skills, elevating the energy of the dance floor with their dynamic and evolving mixes. Since then, Aaro has become a staple in our lineup, consistently thrilling the MUCHA crowd at our events.

Aaro's production work is a showcase of their artistic breadth. Their latest single, “Skinny Human,” merges breakbeats with eery and soothing vocals, creating a compelling track that leaves listeners craving more. This mixtape acts as a mirror to Aaro's current mood and creative explorations. 

We eagerly await the next opportunity to join together on the dance floor.

Hasta Luego,
Your MUCHA Crew

Get ready for the latest gem in our Mixtape series: Volume 5, this time featuring Cloe Zwei! After moving from Seoul to Cologne in 2019, Cloe quickly found her place in the vibrant Cologne party scene, discovering a new community. Her artist name, Cloe Zwei, reflects her personal transformation: not only discovering a new version of herself as a DJ but also embracing the queerness she had long kept hidden.

Cloe spun her first set for us a year ago and has since supported us with her warm and loving nature. Her music, a profound mix of various techno sub-genres from industrial to minimal, enriched with elements of trance, captivates everyone.

In this mixtape, Cloe presents tracks that not only invite you to dance but also tell a deeper story. Get ready to dive into Cloe's unique musical world, which is as complex as it is compelling.

We're incredibly grateful to have Cloe in our MUCHA family and look forward to seeing how she continues to share her unique musical perspective with us and the world.

Don't miss this special edition of our mixtape, celebrating Cloe's impressive musical journey.
