Our fifth podcast is by non-other than Geoff Wichmann.

He started in Belgium playing house at the age of 16, has been in the world of electronic music for 20 years and ran his own record shop in the North of France.

Needless to say, we are very much looking forward to welcoming Geoff at our garden. ' Allez Geoff '!

Events / Record Label

EVENTS
Ojoo are intimate gatherings with dedicated DJ's playing whatever they like for a crowd where everyone can feel welcome.  A series of events bringing forward-thinking underground electronic music with a sincere passion for vinyl . We need our music to be challenging and innovative and hold a high appreciation for artistic individuality (as opposed to hypes or trends) with the utmost respect for the veteran artists who over the years continuously maintain a standard that we greatly appreciate. We need a connection between artist and dancer, so the small and intimate venues is where you will find us.

RECORD LABEL
The idea of creating a platform that supports artists we stand for would not be complete without an opportunity to share their music with the world. To offer this, we started with the record label to release music that we believe should be heard and shared for people to enjoy, clubbers to dance and DJ's to play. 

The passion for the original craft of spinning tunes, that certain pleasure in the effort when playing and a love for the classic physical format has led us to release on vinyl only.

In the summer of 2019 our first EP ‘Club Rotation’ by ‘Session 4000’ was released. The second one in October 2019 by ‘Gols’. His first EP is appropriately titled ‘Delay is Okay’ referring to the time it took before opting to release one of his productions.

GEOFF WICHMANN - BIO

A DJ for over 25 years, Geoff Wichmann possesses a striking blend of experience and childlike optimism in his approach to music. Like a therapist in practice, he facilitates the experience on the dancefloor, creating a space to evacuate the mind and nurture the self. Not one for self-promotion, he is beloved not only for his expertly crafted sets but also for his humility and dedication to the scene.

Geoff has been producing and playing minimal house long before the hype of the aughts. After running his own record shop outside of Lille in the late nineties, he returned to his birthplace of Brussels, where he has been a fixture in the local dance music community. It’s safe to say that if you’re a Brusseleir; you’ve enjoyed dancing to one of Geoff’s sets before (many of them, more likely). He continues to play regularly at venues like Fuse, C12, Zodiak and more. He is a resident at Ojoo Music in Ghent, the home of local Belgian talent flying under the radar, and his productions have surfaced on labels such as Lessizmore, Mindhouse & Rationalism.

Music is the wine that fills the cup of silence.
