DJ Resoul, Streetsoul Tribute Mix! DJ Resoul: "I grew up with the Hip Hop Sound of the 80'is. In 1989 British military Radio started the weekly BFBS Dance Show in Berlin, presented by Tim Westwood. It was an incredible Mix of Hip Hop, Swingbeat, 70's Rare Grooves an new British Soul. It was my strongest musical influence at the time. In the early 90ies I saw concerts of Incognito, The Brand New Heavies, Raw Stylus und many more in Berlin and also talked to a young UK DJ in 1990 by the name of Gilles Peterson, who played the fresh Talkin Loud sound from the turntables. This is my tribute live mix with the sound of that era to give you a taste of the timeless positive vibe of the time. Feel the Vibe! "

I discovered DJ Koco a few months ago, watched many hours of his DJ sets, and was so inspired that I created a DJ set in tribute and gratitude to him.

DJ Koco aka Shimokita is Japanese, blind in one eye, and plays exclusively on 7" which are small vinyl records, hard-to-get and challenging to work with.

His craft and technics are masterful and he can perform all the "turntablist" tricks in the book. You know, scratching and cutting from deck to deck and much more.

I appreciate that, but what i'm really inspired by, is his art, style, and musicality.

In one DJ set he weaves old school hip hop, Brazilian, Latin, Disco, Rap, House, Funk, Jazz,  Pop, and many other genres and styles.  It all flows seamlessly and naturally. 
He plays both well-known anthems and songs very few people know. Trying to Shazam his songs is an exercise in futility. 
Koco keeps an upbeat, energetic and happy vibe throughout his journeys. I love to see how much he enjoys his music. 

I was already an open-format DJ and included many different genres, but watching DJ koco and listening to his sets gave me even more inspiration and the reminder I can play anything i wish, as long as it fits the vibe.

I loved hip hop since the late 80s when I heard Eric B and Rakim's sampling of Israeli/Yemenite singer Ofra Haza, as well as "Rapper's Delight" and other songs.
I remember that more than anything, I loved the syncopated (not symmetric) rhythms, the beats and the samples.

Many people think "Hip Hop" is the same as gangsta rap, and always includes "rapping", vulgarities and such.
I never resonated or related to those themes because my life circumstances are different.

The kind of Hip Hop I love and play here is mostly instrumental and features jazz, soul, funk and lots of Brazilian and Latin samples.     
Nearly any Hip Hop song you can name probably includes a sample from an old record. Visit whosampled.com and find the origins of your favorite songs.

In the past I usually did long transitions between songs, but now I experiment with very short and quick transitions, sometimes as short as 8 beats.

I'm also inspired by Koco and DJ Nick Spinelli to play just the best parts of the songs - What Nick calls "Quick Mixing". 
On average, every song here is only 2 minutes long.

I included a few of the songs DJ Koco plays, as well as my own favorites:
A song from the first James Bond movie, Israeli Bossanova, 3 versions of "Rapper's Delight", Balkan Hip hop, a remix and a cover of a 80s and 90s anthems, a piece by my good friend Adrian Atma, who is a multi-instrumentalist and beatboxer, and an amazing melodic samba song which is a journey by itself.

I have hundreds of songs for the next journeys and I've already been dropping some of them in my Ecstatic Dance, Tropical Chillout and Party sets.

Watch the video of me playing this DJ set, including the view of my DJing program, so you can really see what i'm doing:

Thank you DJ Koco and I hope I can see you play live one day.

Paz E Futebol Mix By Jazzanova DJ Juergen V. Knoblauch

Here the full 3h Jazzanova DJ set by Alex Barck and Stefan Leisering, live recorded at Wedding Soul in Panke Berlin in Jan 2017. Many thanks to Alex, Stefan and Best Works! Enjoy listening!


JAZZANOVA

For almost twenty years the eclectic collective from Berlin has been busy producing, composing, arranging, remixing, djing and generally shaping our musical world – in the clubs, on the air, in the studio, live on stage, and with their label Sonar Kollektiv.

Their “very fertile musical world” (Time Out New York) “has dominated the jazz-dance and down-tempo scenes for the past few years, both with its own label and with countless remixes” (Phoenix New Times).

Spreading their sounds and ideas with inspired DJ sets, Jazzanova’s DJs were among the first DJs from Berlin in demand all around the world. Juergen von Knoblauch, Alex Barck and Claas Brieler broaden the music’s appeal as DJs, not only on tour through the best clubs and festivals around the world but also on their weekly Kaleidoskop radio show on Radio1.

5YRS WEDDING SOUL

Five years of WEDDING SOUL, we look back on so far 60 shows of this small big event series. The jubilee is now celebrated according to the mood, with a two-day program, with exquisite guests, representing what WEDDING SOUL is: a well thought-out mixture of soul and funk-inspired music culture, the roots of these in the back, the present and the future in view. Always danceable and audible, surprising, new, and yet as if there had never been anything other than a connection between heart, dance, and soul.
