Finally a new DJ mix:
This is 90% the selection played at Outro Lado on Thursday afternoon at Waking Life 2022. Thanks to the fantastic crowd for the open-mindedness and the energetic dancing. Also much appreciated the various personal feedback!
You can do me a favour and listen to it in full without skipping at least once. I feel it's quite a trip.

Lastly thanks to the charismatic organisers and the Giegling crew for the huge effort in realising this festival and keeping the spirit alive.

Big hugs, MP

Inspired by – and dedicated to – Malek and Leticia ♥️♥️

Every time I consider to finally step down from the DJ booth with a bold statement another opportunity arises with a high promise to become the chance for an even bolder statement. And her I am, continuing.

So, what to play this time? One recent night gave me the inspiration: a music lovers' trio (me included) hanging at a friend's place while tripping smoothly on mushrooms (me excluded) was wondering which music would be the appropriate accompaniment.

I proposed my "Psychedelic Soul" set (it's here on my SC page) which I believe belongs to the most flawless and fluid mixes I ever managed to conduct. Somehow the flow happened almost by itself here, plus: "surrounded by nature, outdoors vibes and the heavy, monsoon-like rain must have been a great inspiration". So why not get this spirit back into the club, surrounded by a Get Perlonized nature, family vibes, and a heavy monsoon-like love for music! Consequently, back home I delved into the shelves of club psychedelia that had remained untouched and dusty for quite a while.

At Zenner Club, I was very moved when quite a few people in the crowd told me that they had only come to hear me play and that my performance was the one they've been tripping to in the most pleasurable manner. Which confirms me that it is advisable never to follow a safe path in favour of always looking for an adventurous music journey (in this case with the echo of a mushroom feel). The extra fun part of the mission was: 30% of the tracks I mixed I had never played before.

These experiences keep me continuing while still looking for the ultimate boldest statement to step down from the DJ booth. It seems it didn't happen, not even this time.

Mixed + recorded live at "Get Perlonized", Zenner Club, Berlin, 04.10.24

Tornado Wallace at Polifonic Festival Puglia 2024 - Sunrise Stage

If Marie is not in the DJ booth spinning records, you most likely find her on the floor. Though highly respected by her fellow jockeys for her mixing style and impeccable skill at that, she's a fan first and a club kid at heart - which seems to be a major reason for her ability to immediately connect with different kinds of crowds in various settings. As a DJ, Marie is known for her dynamic and engaging sets, which seamlessly blend together different styles of house music. Her performances have taken her to some of the most prestigious festivals, including FUSION, GARBICZ or NACHTIVILLE and Clubs like Frankfurt's ROBERT JOHNSON, Hamburg's PUDEL or Berlin's HEIDEGLÜHEN, to name just a few.

From an 8-year-old asking for a drum machine and Atari 500 to a globally respected artist, Melon’s path was always music. A true DJ’s DJ, he’s held residencies and played at iconic venues like Trouw, Fabric, Panorama Bar, Robert Johnson, and Heideglühen, driven purely by his skill behind the decks.

Known for his deep record collection and signature groove, Melon blends house music’s many shades with seamless mastery. Dubbed “The Don” or the "Larry Levan of Amsterdam", he’s released on top labels like Innervisions, Rekids, and Rush Hour, alongside his own imprints Ratio?music and Raw Meat. His music earns playtime from legends like Ricardo Villalobos, Doc Martin, and Seth Troxler, proving his timeless influence on the scene.
