A true alumn of the defining event of his generation, Johannes Retschke’s musical leanings came into full bloom as the wall of Berlin came crumbling down. Born into an artistic family in the former GDR, his passion for electronic music suddenly found itself nurtured by a plethora of new locations, connections and records - radically different circumstances to what his ilk was used to, consequently overwhelming many an aspiring artist.

Johannes, on the other hand, was thrilled to soak in these new influences, becoming an avid listener to electronic music broadcasts from post-wall Berlin’s famously independent radio stations like Radio Fritz - which quite naturally led to his own involvement with wonky turntables and enthused crowds. After quickly becoming top-tier talent for Berlin’s underground bookers, our hero moved to Cologne to further his understanding of advanced floor sonics.

Again, he had no trouble forging his path in yet another unfamiliar environment and found a new home as resident DJ for Cologne’s much-acclaimed Pulstar party series, performing alongside famed guest acts on a regular basis. This certainly triggered enough confidence to also try his hand at producing, resulting in strong releases on imprints such as Vekton Musik. Nowadays, you can find Johannes regularly spinning tunes for clubs like Cologne’s infamous Gewölbe, Odonien or Heinz Gaul, still looking for that perfect beat to push that funky envelope.

GOME | Snackwax rec.
DJ and producer team from Hamburg and their very own record label. 
Hardware Only.
Booking/Management/PR: aga@ensoul.de

Somewhere between the sweat of a packed club and the warm crackle of an old house record, you’ll find GOME.
The Hamburg-based duo have been carving out their own space in electronic music – part DJs, part live performers, part label heads, part cooking show hosts (more on that later). Their sound is rough around the edges in the best way possible: raw, groove-heavy, energetic House infused with Funk, Soul, Disco, and a bit of punk energy.

Since their early releases on Toy Tonics, GOME have been steadily building momentum. 2023 was a turning point: they launched their own label, snackwax, and dropped “Tell Me” and “Get My Love”, two club anthems that caught fire, with heavy support from some of the biggest DJ names around. “Tell Me” even made it to #1 on Beatport’s “Best of Hype 2024 House” chart. Not bad for two guys who still prefer jamming in their studio over chasing algorithms. This put them firmly on the international house circuit, with appearances at legendary clubs such as Berghain (DE), Robert Johnson (DE), Shelter (NL), Fünk (MX), D-Edge (BR), and many more, as well as standout performances at some of the coolest and high-profile festivals.

Besides playing DJ sets, GOME love performing live. And their live performances are a rare treat – strictly hardware, no laptops. Think hands on drum machines, live synth lines, and even vocals sung by themselves that feel like they could fall apart at any moment (but never do). It’s unpredictable, high-energy, and the kind of set that makes you forget about your phone. They bring the same spontaneity to their DJ sets, blending deep cuts, 90s-influenced sounds, and modern grooves into something fresh and unpolished in the best way. Their musical background runs deep – from bass to guitar to piano – and that knowledge translates directly into their productions.

Beyond the club, GOME have been building something bigger. Their legendary event series, “GOME + The Gang”, has been hosting like-minded artists such as Cinthie, Narciss, Lovefoxy, Cromby, Elkka, and Paula Tape, to name just a few. GOME + The Gang nights are all about keeping the dancefloor alive and sweaty, built for true house music aficionados chasing that authentic vibe.

And ever wondered what your favourite house tracks taste like? Then check out the “GOME cook Songs” video series, where they turn iconic tracks into creative dishes, serving up flavours inspired by legendary tunes – with millions of views already. GOME take cooking just as seriously as their music; the duo is just as skilled in the kitchen as they are behind the decks and in the studio.

GOME do it all – running their own club nights, managing a successful label, rocking clubs and festivals, spending endless hours in the studio crafting new music, collaborating with other musicians – and even producing their own cooking videos. Because why not? It’s all part of the same DIY, no-rules mentality that drives everything they do. So, if you get the chance to catch them – whether it’s a DJ set, a live act, or a DJ/live hybrid show – don’t miss it. If you love real house music, you won’t regret it.

Being born in the ’90s has undoubtedly influenced my musical style. I thrive on exploring diverse subgenres of house music, always aiming to create immersive and dynamic experiences for my audience.

My sound is firmly rooted in house, seamlessly blending groovy disco beats, Detroit-inspired vibes, old school tech house, and modern, forward-thinking grooves. In my sets I mix rare vinyl gems with digital treasures, offering a journey through the rich spectrum of electronic music.

I‘m currently based between Berlin and Vienna.
