Home of my own mixes - predominantly jungle/hardcore with the odd bit of D&B, plus eclectic sample-digging, breaks and hip-hop, techno & electronica. 

Pre-2001, all mixes vinyl; Post-2016, all mixes digital (DJay 2); Post-2018, Ableton Live. Why? Why not?
I've got an old skool DJ's mentality, early influences ranging from Sublove, Ratty, Randall & Hype to Coldcut, DJ Juice, MK & Primo.  In the early 00s I turned my back on D&B, retired my turntables in favour of family/work commitments, and got into funk, soul, reggae and so on... a lot of this driven by curiosity around the sample roots of hardcore and jungle.  Forward another decade and an early mid-life crisis saw me messing around with virtual decks on my phone, and later acquiring a vinyl ripper, with one vision in mind: making mixes.
Although I'm partial to the odd DJay or vinyl mix when I get the chance, the progression into Ableton Live was a simple means to an end.  My ideas stretch further than the limitations of my physical collection and real-time mixing, and by sequencing I can pick, choose, chip away and structure mixes at my leisure. Which I do... a lot :)

Wait, there's more ... an absolute stack of classic golden era/old skool hip-hop/turntablism, jungle and d&b, hardcore, techno and house mixes retrieved from my dusty tape & CD archives.  This includes (by my reckoning) the most exhaustive collections of classic Full Cycle and Sublove Galaxy Radio shows, live Ruffneck Ting jungle tapes, loads of studio & compilation mixes, all manner of rave tapes, and so on. 
Use the playlist shortcuts (top of spotlight) to find your way around. 

Have fun, spread the love :)

Cio D´Or moves 
Her music arise from an idea, which she develops and threads through her own sounds:
Emotional, extravagant, charismatic, cinematic, sometimes poetic.
Her music strives towards “infinity” between origin and development. Here, timeless possibilities sounding out from the zeitgeist.
Her dj set´s and mixe´s filtering to track down deep and authentic musical developments amongst the mass of music and records without forgetting the gems of the past.
With the participation of musical sources, Cio D´Or mirrors the new in the old andvice versa, immersed in the deep grammar of music – leaving this again and allow the sound to live, to resonate now and on through times.
She is a dramatic advisor in her style techno and electronica.
Cio started 2001 as a resident dj in Munich´s former cult club Ultraschall.
Later she established herself consistently on national and international floor´s with her emotive, almost magical sets. She doesn´t play music, she lives it.
