Belgium born, Berlin based DJ Gratts has spent the best part of two decades lugging bags of excellent records around. First biting the bug for good-time house, techno and disco in the late 90s, he honed his craft as part of the We Play House gang throughout the following decade, and began pushing out of his homeland around the 10s.
In keeping the heart of the music in mind, Gratts ensures the feet are always engaged. Genres aren’t important, though: no matter what’s spinning, it’s all about the uplift, the heart and the freedom. 
Especially for the Tiella Sound series, he pressed play one morning and recorded a one-take vinyl mix at his musical home in Berlin-Kreuzberg, The Consulate.

Why'd you call me, Plantlife?

It's time for another round of OUFFFCAST ladies and gents. This time we're super happy to welcome our American bro - Alex Pastor!

A devotee and passionate selector of underground tunes hailing from Los Angeles via San Salvador, Alex enjoys journeying between the quirky side of house music, broken beats, and vivacious minimalism, creating an eloquent groove that entertains both body and mind. Apart from being a dedicated selector, he is also a resident for LA's MARBLE parties and the host of Little Creatures Radio (@littlecreaturescast) based in Bristol, UK.

In his contribution to OUFFFCAST, Alex showcases the depth of his musical knowledge and channels his passion for dope ass tunes in a way that leaves us inspired and eager to go Discogs hunting. The poddy has already given us immense listening pleasure. Hope you dig it too! Thanks for the music Alex!

OUFFFCAST 2.08 → Alex Pastor (Little Creatures / Los Angeles, US)

During the old school hip-hop years Rubba J started experimenting with a little drum machine and his guitar in search of funky grooves. His music, strongly influenced by funk: Prince, Roy Ayers, Herbie Hancock, Azymuth, progressively merged into deep house. He teamed up with Marius and started a new deep house formation called “Deepwater” which, along with Koenie developed into the producers collective Mayaku. As a solo artist, Rubba J released EPs on Brique Rouge, Wally’s Groove World among many others with his signature edgy, deep and tech sounds.
