Wir sind mega dankbar dafür, dass wir inmitten dieser wunderschönen Kulisse spielen durften! Es kommt doch eher seltener vor, dass wir erstmal 2 Stunden zum Gig raufwandern 😅
Vielen Dank an all die Klabauter, die das ermöglicht und mit uns gefeiert haben 🥰 An die mega süße Crew, die so viel Liebe für Musik und gute Vibes haben, und all die tanzwütigen Wanderer, die pünktlich zu Mittags schon auf dem Berg angekommen sind um von Anfang an mitzufeiern!
Magic moments ✨
Bussis!

💿 Lasst die Hüften schwingen 💿

🎵 Tala Berg liebt charmante Dark Tunes und fluffigen Bounce. Dabei sind ihre Sets stets wie sie selbst, warmherzig und immer für eine Umarmung zu haben. Auf der anderen Seite sind sie auch impulsiv, energiegeladen und zeitweise dark. Von Down- über Midtempo und Indie Dance bis hin zu Peaktime und dann wieder zurück zum treibenden Afterhoursound.
Tala Berg hat ihre Wurzeln in München und mittlerweile ist sie auch über die Landesgrenzen hinweg zu hören und zu sehen. Mit ihrem Feingefühl und Gespür für Crowd Control versetzt sie selbst steife Hüften in Schwingung und lässt die Hintern wackeln.

Dankeschön und maximale Unterhaltung <3

🎵 Dario Klein, jofunk & Max Härtel - Live @ Myzel im Friedenspark Köln (30. Mai 2025)🎵

Shortly after Arkadiusz arrived at Dario Klein's flat in cologne, he was taken along to a Myzel collective open-air event. Rumour had it that they would be jamming spontaneously. What happened next was simply beautiful and perfect for an open-air event in the middle of summer. The atmosphere was sunny and positive, with funky interludes and a great groove.

>>> INTERVIEW <<<

✔️ What are your musical influences? 

We are an improvisation project from Cologne, working with different instrumentalists: Sometimes in our Cologne studio, and sometimes on stage! All our sets are created completely in the moment. Nothing is planned or pre-produced, which allows us to move in different directions and react spontaneously to the dance floor.

We produce all the sounds with our instruments: Dario Klein plays the drum machine and electric bass, Jofunk plays the keys, and Max Härtel plays the saxophone and flute.

This set was created at a sunny open-air party organised by the Cologne Myzel Kollektiv, who hold events at various off-site locations in Cologne.


Although we have different musical backgrounds, this set showcases our shared passion for grooving. Influences from soul, funk, jazz and breakbeats can all be heard in the set. All in all, it's bouncy but emotional!


✔️ In your opinion, what makes a good afterhour?
The best after-hours events are always spontaneous! If spontaneous, then full power!


✔️ What thoughts would you like to share with us about your mix?
The most important idea we pursue with our live sets is to live in the moment. We don't plan everything down to the smallest detail because it's bound to go wrong! But we do it with a smile on our faces. The principle behind our sets is simple: Think less, just do it! Nothing can go wrong without a plan!

 
✔️ How did you feel about the gig?
We found this gig particularly exciting because the three of us had only met once before. Namely, at the dress rehearsal.

Location: CASTLE OF MYZEL  - Friedenspark / Cologne 
Recording Date: 30.05.

Dario Klein, jofunk & Max Härtel - Live Impro Special [ at ] Myzel Open Air [ Live-Special ]

All aboard the Dampfer 🛳️🦆 

This one was special – captaining the steamship at the Dampfer stage from 00:00 - 03:00, a goal I set back in 2023 when I first waddled through those infamous duck gates.

Got to sneak in four of my own originals, plus some unreleased heat from a few of my favourite local and international troublemakers. What a treat.

Big love to everyone who danced, raged, and shouted things at me I couldn’t hear over the foghorn.

Hope to return to the captain’s deck again soon.

Life jackets optional. Ducks mandatory.


SISYPHOS | DAMPFER STAGE | JULY 2025

🐈 It's been quite a few weeks since we set sail at @kater_blau with all of you. But let's come back for one more ride. In between pink water, one or two dolphines and of course where @soso_klein turned Acid Bogen upside down and gave us all a great time! 💥
🌊Thanks to everyone who was there. At this special occasion she arrived from the beautiful french riviera  to our beloved Spree and took us on a special kind of afternoon swim. Groovy sounds await you on the deck, with dark disco and indie dance beats. So pick up your floaties and goggles  for one more time and dive into this wonderful set!🤿🐬

💦What does true happiness mean to you, and have you found it yet?
Wow, that's a lifelong question! :D  For me, true happiness is when you live your life aligned with your desires and values. It's an ongoing journey, as our desires are constantly evolving. But what's certain is that every time I am DJ-ing, or I listen to music I like, I'm absolutely in a state of true happiness!"

❤️What song best captures your current mood?
It's summer, so I'd say the closing track of this Kater blau set perfectly captures my current mood: it's a sunny mashup by the French electro swing band LMZG - thank you @lamuzgueul for sharing this banger! <3 

⛵If you could perform at an event anywhere in the world, which one would it be, and why?
Definitely the Sonnendeck stage at Fusion Festival. It's one of my all-time favorite stages globally, and I'd be incredibly honored to play there one day.

As co-founder of Tomorrow's Monday Records (@tmrwsmdy), one half of @thelostboysza duo and creative director and curator of @pandorafestival , SHMIKESSS is building a community that bridges Cape Town’s underground with a global network - hosting transformative events and fusing music with cinema, photography, and visual art.

His rapid rise has already seen releases on Berlin’s iconic Katermukke and its sister label MUKKE, alongside South African imprints Back To Funk and Imprint, as well as his own Tomorrow’s Monday. With a growing catalogue of unreleased tracks tested exclusively in his live sets, SHMIKESSS is gearing up for multiple EPs and an album on the horizon.

Known for boundary-pushing performances, SHMIKESSS weaves storytelling, deep emotional resonance, and unconventional methods into his sets - including his innovative use of mushrooms to trigger sound through wired biofeedback frequency.
