Nil Son [at] Freunde Feiern // TBA Club Dresden (06.01.2017)

Originally from Istanbul, Turkey, Tuğçe Kurtiş(@tugce-kurtis) grew up with a love for music, especially music performance. At age 6, she joined the school choir and started singing. Since then, she performed in countless occasions in Turkey, the US, Brazil, Costa Rica and Paraguay. Tuğçe studied voice, ear training, jazz vocals, West-African drumming and singer & songwriter. She has collaborated as a singer, songwriter, and co-producer with Paraguayan musician & producer Santi on three albums. She has also released four singles. As the founder of the Kybele project(@kybelean), she aspires to develop opportunities for greater collaboration and broader inclusion of artists from around the world. Seriously, it is a must-follow channel, you won't regret it.

Fine, psychedelic, well-defined yet so adaptable, this 70th edition covers a lot of ground in relatively short time. The rhythms are soft and composition builds up slowly. She has created a mixtape which is a must for slowness explorers, never boring. What a great way to start the weekend! See you around peeps!

Sonar Kollektiv Radio 01! Juergen v. Knoblauch is opening our new radio show 📡, playing an eclectic mix of soul, jazz and electronic with special guest Hollis P Monroe (The Black 80s) warming up.

Sonar Kollektiv Radio 01 – Juergen von Knoblauch (Jazzanova) & Hollis P Monroe (The Black 80s)

The sound of '2020' is new jazz and old funk with an electronic city pace, brought to you by duo The Colours That Rise. Made up of multi-instrumentalists and producers Simeon Jones and Nathanael Williams, their '2020' EP is a confident guide through future sounds and past histories from a time yet to come. 

Created using analogue synths and acoustic instruments, the 4 track EP works as the score to a yet to be created animation. Nathanael's background is creating soundtracks for films, while Simeon plays with UK jazz prophets Yussef Kamaal and featured on Henry Wu’s ‘Negotiate’ 12”. 

'2020' is an experimental electronic voyage that emerges from the ambient and arrives on the dance floor.

LOVE THE NIGHT

Die Nacht – was macht sie nur mit uns? Sie gehört den Liebenden, den Tänzern, den Träumern und den Melancholikern. Unsere Gedanken fühlen sich größer an als am Tag und unsere Sorgen können ins Unermessliche wachsen. Alles sortiert sich neu sobald die dunkle Abendsonne langsam den Boden berührt. Leise Stimmen in uns werden laut und gleichzeitig fallen schwere Dinge wie Ziegelsteine von unseren Seelen. Wieso ist in der klaren, so wunderbar riechenden Dunkelheit unser Leben so spürbar anders?

Die Nacht bietet uns Schutz, umhüllt uns mit einer flauschigen Decke und umarmt uns in ihrer Weichheit. Sie schafft es, Ängste zu schüren und sie gleichzeitig zu lösen. Nachts philosophieren wir von unseren Sehnsüchten, Hoffnungen und dem, was in uns steckt. Wir sprechen von dem, was raus will. Und da ist viel.

Dom Servini has been filling dance floors since the early 1990s with his beautifully blended, open minded mix of music steeped in soul, jazz and funk. From the early days of his Brighton residency with DJ Snowboy, his infamous late 90s Mouseorgan club events, to a decade and a half DJing under the Wah Wah 45s banner, Dom has become something of a clubbing institution.

At a time when DJing is less about connecting with music lovers and more about branding, play counts and frequent flyer miles, Daniel W. Best’s approach is so straightforward that it’s almost groundbreaking: an egoless passion, a fine-tuned ear and most important, an open mind with good taste. Although he prefers to call himself a music activist rather than a DJ, Best has over two decades of experience behind the decks, getting crowds onto their feet whether he plays Jazz, Soul, Reggae, Rare Groove, Disco or House – sometimes all within the same set, always on vinyl.

every once in a while i have the pleasure to play at the beautiful Kater Schmaus Restaurant.
this is always something really special, because it's about great food, delicious wine and great music i never play in a club.
this selection is 90% vinyl....some rare stuff from the 50s, 60s,70s...lot of 7"s, lot of stuff i found in small record shops in south africa, egypt or somewhere else in the world.
i really love to play stuff like this from time to time and i hope you enjoy it as much as i do.
this is not a mix!

Rework by @ninze of @iorie s track "Drunk n High" of his new EP "Bulanık Aşk" that will be out on the 4th of December :)

We are searching for love without seeing what we already have. We are reaching out far instead of just following the path that leads through ourselves. So in the end it is finding some kind of love in the night and forgetting about it again in the morning, this is the "Bulanık Aşk".

Sonar Kollektiv Radio 08 – Beat Kollektiv

Fazer is the project of bassist and producer Martin Brugger (aka Occupanther), trumpeter Matthias Lindermayr, guitarist Paul Brändle as well as Simon Popp and Sebastian Wolfgruber (both drums) who all met while studying at the Academy for Music and Performing Arts in Munich.
Their unique sound is cut from a miscellaneous range of influences from west-african polyrhythm and classical indian music to dub-techno and post-rock.Hailing from Munich, a city rich with influential jazz labels like ECM, ACT or enja, the young musicians want to take their own path by defying genre boundaries while maintaining the tension and the immediacy of improvised music.

Coco Maria is a colorful lady from the north of Mexico shaking down the Berlin scene with her classy and funky record collection mainly from Colombia, Brazil and Peru. Her upbeat selection will at the very least put a smile on your face.

Stereoclip - It's About The Time EP out on Délicieuse Records.
Stream ☞ http://smarturl.it/ItsAboutTheTime

@stereoclip
@d-licieusemusique-records

Quel plaisir aujourd'hui de vous annoncer le début de notre collaboration avec le Bruxellois Max Merkpoel, alias Stereoclip. La Délicieuse vous offre aujourd'hui un premier EP pour ce mois d'Octobre avec au programme le titre 'It's About The Time' en version masterisée, mais également en exclusivité le titre 'Don't Trust Me'.

Merveilleusement bien produit, l'ensemble se veut propre et fidèle à l'atmosphère intimiste de la formation. De la douceur, de la personnalité et de la finesse qui nous ont depuis longtemps séduits et donné envie de démarrer cette collaboration. Vous retrouverez en effet sur les deux morceaux la sublime voix susurrée de la jeune Joséphine qui enveloppe à merveille les beats électro intimistes de Max et les riffs singuliers de Tom Goris. Le tout sonne à merveille à tout moment de la journée dans nos petites écoutilles contractées par nos casques vociférants.
Avec Stereoclip, la mélancolie devient joyeuse et l'on aime ces deux titres qui nous font voyager à chaque écoute. 

En bonus de cet EP, le remix d'Opprefish, récemment approché par Timid Records et Infiné Records. Le jeune parisien oppose ici rythme aux accents Faithlessiens, notes effilées de guitares et pianos. La construction réfléchie de ce morceau nous a définitivement séduits. Une ode au voyage et à la relaxation qui tombe à pic pour l'automne qui approche...

-------------------------

It's a pleasure to be announcing today the debut of our collaboration with Brussels local, Max Merkpoel, aka Stereoclip. The Délicieuse offers the first EP for October with the titled program 'It's About The Time' in mastered version, as well as the exclusive title 'Don't Trust Me'.

Beautifully produced, the ensemble is clean and true to the intimate atmosphere of it's formation. A softness, and finesse brings personality to his work, which gave us a strong desire to start this collaboration. On both pieces, the sublime voice of young Josephine can be found, which is wrapped within intimate electro beats by Max and singular riffs from Tom Goris. The unique riffs sound perfectly, suitable for listening at any time of day.
With Stereoclip, melancholy translates into pure joy. We love these two titles that take us to a new destination with each and every listen.

In 1995 I passed on a mix tape to Groove Academy (Giant Step) Marc Labelle at an outdoor stage that was rocking with DJ's Jazzy Nice, Chillfreeze + Groove Collective & Nappy G live. They soon took me on as a 3rd DJ in the weekly rotation of the legendary Giant Step parties. The club vibes were HOT! There was a mix of hip hop, jazz, funk, live instrumentation, paintings, tap dancers as well as a very funky & sexy dance floor! Needless to say, I was hooked & thanks to Marc, Maurice Bernstein & Jonathan Rudnick, I stayed in the Giant Step crew for many years after. We pushed the sounds from Acid Jazz/funk, Hip Hop/Trip Hop, House & Drum & Bass- all with live musicians taking it to another level. I've also had the opportunity to DJ at shows for Jazzmattazz, Tricky, K&D, St Germain, Pharcyde, Groove Collective, Massive Attack, Gil Scott Heron & all the greats who passed through NYC at that time. Here's the 1st mix-tape I did for Giant Step in 1995. It featured artwork by BLUSTER! #MixTapeDiaries with more mixes & stories continue on  www.mixcloud.com/Nickodemus   ENJOY & please share this moment in time!
