Introduce yourself? Preferred pronouns? Where do you currently reside? 1 fun fact about yourself? 

Hi i’m Gigi — he/his — Austin, TX — I was a childhood ice hockey star

How is everything going with you right now?

I have been fortunate enough to be well.. been using this year off from work to dive into a practice and learn some discipline.

How did you get your dj name?

I got it from my partner, Mimi — she flipped my original g-name into gigi & it stuck. I never liked my birth name much anyway + it’s cute to match.

Who currently inspires your music-wise?

ry, tito fuego/mister water wet, charles, bobby, nueen, boundary, jel, purelink, pascäal, ian kim judd, jung dj, shiner, downstairs j, hysterical love project,  perila, oli/px, thurlow joyce+ many more.. so many friends exploring inspiring places these days

If you had to describe yourself as a flower,which one would it be and why? 

Mimi says “frost flowers because they’re ephemeral”

Favorite weird drug/mind altering experience?

Sensory deprivation tank before the rave at Shirley’s Temple (r.i.p.)
What was your first gig? How did it go? 

A show put together by Ben Aqua at an upstairs club on downtown Congress that I don’t recall. I was 18 & had only started making music on ableton a few months prior, and played a live set that mostly consisted of pressing play on a 30 min composed production mix with a little knob twiddling & dj drop triggering. considering that, I’d say it went pretty well

What would you like to see in the future for the dance community?

I think it’s obvious, but increased representation without tokenism. also, turn away from the dj & look at your fellow dancers.

Any cool releases upcoming for Gi Gi this year? 

I don’t want to speak too soon, but I do have a couple of records in the pipeline with quiet time & index, both of which I’m very excited about. working on some more uptempo material as kept that should be seeing the light of day soon as well.

Round two of introducing the hosts :-) 

Listen back to Pancake 008 with SK Libra. This stunning atmospheric set was recorded well over 2 years ago, when this show was still nothing but an idea. Now, it's very much alive (have we already mentioned how *good* it is to be back??) and finally having it on the airwaves felt super special.
Listen back and let this extended set take you on a journey. Stay till the end for a cute interview between the hosts <3

Pancake 008 - SK Libra [Extended Set + Interview]

INEN KÄMPFERISCHEN 8. MÄRZ!

Zu dieser sehr besonderen Folge ist eine sehr besondere Person Gäst:in der Vomens Bar digitale. Diese Person spricht über das Schreiben und den Literaturbetrieb als Insitution. Wir sprechen über Erfolg und Ablehnung in einem System, das Erfolg scheinbar exponentiell denkt, das Arbeit fetischisiert und Community Care genauso wie Selbstfürsorge entwertet.

Wie ist es als FLINTA Person selbstständig zu sein? Aktivistisch zu sein? Zu schreiben oder Literatur produzierende Person zu sein?

Die Person erzählt von Ängsten und Selbstzweifeln, dem Imposter-Syndrom in einer patriarchalen Leistungsgesellschaft, die uns zu Konkurrent:innen macht, Missgunst und Neid schürt.

Und wir sprechen über Klarheit und Sucht.

Habt ihr es vielleicht schon erraten?

Gäst:in ist Autor:in, Podcaster:in und Journalist:in Svenja Gräfen.

„In the digital age of swipes and singlehood, the quest to meet that special someone can be like searching for a rare vinyl in a sea of streaming. But sometimes, the universe aligns, and you find that one person who makes your heart skip a beat.
My latest hip-hop mixtape is a sonic journey through my emotions, a musical canvas where I channeled my feelings when I had a crush on a remarkable girl. Featuring tracks from incredible artists like Isaiah Rashad, Saba, and more, it’s a blend of new-gen beats and poetic lyrics that perfectly encapsulate the story of my heart.
With each track, I poured my heart and soul into the mix, letting the music speak the words I couldn’t. It’s a tapestry of emotions, from the excitement of that first glance to the late-night thoughts that couldn’t escape my mind.
So, dive into the rhythm, feel the vibes, and let the melodies take you on a journey of love, longing, and everything in between. This mix is not just a collection of songs; it’s a piece of my heart, a testament to the magic of music and the power of a crush.“

Hi Pancake Peeps 🥞
The days are getting shorter and we are getting in the mood for cozy music listening Sundays again.
We will be back with our next episode this Sunday, Sept 15 on @sphere.radio from 6-7pm.
As always, a great guest will be delivering an hour of what they normally don’t get to play.

Hailing from Hannover, the music producer and DJ Luise has been an avid vinyl collector since 2012. While her style is usually mostly focused around (90s) house music, for our May edition, she is blessing us with an hour of chill future jazz.

Pancake Enorme - Pancake 011 - Luise - 19.05.2024

Louis EMP - originally from Munich, now based in Augsburg - is one of the co-founders of the party series PERRAS. He is a resident DJ of the queer club night Garry Klein, which is taking place regularly at Rote Sonne. Shaped through New Wave, Krautrock and Trip Hop influences in his childhood, Louis‘ main focus lies on showcasing the psychedelic, trippy and timeless facets of electronic music. Without being attached to a single genre or pace, his sets are the outcome of passionate music digging.
In clubs he usually contributes interesting mixtures of Progressive, Tech- and Tribal-House, sprinkled with celestial layers of Ambient, Dub and Acid. Louis EMP constantly strives for the development of extraordinary atmospheres and surprise moments. While always being in exchange with audiences, his distinct sense for the right energy sends listeners on a journey between hypnosis and ecstatic frenzy.
For this "Pancake Enorme" mix though Louis selected tracks that he couldn't play out in clubs so far but has an interest in nonetheless. The result is a fast paced and euphoric journey suited for listening in the car or on long train rides. Also it's his first attempt ever at combining Breaks, IDM and Garage-ish tunes – most of them containing Ambient and some Dubby elements – to a homogenous yet diverse mixtape while still containing a dynamic suspense curve. His primary goal was to create a fun and trippy set – sprinkled with delicious twists & turns – which puts his interest in the music he typically plays at clubs in a new context. Endschoii!
(The mix was recorded in May 2023)

sound collage & more, this set starts both cassette and digital recordings made in the surroundings of crisálida. later on, you can find a temptation to dialogue between these and tracks crisálida feels in touch with; as she tries to communicate and escalate her frozen wings through languages already taken. closing off with twin peaks' magic, crisálida finds her way asleep again.

Main Ingredient #43 - Blats - Bhangra Force on @sphere radio

Today, we use Bhangra as our Main Ingredient! 

@blatsss says: My fascination with Bhangra, especially the UK hybrid version, has been with me for a while now. It all began when I discovered Bindu on Multitone and the Love 2 Love trilogy on Audiorec.

The rhythmic beats, often driven by the dhol and combined with elements of hip-hop and house, really resonate with me.

Sometimes, it can feel a bit much, but if you take the journey, it all makes sense.
