It's almost a tradition that we play a fusion gig together with our dearest friend rumo on the sitar. When we jammed together for the first time five years ago, we realized right away that we can discover new musical worlds together. Over the years our sets have been influenced by the sound of the sitar from time to time. Not least that most of our tracks are written in d minor. 
Anyway, we hope you enjoy our joint fusion set.

What an unforgettable moment. Dark, deep and dirty <3 
After a year of waiting I had the pleasure of returning to my beloved Zugvøgel Festival with a new name and new sound. 
After two weeks of building the floor, I couldn't have been happier to destroy it again with the best crowd imaginable. 
Special thanks to Tony Casanova and Horst Haller for your kind words after the set.

Playing Fusion has always been a dream since I started making electronic music ten years ago. I can't say anything else than thank you to MaKa for inviting me to this b2b, thank you to the whole Extravaganza crew for building this amazing floor and just being so nice and heartwarming, and lastly but foremost thank you to all our friends standing in the first row, supporting us by smiling on us as wide as they could. <3<3<3

Due to public demand it is finally time to share this with you guys: we are proud to present to you our Set from Sisyphos! 🫨

It is no secret that we both (Andi and Philipp) love to play afterhours gigs! It gives us the chance to reconnect to genres that slided in the background in public and for us. That’s why this set is certainly different in terms of style and groove - so we tried to spin some funky tunes!

DJing it during a magical morning in Kaschemme, this set is packed with soulful beats and infectious rhythms that will get you moving from sunrise to sunset. ☀️

Join us as we journey through the funky vibes and let the music transport you to a place of pure euphoria. Don’t miss out on this special moment captured in sound – hit play and let the funky beats take over! ✨

Thanks a lot Gerda for the invitation to your crazy funny birthday that made this possible! It was a truly special and insane morning! We loved every second! 

Also thanks to the sweetest Pulli&Chomba for getting us in touch.

Überhaupt & Außerdem @ Sisyphos Kaschemme Closing

Yes, that’s our daughter laughing at the very beginning of this set. It’s a lovely memory shared by my wife and me, and I wanted to surprise her. We got married just the day before, right next to FUSION; it was basically our honeymoon. The look on her face made me fall in love with her all over again.

I deeply believe that DJing must be personal. The listener wants to engage with the essence of the artist, allowing a flow of energy that transcends mere beats and musical taste.

Well, this is my musical heartbeat, this is me. Some of these songs and ideas have accompanied me for years, listened to over and over, waiting for the right moment to be played. I would’ve cried my eyes out if I hadn’t been so occupied with mixing.

I am deeply grateful to @firespaceverein, who invited me again to play at their beautiful Firespace.

Thank you to @"Tiefe Wasser Berlin" for providing this beautiful edit of a song right at the beginning.

And lastly, thank you to my wife, my family, and my friends who have supported me all these years and never stopped believing in me. You are truly the best.

DISTELFINK @ FUSION FIRESPACE 2024

Was einst mit langen Kneipenabenden in Neukölln begann, mündete mittlerweile in unserem zweiten Fusion-Liveset. Wir sagen Danke Seebühne & Nixe für die Einladung!

I went to Fusion Festival and was inspired by the electronic music I discovered there, so I bought new music & recorded this set <3

Fusion! Sommer! Sonne!
Was kann es schöneres geben? Ich durfte dieses Jahr bei der Fusion auf dem Seebühnen Floor meiner geliebten Crew zwei Stunden am Nachmittag spielen. Es hat mir unglaublich viel Spaß gemacht. Vielen Vielen Dank an Alle, die das möglich gemacht haben. Ich war glaube ich noch nie so aufgeregt vor einem Set und habe mich auch noch nie so lange drauf vorbereitet. 
Vielen Dank an Alle, die da waren. Ob alte Weggefährt*innen oder Leute, die einfach dazugekommen sind. Ich war am Ende einfach nur sprachlos und dankbar für so viele positive Rückmeldungen. 
Vielen Dank auch an den Kulturkosmos für dieses geile Festival und den Glauben an eine Utopie!
Ich bin ganz beseelt.
