Nikita von Tiraspol the enigmatic DJ, producer and visionary behind Kontrapunkt has formed a distinct sonic identity from the heart of Leipzig, Cologne and Vilnius’s underground. For years, Nikita shaped his ear as a vinyl pressing engineer at r.a.n.d. muzik, a position that immersed him daily in the cutting edge of unreleased music. This job lead to a deeper passion and in 2017 Kontrapunkt was born - a label defying boundaries, weaving through a spectrum of genres from the industrial cadence of techno to the freewheeling spirit of house, tribal rhythms, trance and ambient and breakbeat.

Nikita's own productions reflect this restless exploration, a journey through sound. His discography includes the deeply introspective album Entscheidungen via mystictrax, the evocative album Iki Pasimatymo! released with Noorden, a trippy 3step dance floor remix for MARIA Die RUHE, Ibiza-Mykonos-Carribean made-for beach vibe track Daddy I Want To Go To Bali and a club version of Peperu with Ugandan singer Amah Dripper. Nikita von Tiraspol’s sets are rooted in the genres house, techno and afro house, while seamlessly incorporating touches from all over the world when the moment calls for it. This versatility allows him to adapt to different environments while maintaining a clear, compelling sonic narrative.

Moskalus was born and currently resides in Ostrava, Czech Republic. He started his musical journey back in 2007 when he created his first YouTube channel where he would upload music from various artists to help them promote their music. With his second channel, he started doing music videos because he wanted to be a part of the scene, not only as a regular uploader, but as someone who wanted to express his own feelings. In November 2014, he had his first big break by making the music video for Bambounou's track "Onto This" which was released on 50 Weapons. After that, he gained a greater audience that helped him to work with labels such as: Lobster Theremin, Shall Not Fade, Die Orakel, Pinkman and Lehult. He has also had the opportunity to work with artists such as: Baltra, Fjaak, J. Albert and Benedikt Frey. 

After years of listening to music and making videos for such artists, Moskalus has developed a wide-ranging taste. In his DJ sets you can expect to hear anything from disco to house, techno, UK Garage or dubstep from the golden era.

https://soundcloud.com/ffan: I recently played at Club Daphnia in Osaka this past April, and it was such a fun experience. I shared the night with many underground DJs from across Japan, and it was one of those rare moments where I could fully express my own style while playing abroad. This mix is a re-recording based on the tracks I played that night, a slightly more underground version that showcases my trippy, genre-blending sound.
