Gijs from space

Der Haack & Gijs From Space — two Italo brothers from different mothers, diggin’ deep in the crates for like 20 years strong. Always on the hunt for that rare Italo and disco wax stamped with the Saie seal. From smooth disco grooves to raw electro and straight-up Italo heat.

Der Haack & Gijs From Space @ F.T.W.D. 09-05-'25

Rard Laudy, better known as DJ Loud-E, has been killing it for years digging up sick old disco records from ’77 to ’83. His stuff sounds way more like today’s house than that dusty old-school disco, packed with crazy synths and drum machines. He first dropped his edits through Berlin labels like Must Records and Magick Edit Allstars, before Stevie Cotey signed him to Bear Entertainment – home to big names like Theo Parrish and Todd Terje. Loud-E already shut down parties at top spots like Fabric in London and Avalon in LA.

Driving to the Party

10th of August 2015: it's been 10 years ago that we lost one of our best friends, Michaël. I’ve never felt worse than back then. 
 
Approximately 16 years ago, we started collecting and playing records with 6 friends.Talking about, listening to and playing records, was all we did in our spare time, that's how we discovered a mixtape of I.F.
 
Impressed, that's what we were by the music he mixed, so we started to look for all the the records he played in that mix. This is how our love for Italo Disco, Chicago House, Electro, Old-School Electro, Disco and all related music grew on us.
 
When we started DJ-ing at parties, we had to come up with our DJ-names. We didn’t want to pick names that where too serious, it just had to sounds catchy, that' s how Michaël came up with his alias, Michael Knight. Unfortunately, we weren’t that lucky to be able to enjoy his DJ-skills for a long time.
 
His impressive record collection was equally distributed among all friends.
With my share, I made a selection of 40 records and started recording a DJ-set in honor of Michaël Knight.
This results in a mix of roughly 20 records, combining all styles.
 
The way Michaël liked to mix it and listen to.....
 
Rest in peace, dear friend
