Hello! How are you? I would love to have the chance to record a set for your network :)

Step through a curtain of sensual velvet into our seductive circus. In this wonderous world, twisted roles prevail. Tigers force their tamers through fire rings. The audience squirts at clowns from fake flowers. Wild shaggers pull magicians out of their hats. Rope dancers tie each other up and sword swallowers swallow… well you get the idea.

Thank you for this most amazing, communal, lovely start into the new year <3

Feed. Your Head Guest Mix: Morphi

Peak time at OXI. High bpm (for me at least). Sometimes flowy and progressive, sometimes trashy and punchy, with my own productions dotted through and getting increasingly emotional in the second half.

Some of that emotion is easy to explain. This night was a fundraiser for the family of Lea Rose (aka Radical Softness) after their untimely departure, and at the halfway point you'll hear a track featuring their voice called "I am Emotional".

Live at OXInacht (1st March 2024)

▌I What’s your history with music in general and DJ-ing especially?
Since moving away from Canada at 20 years old, living in changing places (Asia, then Europe), dance floors have always been a constant in my adulthood. I’ve even been lucky enough to turn my passion for music and curiosity about the diverse characters of nightlife into professional opportunities, as a journalist – in Bangkok, I had a nightlife column for a major news website interviewing DJs, promoters and performers. In Berlin I’ve reported on diverse aspects of the local scene for international media from Lonely Planet to The Guardian and USA Today.

That also brought me to a special connection to United We Stream in 2020 – I wrote about the platform in its earliest days for The Guardian and Thrillist, story about the creativity and perseverance of Berlin’s club scene despite the pandemic shutdown – a story I am very pleased I could help share to the world.

During the pandemic, and time spent on a Thai island in a home frequented by touring DJs with no events but plenty of house parties, I was able to watch, learn, practice and really take the leap to translating my love of storytelling to production software and being on the decks.

▌II How would you describe your style?
I describe my sound as a ‘Dreamcatcher of Disco and House’ – my aim is for my music to feel familiar, fresh… and of course, feel good.

With high energy and positivity, I seek to appeal to the free spirits and old souls within us all. I believe that nostalgia is one of the most powerful forces in music, and though we often see samples misused and abused these days, we can all remember times when a certain lyric or melody connected us to beautiful past memories, different times and places. For me, nostalgia can mean digging for soul grooves, Motown samples, 90s vinyl tributing earlier sounds – in this way, I want my music to be a trip down memory lane that’s always intentional, and pay respect to dance music’s roots in amplifying lesser-heard voices.

In short, my sound mostly spans worlds of disco, house (especially the early 90s), and when it comes to newer music, a special emphasis on producers who share unique perspectives with their music and provide diverse representation – for example, underground dance music from Asian and diaspora producers, Japanese house, etc.


▌III How did you prepare this mix and what was your main inspiration?
Lately, I’m obsessed with the sounds of 90s disco house – in this mix, you'll find a lot of that, and hopefully, feel that sweet disco influence bridged to 90s house music laced with piano and synths.

This mix aims to evoke nostalgia on different levels – bouncy 90s club energy and excitement inspired by earlier times. For me, the authentic feel of 90s vinyl and production with disco grooves is something that just can’t be replicated!

This mix also resonates with me especially as a bridge between me and my dad. Everything I know and love about music has been passed down to me by him. Back in the 70s, he had a perm and danced in platform shoes. Playing tracks we always listened to together helps me remember his spirit carries on. He passed away in 2022.

We offer artists a platform to reach you far from the club scene - connected day and night.

J U S T • E T I E N N E  [@just-etienne, Magdeburg | GER] is a DJ and club owner with over 26 years in the game, has carved a niche in the electronic music scene with his deep affinity for house music. His journey began amidst the trance and techno wave of the late '90s, quickly transitioning to HOUSE music, where he found his true passion. Beyond that, he ventures into the eclectic with his "Funmix" series on SoundCloud, blending genres from trap to drum 'n' bass, showcasing his versatility and innovative spirit.
With his subtle presence, he communicates his love for music through carefully curated sets and a sneaky smirk once in a while. He challenges the monotony of single-genre sets with his signature style of dynamic transitions and diverse sounds. He creates moments of unexpected joy to keep the dance floor alive and unpredictable.

With the opening of the Kunstkantine in 2001, he introducing a varied music palette to Magdeburg's then hip-hop and R'n'B-dominated nightlife. 

Just Etienne operates his club, Kunstkantine & Datsche, with immense passion and dedication, investing his whole life into creating a space that embodies the essence of musical and cultural diversity. "This Must Be the Place" welcomes you at the entrance and it perfectly encapsulates the paradise he strives to offer— a haven where everyone feels welcome and at home. 

It’s obvious, we’re in love with him! Cheers to you! ❤
