So lässt sich Stan’s Sound wohl am ehesten beschreiben.
Abseits von kurzlebigen Trends spielt er sich gerne mit ausdauernden Sets unter die Haut seiner Zuhörer und schafft eben jene magischen Momente auf dem Floor zu zaubern, die Clubabende oder Festivals zu etwas Besonderem machen.
 
Ob als Resident der Berliner Veranstaltungsreihe “Betriebsfeier”, oder als Artist in den Clubs “KaterBlau”, dem “Sisyphos” oder diverser Festivals.
Stan lädt man sich und seinen Gästen immer gern hinter die Decks ein.
 
Warum? Akustische Empathie! 
Stan’s außergewöhnliche Fähigkeit die Stimmung des Moments zu verinnerlichen.
Sehen. Aufnehmen. Fühlen. Spielen. Resultat: treibende melodische Techno Sets mit einem gehörigen Schuss Stan Starry.
 
Sein Style? Anders!
 
Anders als die Anderen, ist Stan einer dem du auch auf der Tanzfläche begegnest.
Viel...leicht der, der dir ein Lächeln ins Gesicht zaubert.
Vielleicht der, der dir den Schweiß in die Augen treibt.
Vielleicht der, der dich träumen lässt.
Vielleicht der, der dir hilft die nächsten Stunden der grauen Realität zu entfliehen.
Stan gibt seinen Sets eine Seele. Seine Seele. Deine Seele.
 
Ehrlich.

How do you become who you are? The path of the young Swiss singer-songwriter Mira Lora shows that if you follow the course of the river, you end up finding yourself.
After some involvement in politics, a degree in economics and a job in a management consultancy, Mira Lora was discovered by her current manager when he saw her on television performing an introspective piece with piano and her trademark velvety voice in a farmhouse for a report on rural life. The dream then becomes reality: Mira Lora travels to Berlin and London, writes songs with artists such as Femi Luna, Pablo Nouvelle and Duncan Hamilton, opens for Veronica Fusaro and performs at the residency of the renowned Montreux Jazz Festival.
Her EP "Unleashed" (produced by composer and pianist Niklas Paschburg, among others) will be released on 24 November 2023 and explores the quest to find one's own path. Mira Lora's gentle energy is both audible and palpable in the EP’s five songs: rhythms throb like a resting pulse above a grounded piano, while electronic soundscapes transcend into the air. This iridescent mixture also defines Mira Lora as an artist persona: rooted and yet ethereal. She combines the best of many worlds: there’s something elfish about her akin to the Norwegian synth-pop singer AURORA, she’s down-to-earth like the Polish pianist Hania Rani and her electronica appeal brings to mind Icelandic multi-instrumentalist Ólafur Arnalds. This is the sound of indie pop that transports you to inner worlds.

Benedikt Frey is many. Or just one? He is a composer. An arranger. A DJ. A Liveact. A ghost producer. A fan. He also plays in bands like INIT, or Dolphins or KEYS +++ produced the last two albums for Chris Imler. Downbeat in experimental dub zones. The goat for Edits and remixes. When house was his nation, he used to listen to pen names like Suedmilch or Venedikt Reyf. He still likes the music formed under their umbrella, but today his tomorrow is not echoed in yesterday. His sound signature moved on. Into the open. He founded labels like R.i.O. or Serious Trouble. 

He lives in Berlin. Physically. In mind Benedikt Frey is at many places. Traveling far thru his home studio that is a flat a studio a flat an instrument a record collection a flat a studio. Everywhere gear, vinyl, tapes, instruments, rooms for spontaneous sonic notions, these moments, when a sudden strike of stimulation falls. He is inspired a lot. For music to dance. Music for films. Music for live shows. Music for dancing glows. Techno, house, downbeat, ambient, jungle, electronics outside the norms. Those transportive ones. Jamming with others. Jamming with his mind. In Berlin Wedding, North of the town, where the lights dimmed low, neighbors share the flow, and a small river runs slow.  As a DJ he plays here, there, everywhere. Big clubs, small shacks, festivals, gatherings. From fast to 90 BPM - as he feels. 

For himself. For the crowd. In the spur. He still remembers his club kid days. Going to dance with friends. Down there in Offenbach. Doing the Robert Johnson. Collective emotions for a better tomorrow. These he still seeks. In his music. His shows. His collaborations. You can book him for a party. For enlightenment. For ecstasy or introspective perspectives. Dancing slow, whilst pirouetting a high-pitched show. 

Since more than a decade. His own music is out there, too. Bringing his spirits in sound. On his own labels. On international imprints like ESP Institute, Hivern Discs, Craigie Knowes, or Emotional Response. Solo works. Driving ones. Slow drills. Teased during his DJ dates around the planet. 

The music plays day and night. Inspiration comes. From a simple kick drum. A movie sequence. A bird on the sill. A picture, totally still. Can’t kick that feeling when it hits. Benedikt Frey. In dreams. In streams. In music. Emotions. Situations. At night. In those flashy lights, when it bites.

slow and steady, exploring the edge of downtempo

bepo's shift into music production came when he moved to Halle, where he digged deep into the (dance)floor to discover a flourishing underground scene. His fascination with electronic music ignited early, driven by getting lost and delving into previously unknown soundscapes.
He has embraced the art of letting go of control and experiencing liberation in the process.
Influenced by artists such as Iorie, Frida Darko, Cabaret Nocturne and Damon Jee, bepo's musical journey has settled into a slow rhythm where intricate threads of light and darkness weave their way through his scratchy sonic rug - a fusion of bouncy melodies and chugging rhythms.
The release of the widely recognised Chironji EP on Serafin Audio Imprint marked bepo's breakthrough, revealing a profound realisation of music's ability to touch ears and hearts.
Looking ahead, bepo is excited to release heaps of new music, driven by a desire to share his evolving style with the world.

[de] Eine Symbiose mit seinem Publikum einzugehen, um gemeinsam eine unvergessene Zeit zu kreieren - das ist das Credo des Deep Tech Spezialisten Andreas Rauscher. Der Wahl-Berliner bedient sich dabei einer außergewöhnlichen Auswahl an unkonventionellen Tracks. Dunkle, melodische Bässe offenbaren dabei eine seltene Dynamik des euphorisierten Rausches. Recordings seiner Sets, die hier online verfügbar sind, skizzieren auch außerhalb der Tanzfläche einen lebhaften Eindruck von diesen Momenten.

[eng] To enter into a symbiosis with his audience in order to create an unforgettable time together - that is the credo of the deep tech specialist Andreas Rauscher. The Berliner-by-choice uses an extraordinary selection of unconventional tracks. Dark, melodic basslines reveal a rare dynamic of euphoric ecstasy. Recordings of his sets, being available online here, sketch a vivid impression of these moments off the dance floor as well.
