part 1 of an eclectic 4 hours mix recorded at last month's Kompakt anniversary night in Berlin

Dave DK at 20 Years of Kompakt Night at Berghain, Berlin 07/09/2013 Part 1

DJ Koze has been one of the most adventurous and consistently entertaining techno producers of the 2000s and 2010s. Fusing a good ear for warm melodies with an enthusiastic attitude toward experimentation as well as a cheeky, offbeat sense of humor, his productions are highly inventive crowd-pleasers. [Andy Kellman, Allmusic]

150 Session pulls together two hours of Koze's best tracks on this In Focus.

In Focus DJ Koze

Recorded 3rd December 2013 for XLR8R Podcast episode 324, XLR8R said at the time:

The calendar only flipped to December a few days ago, but it seems that much of the music world has already begun to set its sights on the end of the year. More specifically, everyone seems to be looking back at the last 11 months and evaluating what pieces of music were amongst the year’s best. XLR8R is no different, and when our list of 2013’s best releases surfaces during the next few weeks, there’s little question that Amygadla, the long-awaited sophomore LP from DJ Koze, will make the cut. It’s been a big year for the veteran German producer, which is why we thought he would be an excellent candidate to put together the final XLR8R podcast of 2013. Over the past decade, DJ Koze has built up a reputation as a sort of lovable oddball, and this exclusive mix will do nothing to contradict that image. Much like his own work, the podcast is loosely rooted in house and techno, but its 70-plus minutes of music also reaffirm that Koze isn’t someone who’s afraid to color outside the lines. Armed with a playful spirit and a genuine sense of humor, Koze seems as comfortable dropping esoteric spoken word and bizarre outtakes from Marvin Gaye as he does stringing together warm slices of rich, organic house music. Oh yeah, he also manages to slip in a couple of conscious hip-hop tracks along the way. In short, it’s not the average podcast, but it’s not like we expected something “normal” with DJ Koze at the helm.

Barcelona’s John Talabot has been one of the biggest revelations of dance music in recent times. He has risen up from being a complete unknown to one of the most promising and in demand acts to arrive on the international club circuit. We’ve been big supports of his since his first 12” landed on Permanent Vacation back in 2009 and we're extremely happy to have this very special mix as the latest addition to our humble series. Oriol has always been quite an elusive character so we've decided to leave out the interview and let the music do the talking here. Enjoy!
