Jujumen is an act from Amsterdam with a semi-large collection of vintage stuff in semi-pro state in semi-studio (see full list). What it is about? Making rough music with (mostly) ancient gear (sort of: state of the art 1981). And a good beat. And some attitude. And hopefully a little fun. 

It's all happening in a nasty cramped studio room... Code words: dark, uplifting, no compromise (why bother anyway?) 

Some favourite gear: Nintendo gameboy classic - Ensoniq Mirage 8 bit sampler - Yamaha CS01II analog monosynth - Roland D550 Linear Arithmetic synth - Korg Electribe drum synth - Sequential Circuits Sixtrak - Korg DW6000 - Korg DS8 - Casio VL Tone - Casio CZ5000 - Roland TR 707 - Roland TR606 - Boss DR110 - Kawai K4m - Korg Mono/Poly - Akai HV10 Harmonizer - Korg SDD1200 digital dual delay - Oberheim Matrix 6R - Akai XR10 drum machine - Sequential Circuits Tom drum machine - Sequential Circuits Drumtraks drum machine - Nord Drum - DSI Prophet 08 -  Korg Radias - Korg Kaoss Pad 1 - Alesis Akira - MAM RS9 - MAM Phase 2 stereo phaser - Boss CE 300 Super Chorus - Kawai K3m - Casio Vz10M - Akai VX90 - Yamaha RX5 - Boss RBF (x2) - Boss RPH - TL Audio Fatman - Korg Drm1 drum module (with Linn percussion card) - Yamaha RM50 - Roland MKS30 (JX3p) - DSI Evolver - Waldorf Pulse - Dynacord VRS23 analog echo - Syntecno Teebee2 - Korg MS20 mini - Arturia Microbrute - Korg Volca Bass Keys & Beats - Korg X5dr - Korg M3r - Boss BE5 multi effect - Roland GP8 multi effect - EMu XL1, EMU Orbit 9090.

SL Curtiz - DJ / Producer / Labelowner

As a youth SL Curtiz’s musical diet consisted of Felix Da Housecat, Bad Boy Bill, Derrick Carter, CZR and multiple others from the American/Chicago house movement. Gorging his himself on the rhythm and grooves of jackin’ house, Curtiz’s love for this music blossomed exponentially and it was this passion for the scene that acted as the catalyst to his induction into dance music, first as a clubber, then as a promoter before he finally found his calling as a DJ.

After several haphazard starts as a touring DJ, Curtiz’s decided to start his own party ‘Bringing da Funk’ in 2003 in downtown Stuttgart. That same year, he was invited to become a resident at the then legendary Hit House Radio Station hosting the ‘Saturday Night Mastermix’ with Bernie Bernthaler weekly on Saturdays between 10pm and 6am. The show went on to achieve peak listenership during his tenure and opened Curtiz’s name to thousands around the city each week. In turn his appearances on the weekly radio show led to his ‘Bringing da Funk’ parties becoming an unmissable hangover for electronic fans all over the city.

Releasing records since 2007, and having founded labels Slammin Muzik and Base Legere in 2008, SL Curtiz has since worked with artists as wide reaching as Moussa Clarke, Zedd, Lucas Reyes, Francesco Diaz. Over the years both his music and his labels have received extensive support by named players such as Roger Sanchez, Umek, Bad Boy Bill, Dabruck & Klein, Richard Vission, D.O.N.S., Joachim Garraud, Flash Brothers, StoneBridge and countless others.

Away from his own releases Curtiz has also completed playlist strong remixes for the likes of Robbie Rivera, Wonderland Avenue, Dumb Dan, Reza, Splashfunk, John De Mark, Teo Moss, Peter Brown to name but a few, whilst having had releases on imprints such as Ministry Of Sound, Wormland Black, Suka Records, Sume Music and many more. His music has also featured on mix compilations for mega brands that include Ministry of Sound.

Today, Curtiz divides his time between A&R’ing one of Germany’s biggest house labels Wormland Music and producing and touring as an artist in his own right. To date his DJ schedule is an ever growing diary that regularly sees him play at clubs in countries such that include Russia, Ukraine, Germany, Austria, Swiss, Croatia, Moldova and Poland.

As well as writing, producing, DJing and A&R’ing, Curtiz also hosts a monthly one hour radio show called ‘Slammin Muzik Radio Session’ on Germany’s biggest Internet radio station Sceen FM.
