For the February 2025 edition of Wayward, I was very excited to drop a bunch of tracks that I had just picked up the week prior, and was salivating at the thought of playing them in a club setting! It was a super fun night, and I was joined on the decks by some very talented artists: DJ Cira (Adult Services), Jonboy (Disco Katz), and fellow DeMentha member Feen. I loved every set from each of these DJs. Here is my closing set.

Wayward at F8 // February 2025

Lovers! This set was recorded on a great night with @tipping-point-music at @kater_blau in April 25. That night I felt like playing a particularly trippy and hypnotizing journey. Thank you for trusting me with this! 💖 Thanks a lot to the super sweet Kater and Tipping Point crew - and to @kon-faber who sent me their brand new remix “I Need You” by Hrag Mikkel right before the set. Judging by the audience's reaction, it's a gem 💎

💿 Love for sun & moon 💿

🎶 Heute haben wir Luft & Lube mit einem Live Recording auf KataHaifisch zu Gast. Dieser wunderschöne Streifen verlangsamter elektronischer Musik entstand auf dem diesjährigen Kabinett Open Air. Auf einer Spiellänge von zwei Stunden erzählt uns das DJ Duo eine spannende Geschichte über den Facettenreichtum und die Schönheit des Downtempo. Mal extravagant, dann wieder classy. Es bleibt abwechslungsreich, fesselnd und ein rundum rundes Set.

Dankeschön 🧡

Podcast 429 - Luft & Lube @Kabinett der Kuriositäten Open Air `25

🎵 Dario Klein, jofunk & Max Härtel - Live @ Myzel im Friedenspark Köln (30. Mai 2025)🎵

Shortly after Arkadiusz arrived at Dario Klein's flat in cologne, he was taken along to a Myzel collective open-air event. Rumour had it that they would be jamming spontaneously. What happened next was simply beautiful and perfect for an open-air event in the middle of summer. The atmosphere was sunny and positive, with funky interludes and a great groove.

>>> INTERVIEW <<<

✔️ What are your musical influences? 

We are an improvisation project from Cologne, working with different instrumentalists: Sometimes in our Cologne studio, and sometimes on stage! All our sets are created completely in the moment. Nothing is planned or pre-produced, which allows us to move in different directions and react spontaneously to the dance floor.

We produce all the sounds with our instruments: Dario Klein plays the drum machine and electric bass, Jofunk plays the keys, and Max Härtel plays the saxophone and flute.

This set was created at a sunny open-air party organised by the Cologne Myzel Kollektiv, who hold events at various off-site locations in Cologne.


Although we have different musical backgrounds, this set showcases our shared passion for grooving. Influences from soul, funk, jazz and breakbeats can all be heard in the set. All in all, it's bouncy but emotional!


✔️ In your opinion, what makes a good afterhour?
The best after-hours events are always spontaneous! If spontaneous, then full power!


✔️ What thoughts would you like to share with us about your mix?
The most important idea we pursue with our live sets is to live in the moment. We don't plan everything down to the smallest detail because it's bound to go wrong! But we do it with a smile on our faces. The principle behind our sets is simple: Think less, just do it! Nothing can go wrong without a plan!

 
✔️ How did you feel about the gig?
We found this gig particularly exciting because the three of us had only met once before. Namely, at the dress rehearsal.

Location: CASTLE OF MYZEL  - Friedenspark / Cologne

Dario Klein, jofunk & Max Härtel - Live Impro Special [at] Myzel Open Air [ Live-Special ]

This month, our Striped Podcast comes wrapped in something truly special again: 
LASKÀ, our June artist – and birthday girl (!) – shares a set full of warmth, depth, and storytelling.

Her downtempo journey is a tender dance between honesty and atmosphere – playful, grounded, and glowing from within.
It feels like watching the sun go down barefoot, somewhere between dreams and dancefloor.

Before gracing the stage at this year’s Fusion Festival, she’s gracing our ears with this lovingly crafted mix.

Happy Birthday, LASKÀ – and thank you for this magical moment<3

Temple Tears B2b Tarantella - OE-AA-SIES - Tuesday Night @ Afrikaburn 2025

Step into the opening hour at the legendary Culture Box in Copenhagen – a night where I had the honor of setting the vibe in the iconic Red Box.
Expect bouncy indie dance, hypnotic grooves, deep basslines and dreamy textures, carefully selected to guide the dancefloor from the very first beat.
Recorded live, this set takes you on a journey from the warm-up pulse to late-night energy – a blend of my signature Berlin-inspired sound and a few surprises along the way.

Thanks to everyone who came early, supported, and danced with open minds and open hearts.
Big love to the @cultureboxcopenhagen team for the invitation and the warm welcome!
Hope to see you all on the dancefloor again soon.
🖤✨

Nachdem sich Dr. Schneckno in die Tiefen des Dark Downtempo zurückgezogen hatte, hielt er Wort – und erhob sich, gleich einer Erscheinung aus Nebel und Schatten, aufs Neue.
Mit feinem Gespür für das Verborgene führte er das diesjährige CoSy Festival auf eine Reise durch schattendurchwirkte Klanglandschaften – hypnotisch, düster und von wohltuender Rauheit.

Im mystisch illuminierten Drunter&Drüber Floor des Schlosses Dornburg an der Elbe, kunstvoll ausgestattet durch das Wiener Kollektiv @magikamusic, erklangen zu freitäglicher Mitternacht jene tiefen, rollenden Basslines, die nicht einfach gehört, sondern körperlich erfahren wurden – als bebendes Fundament unter der Zeit.

Ein aufrichtig’ Dank sei all jenen Tänzer:innen ausgesprochen, die sich erhoben und in seliger Eintracht dem zweistündigen Bassline-Korso hingegeben haben –
ihr habt das ehrwürdige Gemäuer bis in seine Grundfesten erschüttert und dem Schloss neues Leben eingehaucht.

✍️ Dr. Schneckno aka con:gusto

Yaz is a San Francisco-based DJ who enjoys playing tech house, deep tech, minimal, and techno. He is an active member of the Burning Man community and underground house/techno community in San Francisco.

Yaz has played all over San Francisco at all the major venues, including Public Works, Mighty / The Great Northern, Monarch, Midway, and Halcyon. He was a resident DJ at the venerated Wish Lounge for 5+ years, running his monthly Wayward party right up until the pandemic caused Wish to close. Once it was safe to do so, he has taken Wayward to its new home F8 Nightclub, and has been a resident there since August 2021. 

Yaz has collaborated with many different promoters and labels, and has opened and closed for (or shared billing with) well-known artists including John Digweed, Bob Moses, The Scumfrog, Tommy Four Seven, John Monkman, Technasia, and Marques Wyatt, to name a few.

His love for Burning Man is only rivaled by his love for music. His styles go from deep tech, minimal and techno to indie dance. You can find him on the playa playing for his camp DeMentha, and everywhere else for The Janky Barge, Airpusher, and Icarus. Yaz has also participated in many fundraisers in San Francisco for the aforementioned camps, as well as DISTRIKT, Mayan Warrior, the Salty Jacks, and others.
