Kitsch des Grauens proved!! 🤘🏽💎✨💕 Love it!!

I remember clearly how Brudi Bennet called me yeaaaaars ago on his way back from his first Conscious Madness, being slightly overwhelmed by how amazing his weekend was and telling me „WE REALLY REALLY NEED TO COME HERE TOGETHER NEXT YEAR“. Thanks to Brudi going there, he also explored 10 Mark DJ Team who years later should become our north stars when we started DJing ourselves. Ever since we experienced every version of CM that happened and we’re not exaggerating  when saying it is the best Festival we know. Perfect size, most amazing ground, super lovely crew and just simply unforgettable times we got to spend there with old and new friends. Highlights were for example seeing Justus and JPettersson at the beach, Alma Linda / Elizen the emperor in the field, meeting DJ Einkaufswagen or seeing 10 Mark DJ Team living their best life. 

We were devastated when the crew announced they will give CM a break after the 2023 version and then super delighted when they shared in 2024 that next year will happen again in a bit of a more compact version. 
Once the ticket sale was announced we already had 15 friends committed - when two weeks later the crew reached out to us and asked whether we would like to play this year, we could not believe it as this was kind of a bucket list thing for us. We ended up playing Sunday night closing the Bunker and went for a rather deep and meaningful set ✨

This summer was wild, super fun and diverse - but this one goes into the history books of Brudi&Spargel. Ending up with 20+ Champions league friends at this unique place and spending a super lush summer festival including going back and forth to our accommodation by boat simply was ridiculous. Shoutout to Max Hunter-Gordon and Maya (who is the mastermind behind the closing track "the way u make me feel") for coming all the way from the UK to experience this weekend with us 🫶

Huge thanks to the whole CM family for the invite and the amazing space you created for everyone joining once again. Much much love from the bottom of our hearts, we could not be more grateful <3333

PS much love and thanks to ciao 3lla for letting us use her unreleased edit of Sebastian Roches edit of Gangsta's Paradise in the intro that she used in a DJ workshop we visited last winter as an example for something in Ableton <3

Felix aka Brandy Zardinelli begann 2019 mit dem Auflegen – damals noch auf diversen Hauspartys in Gießen, zwischen einem Chaos an gebrannten CDs, spritzigem Ingwer- Birne-Kombucha-Radler und einem Paar CDJ 200, zu denen bis heute eine unangefochtene Liebesbeziehung besteht, entstand seine Liebe für die Musik und das Produzieren von eigenen Tracks.
Die damalige Club- und Feierkultur wurde dem sensiblen Gemüt irgendwann etwas zu dunkel. Also entstand der Wunsch nach neuen Formaten – nach Räumen, in denen Musik, Bewegung und Gemeinschaft anders erlebt werden können. Nach mehreren Ecstatic Dance Auftritten und eigenen Veranstaltungen war klar, wohin die Reise geht.
In der Stadt mit der höchsten Bioladendichte angekommen, wurde kurzerhand das Ingwerregal geplündert – und mit neuen, fusionierten Partyinspirationen ging es weiter:
eine Neuauflage des Contigo Kollektivs, das ursprünglich in Gießen/Frankfurt beheimatet ist und dort regelmäßig Ecstatic Dance Events anbietet. Seitdem organisiert Brandy in Freiburg verschiedene Veranstaltungen, die Musik, Gemeinschaft und das Tanzen in den Vordergrund stellen. Seit Anfang dieses Jahres hostet er mit dem Contigo Kollektiv eine Podcastserie.
Musikalisch bewegt sich der ganze Spaß zwischen funkigem und groovigem Indie Dance, Disco, House, Melodic House und Afro House. Aber manchmal immer noch viel zu schnell – denn sind 109 BPM nicht vielleicht doch gesünder fürs Herz? Man will ja schließlich 100 werden.
Aus diesem Anlass hat Brandy für den Spulenigel Podcast einen herbstlich-groovigen Mix zusammengestellt, der den ganz charakteristischen Style trägt und die feine, verspulte Seite seiner selbst zeigt.

I made this Set with some of my favorite tracks that I played on festivals and gigs 2025. It´s a hedonistic journey and a genre hopping hour of music that is made for good feelings and good vibes only.
I hope you like this creation of "Hedonistic Hustle"

It was such a pleasure to share my music at Mira's legendary birthday party at Kater in the legendary "Extra" Floor, surrounded by so many friends and as part of such a magnificent lineup! 

Thank you, Mira! Thank you again and again for everything you do and for this playground you provide. And of course, from the bottom of my heart: HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

This set is called “Siamo Tutti,” which translates from Italian as “We all are.”  We are all HUMAN BEINGS, we all deserve a dignified life! Reading it like this, in black and white, it sounds like a two-dimensional platitude. And yet, every day I ask myself why it is not a reality of life. This set is dedicated to those who are exposed to hatred because of their sexual orientation, gender, skin color, ethnicity, or class. And it is dedicated to all those who are committed to fight for a dignified world for everyone. I hope you can recharge your batteries, be inspired, and find new courage and strength!

Always love,
Alma

Thank  you my dear Tim Tabellion for mastering my set <3

“Night Drive in Dubai” is a smooth and atmospheric Deep House journey through the neon-lit highways and late-night rooftops of the city. Blending deep grooves, warm house textures, and touches of jazz and organic influence, the EP moves from sleek nighttime motion to high-energy boulevard lights before settling into a luxurious 3AM skyline mood. A cinematic, modern Deep House experience crafted for late drives, evening lounges, and stylish night playlists.

Yusuf Lemone is a well travelled artist and his music tastes best while sipping a Gin&Tonic or hanging out at the beach. During his time on earth he released music on labels like Copycow, Kindisch or Downtempo Rituals and played in different styles on Festivals and Clubs around the globe.
His sets are always slow with surprising twists and a dose of disco.
Yusufs goal is to put depth in shallowness and shallowness in depth, always balancing himself and the audience and never taking himself too seriously.
