Music, Friends, And What House Music Is All About

Last Sunday I had my last gig at this event series. That night was a good example of how people contribute to the music by communicating with the DJ. Although there weren’t much people overall that night, a couple of friends joined me. It’s simply amazing how friends influence me in making music, in making [...]

Review: Dead Man’s Hand on Poker Flat

Finally it was time to listen to the new Poker Flat Compilation “Dead [...]

Mix #03: Beats and Magic

Ok, finally it’s here – the next mix set. A littler later as I promised, I still had to fight with some effects of the last weekend. I’ve compiled and mixed this set exclusively for my friend (sort of a gift), whose party at Saturday night ripped me off a little bit ;) Anyway, there [...]
