Biography
Language: EnglishI started DJing rather late – but I’m a big music freak and collector for over 30 years already. And a dancer; For a long time I’ve been one of the busiest Zurich clubbers and always all night on the dancefloor. But what I heard there was often not powerful enough – my feeling of lameness I often shared with others in the public. Only 1 of 10 party events was really great. That’s why I started some years ago with my own concept for a new danceclub (3disco.com) and with the partylabel reloaded.ch. With my background of New Wave and ‘Techno’, also guitar indie bands – like The Cure and DM, Front242, Psyche etc – and also Acid, Chicago House, UK Rave, Afterhours Techno, Minimal and Trance sounds from the dancefloor, I bring as DJ fast and strong, also melodic tracks with lots of rolling basslines, interwoven rhythms from up to 8 S4 decks – and also vocals or fragments of vocals. Currently my fave sound is Psi Progressive, but I heart also many tracks form other genres. In 2012, I began harmonic mixing – one of the pros of digital DJing. I have also many vinyl records and 1000+ CDs n tapes, but it’s clear that for someone who’s beginning after the year 2000 (and is working with computers intensely), the only choice is DIGITAL, with mostly lossless mp3s or flacs! I think the anti-mp3 (and sync!, what a crime!) movement is pure envy. Electronic music is produced digitally. Maybe if I started in the 80ies with DJing I would also still drag around suitcases with 12inches, who knows ?
With Ableton Live, I’m also producing my own tracks, soon 2 be listened 2 on Soundcloud.
