The Berlin based DJ Callush is known for her rebellious and dynamic journeys. Inspired by the energetic nights in the techno scene, Callush combines her dark and industrial selection with elements of EBM, Acid and Trance – usually from 140 BPM till open end. She has played in different clubs around Germany, such as Loft Club and Griessmühle, and will attend her first international gigs in future.

Tham for the mighty R - Label Group compilation 'Sektion 1‘ 👹

10/06/2020

Recognizable through his productions always very muscular and rhythmic, Basswell brings us back to the 90s, where the rave was at its peak.
Basswell continues to surprise with his perfectionism and ambition. His recent label "Homicid Records" has just released its first vinyl with Dave the Drummer, Chris Liberator and Sterling Moss, available for sale in a few weeks.

Wearing all black shouldn’t be a problem when joining the silent protest against racism today 2pm at Alexanderplatz, right?
See you there!

Vergil has emerged to serve his audience some sorely needed sonic clarity. The young DJ and producer was already able to fabricate an intriguingly recognizable body of sound and over the course of a few years the resident of Strictly Forbidden, one of Berlin’s hedonistic insider tips, has constructed and nurtured his very own vision of electronic music.

Frank Heise is the Co-founder of the Berlin-based imprint Space Trax, a fresh new label which is mainly orientated into trance and rave sound. This is also what you can expect from his DJ-sets: fresh rave attitudes with old school trance vibes. Also he’ll be part of the first Lebendig compilation - you should definitely keep an eye or both on this guy!

Griessmuehle: Farewell Sonnenallee – Zehn Anekdoten aus acht Jahren

Heute ist der offizielle Nachruf unserer geliebten Griessmuehle im GROOVE-Magazin erschienen, zu dem auch wir unsere Anekdote beigetragen haben!

Bis Freitag ist der vollständige Artikel erst einmal nur den Abonnenten vorbehalten, bevor er öffentlich online geht. Ein Abo abschließen lohnt sich also, gerade um der finanziell stark angeschlagenen Groove zu helfen (und ist mit 15€ für 1/2 Jahre auch echt nicht teuer).

Hier aber für alle unsere Anekdote, in ungekürzter Form (den gesamten Artikel gibt es nur auf der Groove Seite):

Von Tham & Acierate

Es gibt viele nennenswerte Momente, die wir in unserer langjährigen Liebesbeziehung mit der Muehle erlebt haben. Seit 4 Jahren veranstalten wir die SYNOID und sind Residents der Griessmuehle. Es gibt fast nichts, was wir emotional noch nicht erlebt hätten und auch wenn die SYNOID für uns jedes Mal das Größte war, so ist es doch ein anderer alljährlicher Abend von dem wir erzählen:

Noch aus anfänglichen Kindertagen, in denen der Club nicht bekannt und Neukölln noch weit entfernt am Rande Berlins lag, entstand, auch dem generellen Uso an diesem Tag folgend, die Tradition am 1. Mai umsonst Open Airs zu veranstalten. Das musikalische Konzept des Clubs wurde zunehmend erwachsener und vereinzelt konnte man die Partys als erfolgreich besucht bezeichnen (heutzutage würde man sie mit “Platz zum Tanzen“ titulieren). Dass die Gäste über das Ende des Open Airs noch zahlreich bleiben wollen und unzählige weitere Feiernde erscheinen würden, obwohl keine Veranstaltung für die Folgenacht geplant war, konnte sich im Jahr 2016 aber noch keiner vorstellen. Der Folgende war schließlich auch ein Werktag.

Wer nun unsere üppigen Closings, die bei den SYNOID Weekendern Allnighter-Charakter haben, kennt, kann sich sicherlich unsere Faszination vorstellen, als wir damals nochmal „kurz" zusammen “ein, zwei, maximal drei Stunden“ (O-ton Abendleitung) spontan im Silo ran durften. Kaum im Club hatten wir auch schon die Technik selbst aufgebaut. Hätte man uns gefragt, wir hätten wohl auch den Club einmal durchgefegt und die Klos geputzt. “Ein, zwei, maximal drei“ Stunden später - es waren eher zehn - zogen wir dann unsere Plattentaschen glücklich grinsend durch den aschgrauen Dreck und genossen bei strahlender Morgensonne und mit klingenden Ohren ein Bier am Kanal. Wir hatten das erste Mal b2b und dann gleich einen Allnighter gespielt.

Angetan von unserem ersten Mal und aus dem Fehler des Vorjahres lernend stand bereits am Tag darauf die Wiederholung für's nächste Jahr fest. Dieses Mal vorbereitet und angekündigt mussten wir jedoch nach kaum einer Stunde feststellen, dass geplant noch lange nicht durchdacht war. Wir hatten ein Problem. Das Silo war zu klein. Zum Glück sind wir als b2b Partner nicht miteinander verbunden (außer musikalisch). Also Einer mit zwei CDJ's unter den Arm geklemmt durch die Menge geschoben und ab nach oben, der Andere die ekstatische Crowd bei Stimmung haltend. Ein Drumloop, der Main Floor füllte sich. Ein Break mit Highpass Filter, die Crowd am eskalieren. Der Bassdrop und schon ging der Rave weiter. Es entstand, was die nächsten Jahre als “Fist of May“ bezeichnet werden sollte.

Von einer verlassenen Open-Air-Location zum weltbekannten Techno-Club: Macher*innen und Residents wie Darwin, Acierate und Esposito über die Griessmuehle.

Hailing from the Yorkshire Dales just outside of Leeds, Balrog has supplanted himself in the darker and grittier side of the genre with a focus on heavy unrelenting drums, driving bass and obscure distorted vocal. His tracks look back to the classic hard rave style and grooving techno of the early 2000's, but with a fresh injection of modern industrial power.

Up until meeting and forming Noneoftheabove in Rotterdam in 2015, with the direct purpose of their first mutual show, Nigel and Yoeri had been playing and producing techno independently since their mid-teens. Sparking together creatively as well as getting to know each other was equal parts of creating the trademark sound that now is Noneoftheabove. “Straight forward techno”, is how they describe the sound themselves, better even is to throw in hardcore, industrial, acid, and one of their main sources of inspiration: schranz.

As a Danish original, Resonant Pole has already more than proven his position at the very forefront of this Northern wave which has been flooding record shops and dancefloors around the globe. The musician who, despite his young age, already has wandered through various styles and genres of music, from Black Metal to Trance to Drum ‘n Bass, isn’t known for a delicate take on his craft. As a worthy emissary to the Scandinavian sound, he brings his vision of hard and unrelenting Techno straight up to his audience.

Grounded Theory's Henning Baer contributed with this killer mix to our podcast series. Combining music from different eras and areas, remaining rooted in techno while shedding light on sounds less frequently heard on Berlin dance floors: forward UK music, experimental electronics, and underground techno names from across the globe, both new and established, Henning delivered a perfect mix for a cozy day at home in quarantine.

Stay home, stay healthy!

There’s no denial the Belgians have a fond taste for the darker side of the spectrum. There are not many artist’s which prove this as much as Radical G. With his strong dedication to dark EBM sounds he delivered a special mix for our weekly podcast series and once again is presenting the impressive atmosphere and groove of the genre in his very own way.
