Some call it DJing
Sometimes people let me play vinyl records in public. This can be risky. I wouldn’t really call myself a DJ. DJs of the hip-hop or techno kind are true artists who know how to do beat-matching, scratching, and other advanced things. I have zero such skills.
I’m just someone who shows up with some records and I play them one after another, ideally at the correct speed. Everything I know comes from this video (YouTube link).
Over the past years, I’ve played at these places:
– AJZ Bielefeld
– Alte Hackerei, Karlsruhe
– Be-Part Festival, Esslingen
– Cafe Kopfeck, München
– Cassiopeia, Berlin
– Friesenstraße, Bremen
– Gasteig, München
– Gun Club, Hamburg
– Kafe Marat, München
– Kafe Kult, München
– Kastanie, Berlin
– Keep It Evil, Nürnberg
– Kiste, München
– Jennerwein, München
– Koma-F, Berlin
– Orangehouse, München
– Pelmke, Hagen
– Störtebeker, Hamburg
– Südstadt, München
– Sunny Red, München
– Tommyhaus, Berlin
– Trxxxter, Berlin
– Zoro, Leipzig
There were probably some more parties and sessions, but I forgot. Let me know so my memories come back!
I very much enjoyed playing, among others, with Oihane, Barox, DJ Wuchtbrumme, Darius, Steiner, Däne Mark, and others.
