Math Head - Turn The Music Up (MALENTE Re-Edit)


Last week I ended my post with: "I'm curious about what happens when I meet Drop The Lime this weekend at Shambhala Festival in Canada." So this week I'll let you know.

Shambs, as they call it, has been mindblowing. Awesome crowd. Great music. I enjoyed every single second when I played the Fractal Forest stage and managed to witness countless great DJ-sets. I hung with Skream, Ursula 1000, Smalltown DJs, Computer Club, The Rub, Flosstradamus, Fort Knox Five, Robb G, The Phat Conductor, Skratch Bastid, DJ Huggs, Bassnectar, Feature Cast, Wax Romeo and... yes: Drop the Lime (Luca) is a good guy. But I can tell you: Not only Luca is... They all are.

It's been my birthday yesterday and to be honest, there could have been no better present for me than to meet, speak to and exchange ideas with all these inspiring musicians. Hey, don't get me wrong. I'm not kissing ass here. I just appreciate good music and good company. It's a common misconception that whenever DJs or musicians meet, they talk about music. In reality it's not very often you get asked "wich synth/sample did you use on this/that track". Might happen once in a while, but in general it's more stories, personal experiences, politics and bullshit. It's just fun to communicate with people that have a similar job or passion or just similar problems. Thanks to all you guys for being there and making my birthday a happy one.

Now I'm sitting in a hotel in Calgary, cause tonight 'll play the afterparty in HiFi Club with A. Skillz. After three days of loud music Adam and me will turn the music up one more time... till firday that is. Check all my spaces of the nice guys and buy the math head 12" because there's four more great tracks/remixes on it, it's on Palms Out Sounds and I love vinyl.

PICKNICK-Party with Larry Tee and Munk


Dont forget to join us this Saturday in Berlin. Me and Jack Tennis will be hosting the upstairs floor (yes the small one) at Picknick. Larry Tee and Monsieur Modica from Munk will be joining us. Its Tanjas B-Day-Party, so show up.
We gonna post an exclusive Larry Tee track later. The last time he played at Rio Club was already 2 years ago.....so its gonna be quite funny when we squeeze him into a room where only 50 people can fit in:)

Dj Gorky (Bonde do Role)@Soundgarden with Shir Khan/Radio Fritz/05.08.08


Probably not so many people are aware of my radioshow though Radio Fritz has about 240 000 listeners daily.
But there is a lack between people using blogs and people hearing radio. I dont know if listening to the radio is old-fashioned, but since I have my radioshow I found myself listening to more radio again. When I was a teenager I remember that a few radioshows really influenced me in my dj-style. However, today people keep listening to podcasts and webradio. Therefore, I thought it would be a good idea to upload one of my weekly radioshows. Every week I am hosting nice people from all over the globe. Just whoever cool is in town gets invited. This show here is with Dj Gorky from Bonde do Role. Well - before you listen - dont forget - the show is mainly in german...and sorry...but my translation in the Dj Gorky-Interview kind of sucks....i Know....
The Picture of me and Gorky is also not the best. It was taken when we both Djed back to back before Simian Mobile Disco last year.
Ps: The show is about 2 hours long. To listen to the whole show you have to download this Zip-file here.

RQM - Miss Pacman (Oliver$ Rmx) / Exploited Records






This was just released on Vinyl. So here is a little free goodie for you from Exploited Records.
RQM has been involved in too many projects to mention here - but the most important thing....he is going solo now.
His debut is MISS PACMAN with top ass remixes from Oliver $, Dj Chernobyl and Act yo Age.
There is more stuff coming - watch out for the collabo with Sirius Mo - going to be released next year on Exploited.
For now, I leave you with the Oliver $ Remix. To be honest, Oliver $ is the hottest producer in Berlin right now.

Shir Khan - Live-Dj-Set@Killerkitsch/Buffclub/Glasgow


Actually, there are not so many live-recordings of my dj-sets. I just found this one in the internet. Normally, my booking-agency doesnt allow to have live-recordings of my sets, cause they know i am always drunk, might fuck up and spoil my image:)
Well - here is one i did in Glasgow, Scottland for a party called Killerkitsch@The Buff Club. Of course there are some mistakes in the set - what can you do. But well, I wasnt drunk that day. And actually I wouldnt say thats an incredibly good fresh set. But at least its a good party set including a bit of disco, distorted electro, basement, deep tunes, some acid and mash-ups. So you get a bit of the Shir Khan-repertoire in 2 hours.

THE BANG GANG DEEJAYS – D IS FOR DISCO, E IS FOR DANCING


The Bang Gang Deejays did it again. A new Mix-CD. The Modular Newsletter promises 45 Songs in 10 Minutes. I dont know if they meant the snippet for this release or the real Mix-CD. So I wonder how they would clear all the rights. However - I jumped over to the Bang Gang Podcast and just checked it out. Its superdope. It seems to include every single hot tune from 2008 and 2007. I also spotted one of my remixes in their mix (the one for "The Jai-Alai Savant" i once did). So now just go over to their podcast. Its worth checking it out anyway. Australia is in the hizz-ouse again.

DJ SUPERMARKT feat. GAMEBOY/GAMEGIRL @ Palmfest Taragona


a short message from my "holy" holidays in he countryside in france: i will do a very special performance in Taragona at the palmfest2008 together with Australia's finest GAMEBOY/GAMEGIRL. i can't tell you what is going to happen, becuse i don't know yet, but it is going to be spectacular.
There will be no posts until the end of august from my side, because i am in a place where the internet reaches it's limits. There is no "fast" internet in the countryside in france. a download/upload of one song takes between 45 to 60 minutes. There is always time to make a coffee while waiting for a website like "myspace" to open (there is absolutely no chance to watch a video on youtube..). It's like the 70s are back! and it's a test in ZEN-meditation...
so enjoy my colleagues' stuff until then. it's great (although i can not download it...) see you end of august!

Moby - Alice (Drop The Lime Rmx / MALENTE Re-Edit)

For those who didn't know, I was frontman of a German Indierock band till 2002. With this band we've been booked by one of the biggest German states radio stations to play their New Years Eve party 1999 (broadcasted live on TV!) A killer event some time back when the music biz made money and everybody spent money. The fee was outragous and every artist was free to bring 10 close friends to the party for whom the radio booked rooms in a great hotel. Unfortunately most of my friends can't behave.

The guitar player of my band made friends with the girls from make-up who threw their rouge at him and made him look like a drag-queen-indirock-guitar-player. He did this only to drive me mad, because he knew a was anal about or image. Another friend was so drunk that he lost his glasses, his purse and about everything else of value. The third friend found a "groupie" though he wasn't in the band. Not only that this "groupie" stole his purse while being with him in his room, she somehow also managed to damage his penis (no joke) so he had to visit a doctor the next day to make the bleeding stop. Friend number four convinced the poor guy at the reception that our gang had to go to the spa after the show at 3 a.m. to enjoy the whirlpool and sauna. We were already having a great party in these facilities with another friend of mine hitting on my girlfriend when Moby entered.

Moby played that party with a whole band and it was quite good. Anyway. He wasn't too happy about us being in the whirlpool and recreation area and went straight into the sauna. Well he tried. When he was about to enter our guitar player was just about to piss on the hot stones to see what happens or maybe just with no reason at all. Maybe because he was too drunk. Don' ask me. Moby ran out in a hurry. That's when I met Moby. I'm curious about what happens when I meet Drop The Lime this weekend at Shambhala Festival in Canada. If you're around, drop by. It should be fun... (Moby can't come, he's in Germany at SonneMondSterne Festival)

KEEDZ - Stand On The Word



No, this is NOT Justice. But a good rip off, I think. The original choir sample comes from The Joubert Singers (aka Celestial Choir), a gospel choir from the 80's. Larry Levan did a great remix back in the days, maybe you've heard it late at night/early in the morning at one of our parties. Distort fron france remixed the Keedz version too, which sounds the same, only a bit more, well, distorted... Blogosphers late commercial summerhit? Love it or hate it.
