ACID MARIA
ACID MARIA began to play records on December 6th in 1992. This night at a tiny location in Munich on German Santa Claus appears to her as Jour fixe. For her this evening became a decade-changing experience. "When for the first time after a break people to throw their arms into the air to welcome the Bassdrum, to me it had happened. I knew: this is what I want to do".
At that early time the music was an urban mixture from what the electronic scene offered: Detroit and Cologne, Chicago and Helsinki, Minneapolis and Munich, New York and Berlin. Acid Maria is spinning all that into a swirl and creating something new out of it. Very soon gigs take her out of Munich, sending her to more than 20 countries all over the world.
"There were times when people asked whether everything would start turning into a constant repetition. But I always feel a change. To deal with different expectations and conditions each time is such a challenge." Her style in music today ranges from minimal-rhythms to significant quotations and forms which cannot be put into precise definition. Always led by her enthusiasm for great tunes which she wants to be shared. At some point Acid Maria was longing for musical cooperation and started to release records with friends like Steve Bug, Gebrüder Teichmann, Markus Güntner (Ware), Abe Duque, Steril and with DJ-friend Electric Indigo with different outputs like remixes, tracks, records, mix-CDs.

 DJ FLUSH
DJ FLUSH loves to be a Dj for over 10 years now. Pushing the and going over the borders of electronic music, he brings everything in his mixes from chicago jack and booty tracks to electro, from distorted no future sounds to rather minimal funk - dirty, freaky and often with a big drop of acid sneaking and rolling through the tracks. He played at quiet all of the most relevant clubs in Berlin as there are OstGut/Panoramabar, Tresor, Maria, WMF, Watergate. With THE ELECTRIC FORCE, SWEAT & ERROR and FREAKED he has been promoting party nights that are now known for presenting some of the freshest and most upfront music to the audience every time. Daniel Bell, Cristian Vogel, Ark, Roman Flügel, Neil Landstrumm, Frankie, Titonton Duvante and many others were playing and Jamie Lidell as well as T.raumschmiere played their first livesets in Berlin there. Since June 2008 DJ FLUSH has been running the Killekill Klub at Berghain Kantine together with friends of his. Strongly connected to the scene he has also been rocking many non-commercial underground locations all over Berlin and Germany as well as international clubs in Poland, France, Sweden, Netherlands, Belgium, Turkey, Mexico, Spain and so on. He manages to hold the thin line between being there for his audience - looking at their needs in music to have a eclectic party - and educating as an innovator of new sounds and acts in the electronic music scene. With many influences in background he brings different sounds and styles, is able to feel the vibe of the evening and to let the spark jump over to the crowd with his cool, sympathic and stirring kind of djing and his fresh skills.

 FRANK BEAN
FRANK BEAN ist ein extremer Musikliebhaber, dem nur sehr wenige Platten gefallen und dem sich die meisten DJs zu wenig anstrengen. Wenn er selbst auflegt, dann spielt er nur Platten, die er total einzigartig findet. Und das sind sie auch. Die mixt er dann schnell und engagiert und mit seinem feepigen, lustig schunkelnden Mix aus Elektro, Techno und Funk findet er daher immer mehr Freunde.
present top tracks:
Code9 - Black Sun (Hyperdub) | The Mind Boyz - Do You Want To Party (On Top) | Theo Parrish Space Station (Sound Signiture) | Spac Hand Luke - Psycho (Rephlex) | Reade Truth - Frequency Sexxx (Planet E) | Frank Bean - Electrotrack (Unreleased) | Harmonic 313 - Flash (Warp) | DJ Q - Bend On Over (Dance Mania) | Ed DMX - MPC Trax (Breakin' Records) | Transllution - Do You Want To Get Down (Supremat) | Headcleaner - Stretch Cortina (Rephlex)

 GEBRÜDER TEICHMANNÜber die GEBRÜDER TEICHMANN braucht man in Berlin nicht viel zu sagen: Party animals mit einem ewigen Lächeln im Gesicht und hervorragende DJs, die mit ihrer von innen kommenden Euphorie jeden Floor in Schwung und beste Laune bringen. Ihre neuesten Produktionen und die entsprechenden Live-Auftritte bratzeln schön analog zwischen deep house und acid aus den Lautsprechern. Perfekter Killekill-Sound.

 HANNO HINKELBEIN
A tough-looking guy with a fine sense for electronic music. Raffinesse meets power; Hanno is interested in everything; maybe not in collecting Smurf-figures or satinshirts, but he likes to get his inspiration from travelling the earth, photography, meeting people, politics, all kinds of arts and aesthetics, even of turkish wrestling… Soundwise he locates himself somewhere between wonky Techno, House, trashy and clean Electro, Breakbeats, Industrial/Metal, Death Metal, Dubstep, Rebetico, Gypsy Music and so on; which seems to be a place to be taken which can be qute interesting for the listeners.
He started Djing in 1996 after playing the guitar in an industrial band; taking the leap from there to the club shows his versatillity and his open mind for music – as long as it holds something special for him, he has an open ear for it. He doesn`t want to bring the „newest shit“ all the time – this would be narrowing he thinks; why always play the few really good new tracks when you can hark back on a huge amount of excellent releases of the past thirty years, which contain so many workpieces that people do and don`t know? It`s all about the selection of the Dj and about how you „bring“ it to the audience; and Hanno tries to bring everything in electronic-related music together to a stirring whole, to that people in the club can be going crazy on – he likes to compare Djing with having a ever and ever again interesting sexual being-together of the Dj and the crowd; you got to be imaginative to be a good lover...
With his productions – even a gold record among them for his appearence on a release of „Zweiraumwohung“ - he tries to keep it functionable; clubsounds live on the bassgroove beyond them, on the way the sounds and the groove is put together; his work is, even when quite hard stuff, is always precise and reflected.
When Djing as well as when producing, surprising somebody is more important to him than giving a promise for this or that; this makes Hanno an always fresh and interesting musicact that aerates the lineup in every venue he plays. Big heart, friendly lifestyle brought together with sense for partying hard and opening your mind in music!

 S-MAXWie kann man Funk optimal mit verschrobener und knarziger Elektronik verbinden?
S-MAX, der seit Jahren das Label Boogizm betreibt und außerdem auf Karloff, Telegraph und viele anderen feinen Labels veröffentlicht hat, weiß es. Ganz sicher! Sein Sound bewegt sich irgendwo zwischen Minimal techno, Elektro und wonky Techno der Brightoner Schule, treibend und funky as hell.

STYPE
Considerate and reliable is how Dj Stype presents himself when playing his gigs. He is a friendly guy who knows what he wants and who has a huge knowledge of the electronic music scene especially in Berlin. At first sight a Dj is just one of many, but when getting in closer touch with him, he shows whether he is able to take you into his own musical universe or not; getting to know Dj Stype is interesting in this exact way: he manages to make himself a really interesting musician without having to blow his horn loudly - he doesn`t have to pose or boast, his sound speaks for itself, loud enough to keep you being interested in what comes next. A good way to enter his world is through his own blog: http://www.dissonanzstudien.de/blog/
Since he began to dj in 2001 he has shown his skills in the most interesting venues of Berlin and on occasional webstream-sessions, hosted by klangterroristen.de, where he had the chance to bring his definition of techno, techhouse, minimal, but also idm, breaks, even breakcore or drum n bass to the public. His reliability lies in the fact, that you can always trust in him playing a solid set wherever you put him, he has a versatile archive and knows how to bring the tracks to the crowd. Also his (only! – what speaks for him) release on Haushaltsware Sprache mirrors his character; why put out many releases? He would just put to public what really is worth it, have a listen to it and hear him at the club – you`ll never regret!
