Originally released in 2014 “Lovebirds” by Melbourne-based James Martin is long-standing secret weapon. Now it received a remix treatment by Dan Morgan from Napier and also from myself in Berlin. Dan Morgan adds a touch of tech-house, and I get lost in time.
Hey, I’m having something new for you: “Chasing A Forgotten Dream”. It’s inspired by an early morning conversation I once had with Jürgen v. Knoblauch (Jazzanova) in Sydney. Anyway, thanks for being with me on this journey! 👋

Lofi hip hop meets indie techno.
Some time back my daughter challenged me to create a lofi inspired piece. You know, the ones to listen to when studying or when you want to get work done. Here’s my take on this chill movement and I hope you like to listen to it just as much as I do when wanting to be productive 😀
My daughter also designed the cover artwork, inspired by spring and new beginnings.
DESAMPA is a cool cat. He’s a New York-based electronic music artist from São Paulo who moonlights as opera singer. His R&B-tinged voice and bittersweet piano chords touched me. I’m humbled he allowed me to remix his track “Foregone”.
“Quality vibes!” – Makossa (G-Stone, FM 4)
“Nice Job.” – Shahrokh (Compost Records)
Dancing on a rugged wooden floor is not always the easiest practice. Moving away from the often-indulgent flat concrete surface is challenging. But it’s the direction that improves things over the long run. Here’s a current dj chart on Beatport from my modern-day workshop. Move onto the floor. Dance. Shout. Be Yourself.
And if you are in Berlin, come out to my next gig. We’re stronger together.
This year I put together an advent-survival-kit of 3 tracks each day, over 24 days. It pulls me away from speed, away from mass, and away from thoughtless consumption. I invite you to check every day and feel something.
A selection of my Nupacific works, for your urban ears. It’s my take on soul food, cut and cooked with a fistful of love.
The seasons they are changing again. It feels like winter’s chill is approaching fast, today, when I get to unfurl this mix into your hands. All of the love, melancholy and heartache, all of these harsh yet wonderful winter moments, I give them to you now. For the days to come. And I hope you receive it with all the multitude of worlds it comes with.
