Bikini Berlin is your different kind of shopping mall, situated between Gedächtniskirche and Zoologischer Garten. In fact you have a brilliant view on the monkeys rock of the Berlin zoo from Bikini. And if you like unconventional shops selling nicely selected little...
I've been wondering all my life, why people hate people that they don't even know. Why do people fight each others, instead of clinging together and working with each others for a better living for everybody on this planet? In the end it all comes down to suspicion...
When I bought this double vinyl in 1994, I was totally shocked by the stunning beauty of Aphex Twin's music. Sure, sometimes he drops disturbing industrial hardcore beats. But the Ambient pieces on this album belong to the most beautiful music I've ever heard. Music...

So here it is: the final episode of motherfunk, my monthly Funk radio show on BLN.fm. For the farewell show I uncover the mystery of the music used for the motherfunk intro and outro jingles. Of course I could not resist to play some Level 42 in this 42nd show and to...
... is a perfect soundtrack for an easy Sunday afternoon. I've been listening to this live recording from the Opera House in Cologne 1975 so many times over the last decades, the mere sound of the recording became a part of my inner musical system.When Keith Jarrett...

....is the pure essence of Balearic music. The blue print to rhythmical chill out. You might know Sueño Latino from 1989, which sampled a main riff from E2-E4. Rumour has it that Manuel Göttsching recorded this long evolving instrumental track only as a quick session...
Little did Mijk van Dijk and Marcos López know back in June 1992, that they would write a techno classic called Schöneberg only about one year later. MFS Records had just released the ground-breaking compilation Tranceformed From Beyond, often called "the first Trance...
Just when I wanted to quit smoking, I got that funky little Traktor Audio 2 DJ Mk.2, that fits in a cigarette box. Nice as a backup sound card.
Great Night out with Angela and Roberto from Arthouse Records, last night at Rote Sonne.
