Sunday Music: Jan Akkerman & Claus Ogerman ‎– Aranjuez
As the nightwings come down slowly upon this Sunday, I am being reminded of an exceptional album by Dutch Jazzrock guitarist Jan Akkerman in conjunction with German musical arranger, orchestrator, conductor & composer  Claus Ogerman from the year of 1978. This is...
Where’s the referee when politicians play foul?
It's the World Cup in Brazil. Everybody's watching football (yes, including yours truly). Nobody's watching the politicians. And what are they doing? They are passing all the laws, that they don't want us to know about and protest against. They pass them secretly in a...
Berlin Techno Documentary 2014
This is a documentary about the Berlin Techno scene from 2014. Another authentic time capsule which we will watch with bittersweet reminiscence in a few year's time. It's a student's project by Ben Auwerx from France. Yours truly is adding some thoughts about...
Friday 13th and full moon = Thriller Night!
My friend Javier Garayalde, one of the brothers behind Kyodai and Wagon Cookin' (check their music, they are amazing) mentioned on Facebook that tonight it's Friday 13th AND full moon. Truely a Thriller Night, like in Michael Jackson's famous video. Surely today's...
Today’s match: Brazil Police vs The People
Today finally the football world cup in Brazil starts. And as much as I'm a fan of football and support the German team, I am shocked like many of you about the way, the "beautiful game" has been taken out of the hands of the people by the leaders of FIFA in...

Ali Love – P.U.M.P.
this is quite a great album. Modern House music with a funky twist, not fishing for compliments but so much capable to cross over. Especially "Surrender", a funky joint that I would have loved to drop on discontinued motherfunk. So expect me to feature P.U.M.P. on my...
Sunday Music: Brian Eno – Dune OST
Oh look, it's Special Agent Dale Cooper. Well, of course this is Kyle MacLachlan in the leading role of the movie Dune directed by David Lynch in 1984. While most of the soundtrack of this really nice science fiction movie (also starring Sting of The Police) had been...

Sunday Music: Jean Michel Jarre – Waiting For Cousteau
I still remember very well, where I heard Waiting For Cousteau by Jean Michel Jarre for the time. On one of my first tours with MFS Records we were driving through the scenic mountainside between Austria and Munich. It was September 19th 1992 - a Sunday. The night...
Berlin – Lost In Time And Space
I just watched a Berlin documentary on rbb (Radio Berlin-Brandenburg) about the music scene in West-and-Eastberlin before the opening of the wall. It is full of great pictures and music and although it's in German language, I recommend it to all you guys'n gals out...
Sunday Music: Projekt Erde
Today I'd like to introduce you to Projekt Erde, a very unknown ambient act from Germany. I discovered their double-album Mysterious Vibration/ 11:11Â in 1992, mainly due to the nicely looking CD box. Turn this music loud and let it swell and drift like a warm and...

Madeo – Love Salvation, an unreleased song from 1991
I am quite sure that Mario Marino aka Madeo would have loved to see  Conchita Wurst's historic victory at the Eurovision Song Contest 2014. My former studio and live act partner Johannes Talirz and me worked with Madeo on several demos in 1991 that never saw the light...
Bikini Berlin Cool
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...
The Fear Of The Unknown
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...
Sunday Music: The Köln Concert by Keith Jarrett
... 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...
Meet The Artists

MySpace Memories
...are revived every once in a while, when MySpace sends love letters to make you revisit your old page. Â I particularly liked this one, pictures from my one and only mijkfunk Live gig at Maria Club (now MAGDAlena) in Berlin.BTW, here's the original post to that gig.
This Berlin Street Corner
...in Mitte represents so much the state of Berlin in 2014: the old and trashed and revolutionary next to the new and slick and expensive. Gentrification is in full effect. My beloved Berlin is slowly changing into a city that those people who represented it 20 years...
Sunday Music: E2 – E4 by Manuel Göttsching
....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...
