Tom Misch & Yussef Dayes - Julie Mangos: This is my favorite Track from „What Kinda Music“ which is one of my favorite albums of all time. A perfect mixture of contemporary jazz, Neo-Soul and stinky funk which is taken to another level by the outstanding and unique drum style of Yussef Dayes. Every musician involved in this album had a great musical influence on me since I’m 16 - especially the bass player Rocco Palladino who also played the bassline on this track. I would agree with the sampled caller who describes the album in this track as „You know it's hard, true, interesting, it takes you into all sorts of places and journeys…“

Dj Pipe - Touchstone (Alright): DJ Pipe already blew my mind last year with his Debut EP and he continues to amaze me with his new Deeply Floored EP that came out in January. Every track on this EP is fire and he perfectly hits my taste with his heavily 90s influenced sound that unites amazing grooves, deep /spooky sounds and slinky worminess. Imagine this track played on an open air at 6 am just after the sun comes out.

LVCA & MARLON - Seraphim: One of my favorite vinyl distributions Ba Dum Tish continues their „Sock it to Me“ legacy with another superb release. This track has everything a peak time house banger needs, analogue sounding drums, a deep baseline, sweet pads and the right amount of acid. This EP will stay in my record bag for a long time. Sound Virus – Swirl | Last weekend I played a gig with one of my best friends Denis from MONEY CAN´T DANCE and slept at his place. I woke up pretty hangover, went to the living room and picked a random vinyl to listen to while waking up. It was the Mint Condition repress of the Sound Virus - Swirl EP and one minute after I started this track, the sun began to shine. It was such a beautiful moment, perfectly fitting the vibe of the track and I will always think back to this moment when I hear the track. It is such a timeless banger and still sounds fresh 27 years after it was originally released.

Die Gestalten - Finstere Zeiten: A deep Detroit influenced Electro track featuring the original recording of Berthold Brecht reading his poem "An die Nachgeborenen“ 1939 in Paris. This is not the right format to talk about the political dimensions of dance music or the meaning of this poem. But under the current political circumstances it is important for me to point out that our subculture can’t refuse to be political since it has always been!
