So it was my first time at ZBB and super excited to be playing a downtempo hybrid set with my analogue synth. Unfortunately, I came to the castle with a lot of personal heavy load and was not ready for partying at all. In fact, I was sitting in the morning before travelling from Stockholm to Berlin and was about to write Alexander Paulski (@alexanderpaulski) that I would not be making it. However, eventually I did. So my tension, arriving at Berlin Südkreuz with my keyboard in a reusable shopping bag, was high. But as soon as I saw the first hippies waiting for the bus shuttle I started to breathe. I immediately felt welcomed and home. The shuttle to the castle turned out to be tons of fun but loooong due to the bus driver not really finding his way there. Finally arriving at Schloss Beesenstedt, the entire bus was ready for mysterious magic adventures that were about to start ✨
Back to Friday night and I am supposed to open the dancefloor of the bar with some trippy groovy downtempo, but as it often happens, a DJ wizard (@jamesfish) pulls out his stick and started a fantastic .... upbeat Hip-Hop set! What to do? My thoughts were all over the place. Should I play a totally different genre because nobody wants to hear downtempo after upbeat hip-hop? As it turns out, however, the burners were ready for downtempo and I had the pleasure to play at the amazing dj-booth of the bar in front of a full dancefloor. Thank you to everyone who danced. I was in complete flow during the set and felt so connected with everyone dancing (hope you felt it too) - so much, that I could not remember what had been played. So perhaps you would like to relisten too, then here is the downtempo set from the ZBB bar, Friday 23h00-01h00.
