Stop The Planet – 3.38s

Tuesday, March 27th, 2007

Stop The Planet by The Dropfonics is somewhere between a Dub Reggae track and a Ska track. It has a very urban feel to it and features some classic organ riffs and Space echoes on keyboards and guitars. At times it is dreamy and at others times it jives along nicely. Very much a vinyl track to add authenticity to your project. Written By J Milner & D Fairhall. This is royalty free music.

Cookies revisited

Thursday, March 22nd, 2007

Cookies BerlinJulie, thank you for the picture!I have to admit: I really love that place. My flatmates just ran off to make their first visit to Cookies but this time I be a good boy and stay home. Science wants me tomorrow. But since the opening party two months ago, I guess I have been there six or seven times and it has always been great. Seeing people I do not normally meet, enjoying the special, hedonistic atmosphere and listening to really great music.

I danced to Sebo K, Acid Maria, Shir Khan, Carsten Kleeman, Clé.. and the sound has majorly improved and now fills the old cinema with bombastic waves of bass and melody. Almost every night there is a band, pretty unknown mostly, deep and sometimes experimental. It’s an interesting climax because after the show, it’s like the party begins. Enjoy some more fotos after the click and that’s enough for the promotion right now.

Stockholm style, fashion and nightlife

Wednesday, March 21st, 2007

Hanna FridenEverybody is so crazy about Scandinavian design, especially in fashion lately, with labels like Acne or Cheap Monday capturing the world in no time. Having lived in Sweden I can confirm that Swedes DO have a lot of style, whether it be skater, lady or lad. It was fantastic living in Linköping (not for the style only, please, of course for the calm and warmhearted people). I also had a punk band there, but that’s another story..

Today I want to recommend Hanna Fridén who runs a blog (and does graphics and works for the magazin Stureplan and so on..) with lots of nice stories and moreover great photos of Stockholm people, fashion and lifestyle. She has also has a very charming writing. Which you can only enjoy if you read Swedish. Ha! No, seriously, I know some people who come here and understand it – Svenskar, var är ni? Säg nÃ¥got, är ni snäll!

Kornél Kovács in the mix

Wednesday, March 21st, 2007

Kornel Kovacs at SpybarThis man rocked the club last saturday where I lost two jackets, a scarf and my keys. Good news is: I got it all back! But wow, what a party. Kornél Kovács is only 21 years old, lives in Stockholm and plays clubs like the Spybar or Teatron. We were happy to welcome him here in Berlin – and much more than the welcome I hardly remember.

So it’s a fantastic club, not only because lost things get found, but because of the familial atmosphere. And it’s so secret that I was told not to write anything about it – not even here on this tiny, unimportant blog. Wow. But that’s ok, exclusiveness is a secret to many succesful places.
All I can give you is this pack of stompy techy Stockholm electro tunes, please imagine the blond girls closing their eyes and shaking their hair: Kornél Kovács and his halloween mix and some pictures from the last “Nacht” at Spybar
