their own biography
the whole biography
Johannes Albert is a well-known House music producer and DJ from Berlin. For over 10 years, he has been running his own music label, Frank Music, and has become a key figure in Berlin’s club scene and beyond. His DJ career has taken him around the world—from London and Tokyo to Sao Paolo and Offenbach—thanks to his exciting sets and reputation for mixing different music styles. He has also released music on respected labels like Live At Robert Johnson, Rawax, and Permanent Vacation. Johannes blends different styles in music, mixing modern disco affairs with acid house, current rave revivals, and classics in the right moment. His sets are energetic and full of surprises, often showing off his open taste in music. He grew up in Franconia near Würzburg and got into music through his love for House and Disco. Over time, his interests expanded to include Techno, Italo Disco, and more. His talent and personality helped him rise from small hometown clubs to become a regular at top venues like Robert Johnson and international venues like Sunday Sunday in Mexico City. Frank Music started as a home for his own work, leading to four solo albums, including the ambient gem "Spessart". Tracks like "Endorphin Refill" and "Fountain of Youth" have become favorites, and he has also worked with artists like I:Cube, Fred P, Eden Burns, Robert Owens and Gerd Janson. The quadruple Moon album series with longtime collaborator Iron Curtis show off his more moody material while his EPs with Lauer & Biesmans are made straight for club-use. Johannes is also a sought-after remixer, known for his versatility and instinct for the dancefloor. Artists like Riva Starr & Mark Broom, Keinemusik, and Catz 'N Dogz have trusted him to reinterpret their work. In summer 2025, the acclaimed producer returns with his forthcoming album "Private Dancer" on Permanent Vacation and it's a statement. The album - his first in 6 years - stars a sound that was always in him - called House - something that moves the body and warms the soul. Collaboration is key. London's own Helen Salvin graces "Wide-Eyed" with her magnificent voice where midtempo meets a subtle boogie. Things heat up when Biesmans jumps in for the infectious, uptempo "Get My Gee". And when friend Iron Curtis lends a hand, the title track "Private Dancer" melts into subliminal grooves. With 15 years of releases and 25 years behind the DJ booth Johannes Albert masters the balance: Dance Music that's always classy yet still offers a modern twist. Maybe all we need now is a basement, a red light, and - you know it - more of that feeling.Their RA profile lists Permanent Vacation, Live At Robert Johnson, Jack Off, Frank Music and 2 more.often with HOPPER, ACID BOGEN, Mila Stern, none of them here that night
“So, there's this super cool guy named Alexkid.”

the whole biography
So, there's this super cool guy named Alexkid. He's been doing awesome music stuff for almost three whole decades. First, he was in Paris, but now he lives in Berlin, which is far away. People really like him because he's really good at making music and he loves playing with music machines, like big musical toys. When he was a kid, he liked music gadgets more than video games, unlike his friends. He started with music machines and it led him on a big adventure of making cool music and working with others. Alexkid can do lots of things like a superhero. He can be a DJ (that's like the person who makes everyone dance at a party), a music maker, a tech expert, and a sound scientist. In the past, he made special music albums that everybody loved. He was also like the DJ boss at famous places where people dance. Like the Rex Club or Watergate. He's part of different music groups, and he's known by big music labels like Rawax, Fuse, Rekids, and other labels with weird names that sound trendy. His music stories are magical. They can make you feel like you're dancing at a concert or dreaming in a magical world, all from listening to his music. Even though he's always looking for the perfect music beat, he's also like a jazz explorer, finding cool sounds even when they seem a little strange. Now, he doesn't travel to parties as much because he's really good at making computer software that he loves, and also has discovered he likes to sleep. He's like a computer music wizard! But sometimes he still makes parties super fun in Berlin at a place called Renate. He makes everyone dance and have a blast. So, even though he's a grown-up now, he's still making music and making people happy.Their RA profile lists Ovum Recordings, F Communications, Freerange Records, Rekids and 6 more.often with Redfreya, HOPPER, Tripmastaz, none of them here that night

the whole biography
Johannes Paluka considers himself a DJ first and foremost, and that is more than just a bullet point on a CV that also credits him as a prolific producer, musician, and remixer. Whether in the studio or behind the decks, the Berlin-based »interuniversal« artist most commonly known as Iron Curtis meanders along the margins of different genres, combining discrete elements while switching things up wholesale with the sort of proactive curiosity that is at the heart of DJing. His various activities follow a »what if ...?« approach: What if we blend these two tracks and let the results mutate further? What if we enrich house music with elements of genre X? What if we eschew the tried-and-tested methods and take a different path for once, if only for the fun of it? Since his debut as a producer in 2008, Paluka has explored different genres and unexpected combinations thereof. His own productions, countless remixes, and collaborations—such as his ongoing series of full-length releases with long-term friend and musical partner Johannes Albert—have consistently strayed from and circled back to the house music sound that is so integral to his own. His 2018 sophomore solo album Upstream Color for Tamed Musiq showed just how far his exploratory drive can lead him when he leans into it: combining his sensibility for the deepest and dustiest of grooves with a penchant for sonic experimentation, the album reflected the breadth of his interests and qualities as a producer with a hazy shimmer. Over the years, Paluka has amassed a broad discography, stylistically ranging from leftfield experiments to broken beats and, of course, dancefloor-ready house music. Besides his collaborative albums with Albert on Frank Music and a slew of releases by the now-defunct acid/electro duo Achterbahn d’Amour, his discography includes numerous EPs and LPs under the name Iron Curtis, as well as various (occasionally anonymous) aliases. He has regularly worked with labels such as Rawax and its Chiwax sublabel, Hudd Traxx, and Permanent Vacation, while also making guest appearances on Running Back, Smallville, and Delusions of Grandeur—further underlining his stylistic flexibility through his tireless work as a remixer. Paluka’s work at a music tech company leaves him little time to tour extensively, but that does not deter him from playing at select international events. He feels most at home in front of crowds who enjoy the pure teachings of the house music gospel just as much as forward-thinking stylistic syncretism. His recent evolution can be traced through the numerous online mixes he has recorded—especially the various sets he has played at HÖR—during which his love for adventurous electronica shines through just as much as his affinity for techno and other styles. Across all of his activities, Paluka always prioritizes the element of surprise over fidelity to a single style, meaning that he combines things while switching them up. He is, after all, first and foremost a DJ: proactively curious—always asking, »What if ...?« ______ Text: Kristoffer Cornils, 2024 Photo: Mareike Gleisbau, 2023Their RA profile lists Mule Electronic, Dirt Crew Recordings, Smallville Records, Morris / Audio and 6 more.often with HOPPER, ACID BOGEN, Monty Luke, none of them here that night
