    their own biography

    the whole biography
    Born near Cologne, Germany in the early 80's, Dompe developed a taste for beats very early on and just as quickly the pots, pans and wooden spoons were abducted from the kitchen so he could practice drumming with them. It really did not take long before a drum set was under the Christmas tree. Inspired by Nirvana and Metallica, he drove the neighborhood crazy with his practicing! Then in 1996, Dompe made a new discovery: Vinyl. His amazment at how such a small needle brought such huge, dancefloor rocking beats to life was indescribable! The drums were quickly traded in for turntables and a mixer. And after the first few visits to the Warehouse, (a club in Cologne, Germany), Dompe had nothing but 4 to floor beats in his ears. He survived countless hours of mixing records in his living room until he got his first gigs. He, at the same time, worked on his sound and refined his skills as a producer and sound designer. 2008 was the year when everything changed: Dompe started throwing his own parties at ElektroKüche (Cologne, Germany) and soon after became a resident at the club. These days he can be found behind the decks at Legendary clubs and parties such as: Area at Tresor (Berlin), Douala or Nature One. His tracks also started catching the ears of such respected and talent djs and producer like: Laurent Garnier, Richie Hawtin, Paco Osuna or Someone Else. He has released tight tracks and remixes on: Pentagonik, RheinTime, Impulse Music and Italo Business. "Beat Back", Dompe's new album, drops mid 2011. He makes it clear on this release,"Whatever that may come, will come. Just rave on.

    their own biography

    the whole biography
    The Berlin based Nikklaas is not only more or less known as a DJ, but also behind the scenes, where he works for various projects, events & clubs. While DJing, he likes to take the audience with him and present his definition of electronic music, where house always forming the basis. His musical trademarks are definitely his always fresh and playful or all night long sets, in which diverse influences and a good portion of variety are always present. Ultimately the right mix of many things and a guarantee for nice vibes. The resident of Bulbul Berlin (formerly known as Farbfernseher) & founder of The Unknown has been an integral part of the scene and numerous line-ups for over a decade. In addition to many played venues and festivals in his hood, such as Sisyphos, Renate, Kater Blau, RSO, Feel Festival, Wilde Möhre Festival, Bucht der Träumer, Griessmuehle, Ipse, to name a few, there are many further stations in Germany, Europe and Asia. Other cornerstones are certainly also his many years of involvement with the collective Telekollegen, the former curation of the open-air-place Ein Stück vom Glück (ex-terrace of Maria am Ostbahnhof), as well as many other different event series over the years that he has supervised and his permanent DJ residencies in various clubs.
