Hannes & Holger met behind the decks in spring 2008 at one of those openair parties which start as a gathering of friends and overflow in a park-rave of thousand euphoric people. Since then Hannes & Holger concentrate their energies on their collaboration: AKA AKA. Under contract with Oliver Koletzki’s label Stil vor Talent, March 2009 saw their debut 'Voegeln EP' released and supported by artists like Dubfire, Claude VonStroke and Troy Pierce. Their track 'Woody Woodpecker' stayed for one month on the Beatport minimal charts at place 1 and also the vinyl version hopped from 0 to 1 by release day on decks.de. In May 2010 it was awarded the with the 3rd place of the annual Beatport Music Awards in the category „best track minimal“. Also their 2nd and 3rd release on Stil vor Talent being played by Luciano, Adam Byer, Sharam (Deep Dish)Gus Gus and many more became a huge success. In October 2009 they started their own label Burlesque Musique which focuses on on non-conform minimal and techhouse influenced by swing, jazz, balkan, funk and other funny but danceable music. Besides Burlesque Musique they run the already since 2005 established music and party label Pentagonik. Known for their driving liveact and DJset the two play in most of Berlin's clubs like Arenaclub, Watergate, Maria, Tresor or Ritter Butzke. Travelling around Europe they visited clubs in Zurich, Madrid, Moscow, Turin, Vienna, Cologne, Hamburg, Munich etc. In March 2010 they played their first live performance at Watergate featuring their trumpeter Thalstroem who plays the trumpet and the Electronic Wind Instrument which adds a new floating layer to their music. Together with Thalstroem AKA AKA produced their debut album which will be released on the 30th of May 2011 on Burlesque Musique.Recently at Beate Uwe, Ritter Butzke · often with Running Order, ab 20 Uhr, Sascha Braemer, none of them here that night
“Her sets are driving, physical and rhythm-focused, built on flow rather than peak-time moments.”
their own biography
the whole biography
Her sets are driving, physical and rhythm-focused, built on flow rather than peak-time moments. With a clear focus on groove, she builds dense, hypnotic energy on the dancefloor. Depending on the context, she also plays faster house or occasional trance/bounce sets — approaching each performance as a context-driven selection rather than blending genres within one set. Since then, she has performed at venues such as Aeden, Club Ost, Klunkerkranich and About Blank, as well as at CSD, Zug der Liebe and various open airs.Recently at Golden Flamingo, ://about blank, Void Club · often with ZÖ (1), myzelia, JUWLZ, none of them here that night
