Berlin based dj / producer Oliver Deutschmann has made his mark in recent years by running and releasing on the imprints Falkplatz and Vidab, his long memorable sets at Panorama Bar / Berghain, and numerous releases and remixes for the likes of Soma, AIM, or JackOff to name a few. His uncompromising selections range from deep dubby house to big room techno, keeping the pulse on new sounds while always paying respect to the past, which can also be heard in productions on his collaborations with Ed Davenport, or monikers Gowentgone and SubBroomAssosciation. Last year Deutschmann spent most of his weekends touring the world from Japan, across Germany and Europe, to the middle east reaching cities like Beirut and Tel Aviv, while playing festivals like Sonar and BerMuDa. He is currently spending his off days building a new studio in Berlin, working on new releases and collaborations, and the development of his A&R skills. In 2012 Oliver Deutschmann is keeping up with modern technology, and is set to release a new enhanced multimedia package which will include two cds, vinyl singles, and videos on SLIM Audio featuring exclusive mix and tracks. Also in the pipeline are releases for AIM, Falkplatz, and Vidab. http://www.residentadvisor.net/event.aspx?374233

Ghosts on Tape likes raving. Mind you, not the glowstick-powered, trance-laden nonsense that masquerades as raving these days. The San Francisco resident wants the real thing: dark warehouses, big soundsystems, sweaty walls and even sweatier bodies, and the pulsing sounds of gritty house and techno. It’s those kinds of sounds that Ghosts on Tape (a.k.a. Ryan Merry) assembles on his dual Yamaha SU700 samplers. Although the ’90s-era machines are undeniably antiquated—new sounds literally have be loaded on the fly via floppy disk—he’s thoroughly mastered these vintage weapons, putting together jaw-dropping live sets that combine the ominous underbelly of classic house and techno with upfront, bass-heavy futurism. Those sonic principles also drive ICEE HOT, the influential monthly party in San Francisco which Ghosts on Tape co-founded and where he continues to serve as a resident DJ. 

A native of St. Louis, Ghosts on Tape relocated to San Francisco in 2003 and began garnering attention for his blistering DJ and live sets and the warped, occasionally tropical-flavored bass sounds he was creating. His 2009 Predator Mode EP on Wireblock—which included a white-hot Roska remix of the title track—exploded Ghosts on Tape’s profile even further, as did an exclusive mix for Mary Anne Hobbs’ BBC Radio 1 show, and remixes for the likes of Rainbow Arabia, Lemonade, Cardopusher, Chrissy Murderbot, Subeena, Mexicans with Guns, Thunderball, among others. In 2011, he was selected to be a participant in the Red Bull Music Academy in Madrid. His sound has evolved over the years, moving away from equatorial beats and back towards his Midwestern house and techno roots, but one thing hasn’t changed: Ghosts on Tape likes raving. bio by Shawn Reynaldo

Rich Korach discovered underground electronic music in 1994, finally encountering the sound that would transform the rest of his life. Growing up just north of Detroit, Rich witnessed performances from some of the early pioneers of techno. Shortly after immersing himself in the underground warehouse scene in Detroit, he became an active DJ himself. The next decade included such highlights as: being a resident DJ for Detroit’s legendary production company, Paxahau, playing gigs at: the Detroit Electronic Music Festival (2005 and 2008), Space – Ibiza, Weekend Club – Berlin, and all across the U.S. Rich even had an impromptu tag session with one of his musical heroes of the time, Richie Hawtin, in 2005. - In late 2008, Rich moved to San Francisco to thwart the cold and live in one of the most diverse and beautiful cities in America. Since then, his performances in the Bay Area underground have caused quite the stir, resulting in a residency with promotions powerhouse As You Like It (AYLI) and a steadily increasing demand for performances. In 2011 he played alongside a wealth of artists, including Tiger and Woods, Deniz Kurtel, Iron Curtis, Matthias Tanzmann, Benoit & Sergio, Dave Aju, Mike Huckaby, Nicolas Jaar, and Lee Curtiss. To say Rich Korach’s sound is an instant classic is understood to those who’ve become converts to his shows. His is an insatiable appetite for the unexpected, which makes watching his next move upward and onward such a joy. - Recorded using Traktor Scratch Pro with vinyl control and a KONTROL X1 for effects/looping.

Title of the mix: P-Play's Scheiße Minelli. Track-listing coming soon. Bio: Co-Founder of Honey Soundsytem and part owner of Discaire Records. "DJ P-Play possesses the sort of mentality that keeps San Francisco's club-and cultural-scene vital. When he saw a nightlife void, instead of bitching about it, he went after filling it. And when one bar told him no, he started up a whole collective of like-minded DJs to do forward-thinking events at other clubs, pulling like-minded music lovers into his hive. Pee Play is a co-founder of Honey Soundsystem, a crew of party pros wanting to instigate an edgy alternative to the Castro scene. They've spread their vinyl across SOMA, the Tenderloin, and the world." - Jennifer Maerz of SF WEEKLY Selected Discography: Street Hero - End of The World (Honey Soundsystem Remix) [HNYTRX] Alexis - Lonely Sea (Honey Soundsystem Remix) [HNYTRX] Mankind - Come Go (Honey Soundsystem Remix) [Third Strike Records] Body Language - Falling Out (Honey Soundsystem Remix) [Smoke & Mirrors]
