Special guest on this event is very fittingly Dj Vela ( please write your affiliations ). Vela reveals the potential of music: Diving into the flow of a dense electronic texture of tech house, deep house, breaks and techno, she creates a space of freedom. Here sound rules the world. Constraints fall away. The social rulebook shatters on the ground of the facts of all-encompassing sound power. The spirit of a long international music history, a co-creator of the underground and her involvement in FLINTA* initiatives can be felt here.
As one of the original Dangerous Drums Djs , she very quickly identified some shortcomings in the business side of thigs. She got involved with every aspect of running a monthly 2 floor event with international guests on pretty much every line up, and subsequently ran the show in every respect and the label of the same name that inevitably followed. All of this on top of her Dj career which resulted in her being booked all over the world, commissioned by adidas to produce their anthem for their world cup/olympics campaigns, releasing her own tracks and being invited, to Dj a soundrack for a stage show that was of tremendous cultural significance and importance at the time, revealing as it did for the frst time the true scale and severity of the conflicts raging between different immigrant ethnicities in Berlin. Vela in effect ran Dangerous Drums as a succesfull event series staged nearly 100 times in several different countries, its label that released material by dozens of artists, many making their debut on the label ( for example Marten Hørger) as well as internationally succesfull artists like Marusha, without compomising the quality, momentum and artistic credibility of of her Dj career. If ever there was an unsung hero it is DJ Vea wihout whom it is generaly acknowledged the dangerous drums success story spanning 20+ years would likely have been over after three or for events. Whatever she decides to play on October 10 in Eschschloraque, you can be sure it will be a stand out performance from a dedicated, experienced and internationally acclaimed Berlin Dj.

Corin has always seen Radio as one of the most important factors in a Dj Culture that should be a Transporter of New Ideas and Attitudes, and likewise an ever evolving always fresh to the ears and irresistible to the feet Soundtrack for those new ideas and attitudes.

Being born in the late 1950s in London he grew up with his Mother listening to the then new and exciting Radio 1 heavy on the pop of the day, the Rolling Stones, the Kinks, the Beatles, during the day and the Soul soundtrack to life that his Father prefered in the evenings. Stax, Motown, Otis Redding, Ray Charles...he showed corin how he recorded 4 hour tape reels of the pirate radio ship carioline and then went through the reel splicing the tape to take out all but the essential tunes of the moment. Beat matched to boot! John Peel played an immense role in Corins musical education and thereafter the Pirate stations were running things.
Moving to Berlin in 89, there have been Ed2000 radio shows continuously since 1994. Radio is where the avant garde in any new sound and lifestyle will be heard by most people first, as only very few will actually be in the hotspot where anything innovative starts to gain momentum. Corin currently has two reguar radio shows, Dub Intervention fortnightly on The Face Radio Bkn, New York and Dangerous Drums: A New Chapter on Berlins Cashmere Radio. Both in their own way carry the message that can never be heard to often.
It Began in Africa and it is the vibrant and core elements of the sounds that are the hallmark of his two shows that will be presented at the point where soundwise they do indedéd meet, from the sample laden sonics of Dub Intervention to the varied Bass styles that are todays cuttíng edge call to the dance floor. Right now Ed2000s favorite artists are Lukado from South Africa, with his take on Amapiano which is simply out there in a space of its own and Jon E Cash, the founder of Grime who is fusing elements from traditional and current acfrocentric beats into a new style all of its own. As a reference regards what to expect musically, as well as the insistent rhythms and basslines of Hodge, Corins third favorite artists here and now, with a ramped up dub presence via software hardware and samples a plenty and you have an idea of where this may be going. On a good night that will sometimes be somewhere both deeply familiar and at the same time somwhere neither the dj or the guests have been before..
