hey friends,

on the 6th of July i played a dj-set in Stadpark Lichtenberg: pinkdot-life.de organised the The 3rd Queer Art and Culture Days

loved everything about it – beautiful people, beautiful atmosphere and amazingly well-done production!

i enjoyed even the process of preparation! my biggest thankyous to artists who inspire me!

buying music from those artists is also a pleasure for me, cause i know what kind of hard work the do and i appreciate their art endlessly.

it was an enormous pleasure to discover some new tracks that my beloved artists released – thank you, Queen Róisín for releasing the remix album right in time for my set!; or rediscover new favourites from a true ‘queer classic’ albums like ‘Rub’ – huge thank you to Peaches for her music and her support of trans rights!

i am also totally in love with Charlotte Adigéry & Bolis Pupul – starting the set with their ‘Mantra’ just felt sooo right!

please don’t use sp(*)tify if you can afford buying music

million thanks to everyone who worked at this event & everyone who came there to support our community & have fun with us!

also a little hint to potentially interested promoters – when you pay fair price for a show, i can afford buying new music and all preparations become a pleasure, like in this case.

love,

gene
