The most useless blog ever?

Why? Because you already know who Trentemøller is. He is a fucking genius. One of the most sought after remixers and artists today. He travels the world performing either Live in Concert, or as in this case destroying dancefloors as a DJ. Every bit of his output is different yet phenomenal in its own way. Anders Trentemøller is taking a break from the studio and playing a few DJ gigs this year, of which we were lucky to confirm a show. Don’t miss this.

A Red Rose, A Knife, and various other contraptions are all part of Frivolous’ live act. The fact that this guy can make these objects sound good speaks for his talent. Reboot is also joining in on the festivities so get ready for a sick Cadenza Label Night on Friday.

Saturday is all about the heroes of tomorrow, as we are hosting the Eristoff tracks DJ Contest final. Come and show your support for the next generation of superstars and maybe theyll remember you when theyre famous and youre broke as hell. Our favorite pink daisy duke wearing maniacs from Berlin, Schluck den Druck will be performing live later on in the night..

Bpitch Control > Label Night !

Bpitch is one those labels which truly deserves the moniker “legendary”. The Bpitch seal of approval is reserved for those works, which challenge our perception of the genre. A home for artists such as Paul Kalkbrenner, Sascha Funke, Modeselektor, and the label chief herself Ellen Allien; the label has always been synonymous with quality. Ellen Allien has been DJing professionally since 1993. She began throwing wild ass parties by the name of “BPitch Control” in the nineties and it quickly grew into a label. Nowadays a respected producer as well, Ellen always has something new up her sleeve. Her DJ sets are as difficult to classify as her productions. There’s a bit of electro, a bit of house thrown in for kicks, and there’s definitely a techno aesthetic, which runs through everything she touches. Don’t trouble yourself too much about classifications though; it’s all about good music on Friday, which is guaranteed to be off the wall as she’s bringing labelmates Kiki and Skinnerbox along.

Disco Tales > Chapter #6

Next chapter, new faces, Disco Tales is back with a bang. This time with none other than Visionquest’s Ryan Crosson and Leftfield’s Matt Tolfrey. Two of the most innovative new artists in electronic music recently, they’re a better match for Disco Tales than Cinderella and her slipper. Ryan and his partners in Visionquest have honed a whole new landscape of lush organic techno and have helped launch the careers of leftfield producers such as Tale Of Us and Matthew Burton. He’s gonna be playing back to back with one of the freshest producers out there: Matt Tolfrey. Get ready for the Tale these two will tell on Saturday.

As another new month lies on the horizon at the <><, I find myself having to yet again start with a comment on the weather, such has been the sheer shittiness of those infamous April showers. With exams on the horizon as well, I've gone into a sort of self-imposed exile and curtailed my hedonistic tendencies – but that doesn't mean that you have to! I say that because there's some top quality talent in the form of Özer, Paic and Vienna heroes the Grün bro's kicking the month off with a bang. They'll be followed the week after by the sassy and sartorially sophisticated Deniz Kurtel. Miss Kurtel, it seems, belongs to a select group of Gesamtkünstlerinnen (alongside Craig Richards, for example) for whom playing live is just one succulent fruit in the artistic fruit bowl. Her wicked LED light display for London boutique store Lucy in Disguise is her latest foray into the visual arts, and I've also heard she's designed a pair of jeans. The focus on the 5th will, however, be firmly on her irresistible brand of sexy house.
Speaking of sexy... marked by the charming nonchalance of a budding Seth Troxler and the all-round benevolent beastiness of a young Len Faki (but with a penchant for ranch sauce that outweighs that of all of their Facebook fans combined) is our very own Rick Layer. The cult hero that is Rick Layer was, at least in my (admittedly short sighted) eyes, born in the paradoxically inglorious circumstances of DJ Emerson Todd's 5 minute piss-break last December. With trademark 'special' Vodka-Red Bull in hand and now solidly entering 'Chicago Bulls' mascot mode with a face about as red as a tomato, Rick casually strolled over to the decks and, for about ten seconds, took full advantage of the Australian's need to relieve himself. If, as the saying goes, pictures paint a thousand words, then Rick's composed and collected mastery of the main room mixer's E.Q. in that short space of time must have told the story of a million. The crowd went wild. Rick casually took a sip of his drink and just walked away, before putting his arm on my shoulder and buoyantly blurting out: 'Yeah man, gotta hitt'em with the bass every time'. If you also want to be 'hit with the bass' within the framework of what is Layer's favoured purist techno sound, then make sure to check out the <><'s very own full moon party on 6th May. Slick Rick and his merry band of wolves will be channelling the mysterious power of those lunar rays to provide top quality tunes while you all get royally fucked up on the kitchen floor. I've also heard through the grapevine that if enough of those sexy damsels out there make an appearance, he might get a bit cheeky and go at it topless. There are quite literally no excuses for missing this one!

For the next Turbo, we see DJ Trentemoeller finally returning to Vienna to grace us with a DJ set. No explanations are necessary for the man who is equally adept at destroying dancefloors and churning out Remixes as well as his own productions. Support comes from local legends Ken Hayakawa and Lupo. Get ready for a set containing everything from Rock to Techno bombs.
Team Forelle seem to be pushing the (fishing) boat out in May and really throwing the cat amongst the pigeons with both a DJ'ing contest and a Head 2 Head Rumble in the trout-infested jungle. Let's face it, M.C'ing battles ala 8 Mile are so 2002, so it'll be gloves off for a house and techno boxing match first for the DJ Contest Final on the 19th with Berlin nutters Schluck den Druck making an appearance) and then a local Head2Head battle for local pride on the 25th. On the topic of physical exertion, the London Marathon took place last week – shout out to my mate Bowze, who ran it in a very respectable 3 hours 50 minutes and raised £1300 for Children's Charity 'Rocking Horse'. Now, I don't like marathons, but I do like a marathon set, and the Berlin Sturzkinder Foehn and Jerome, as I keep reiterating, are the specialists of that. They really are Dj'ing equivalent of a couple of Kenyan long-distance sprinters, such is their ridiculous stamina at the decks. They're definitely not the only ones capable of putting a shift in, however, as the amiable 'top geezer' Andy Catana's probable after-hour escapades on the 18th will have demonstrated.
The U.K's also solidly in the house this month. Joining Matt Tolfrey from London will be Moss-Side, Manchester's very own Gerald Simpson. I don't know if I'm in any position to really comment on the undeniable impact of the living legend that is A Guy Called Gerald on the dance music scene in the U.K. and beyond. The reason is that my mother hadn't even conceived me by the time that acid-house great from nineteen eighty eight was laying claim to being the soundtrack for a nationwide 'Second summer of Love'. I unfortunately wasn't around when the Hacienda was at its peak – I blame my dad for meeting my mum about 20 years too late. Actually no, I don't... 'cos had he met her 20 years before he did, he'd have actually been an adolescent paedo, which is definitely not cool. Anyway, if any of you want a better idea of what it was all about at the turn of the decade (when a 'rave' was actually a 'rave' and not a term used by 16 year old girls to describe shitty little get-togethers in tacky bars playing David Guetta) then the Northern Purpose lads might be in a better position to tell you when they're next in town. Taken out of their clearly influential historical context, however, and listened to (perhaps as they always should be) first and foremost as musical productions, A Guy Called Gerald's tunes are just wicked. I'm a particular fan of his work with Graham Massey and Martin Price as '808 State' , especially that post-jam staple tune, the melodic, sax driven number, 'Pacific State' – which reminds me of times in my youth spent playing 'Streets of Rage 2' on the Sega Mega Drive. Drop in on the last Sunday of the month for a dose of musical history, and get jiggy to Gerald. <><

This Friday Mobilee will be invading the Grelle Forelle when Pan Pot, Anja Schneider and Sebo K take over the building at Turbo. On Saturday we recline in style as our monthly hiccup gathering sees our residents Foehn & Jerome welcome guests Larsson and youANDme to their Café Sturz!
On Friday Turbo will be presenting a Mobilee Showcase at the Grelle Forelle as part of the Mobilee Back to Back 2012 Tour Celebrating Pan Pot. Label head and DJane Anja Scheider, golden boy Sebo K and of course the masters of the show Pan Pot themselves will be taking the club by storm in a hat-trick of performances behind the decks.
Prepare to get lost in that unique and wonderful microcosm of sound, light and smoke which embodies our dancefloor - its Turbo x Mobilee!

Details Friday: The screening of 'Mobilee Back to Back 2012 Tour Celebrating Pan Pot' will take place at the Club. Doors will be open from 21:00 - 21:45. The film starts at 21:30. There will be free popcorn as well as drinks available at the bar as usual. We will go from movie watching to party going in one swift Turbo speed move.

On Saturday night Foehn & Jerome will open the gates of the Grelle Forelle to their monthly eleganza bonanza Café Sturz. This time they have invited Rotary Cocktail artists Larsson and youANDme. Born and raised in Berlin, youANDme express the vibe of an era long before the party tourists had turned their vacation in the city into a permanent stay - their sound reflects the glory days of old Berlin in its bloom. The very deep and soulful sound of youANDme has made them one of the most sought after remixers. Behind the decks they are impervious to peril and experiment with mixing in techno or dub as they see fit. Bremen born Larsson is one of the smoothest DJs and producers out there. His musical developments in productions, live sets and DJ sets are marked with changing styles and atmospheres which manifest Larssons innovative sounds.

Leading the tumbling way through the enchanted night will be our residents Foehn & Jerome known for pulling shapes from the bottomless pit of deephouse and inspiring jubulance, hijinks & youthful folly in general.
Arm yourself for a Turbo Sturz.

Don't wet your pants - we have a big weekend in stall for you. On Friday Davide Squillace and Shlomi Aber will be representing at Grelle Nacht. And on Saturday we bring you the premier of Harpoons & Torpedoes with the masterly DJ T and Fur Coat all the way from Caracas, Venezuela.
This Friday we are excited to have Davide Squillace and Shlomi Aber playing at Grelle Nacht. Italian born Squillace, global jet setter famous for his residency at Circo Loco in DC10 is known for his unique style of combining no-fuss techno with funky house tunes. The Israeli born Shlomi Aber, child of the 90s Tel Aviv underground techno scene produces music ranging from groovy house to more mechanical techno. The two have produced countless tracks in the last few years, and have played a massive role in the ever changing world of tech house. Its rare for these two jetsetters to be at the same place at the same time so make sure you are there when the bass is turned up on the mainfloor on Friday.
On Saturday we have an explosive night to share with you, the premier of Harpoons & Torpedoes (brainchild of < > < Art Director (S.Tsup) & < > < Booker (Rick Layer). For their opening party they have invited seasoned Berlin techno authority DJ T - know for his 20+ years on the circuit and in the scene as a label head (Get Physical), Club Owner (Monza), and as chief editor of Groove Magazine. Also in the house upcoming furry fantasists from Caracas: Fur Coat who have catapulted into the party stratosphere with their recent releases on Crosstown Rebels being played up and down in dance temples the world over.
To enable as many of you as possible to join we are making a special offer. Everyone who shows up at the door wearing a Fur Coat can feel free to skip the line like a pimp and pay (our all time low) 9 euros instead of 14 euros. Where is the catch? No checking your fur coat at the wardrobe - furry action all night - lets get sweaty! Wearing a Fur Coat and being a douchebag at the door will still not grant you entrance.
To get you loosey goosey for the dancefloor we have mixed up an enticing South American inspired double trouble harpoon & torpedo shot which you will need both hands to drink.
For more of the saucy details and the additional line-ups for the upcoming events visit our program
Naked fur protestors as well as reasonable people in faux fur more than welcome! Lets dance.

This weekend we welcome Sandwell District, techno dames Electric Indigo & Irradiation as well as Paris' Dyed Soundorom & Aquarius Heaven to our aquarium.
On Friday at Meuterei the veritable antichrists of the techno underground Regis & Function who make up Sandwell District will be taking the stage with Austrian electronic goddesses Electric Indigo & Irradiation. Known for their high acclaim and devotion from fellow DJs (Marcel Dettmann, Ben Klock, Len Faki, Miss Kittin, Jeff Mills etc.) Sandwell District have not just blurred the boundaries of techno, but have dissolved them and re-built it in their own unique image. Electric Indigo & Irradiation are of Austrian descent yet have enjoyed international success during their many years in the electronic music scene, come to enjoy their electrifying live set as they tune up and we get down Friday night style.
In Chapter 5, Disco Tales takes a plunge into the aquatic depths of deephouse. On Saturday the Grelle Forelle will become an underwater garden of starfish and corals to tickle your eardrums' fancy. Bringing some funky fresh sounds will be Paris' Rex club and Circo Loco resident Dyed Soundorom. He will be playing his rebellious vinyls and bringing us some of that very sought after Apollonia sound which he produces together with Dan Ghenacia and Shonky. Aquarius Heaven will be performing Live bringing his soulful, grungy voice and his colourful rastafari, hip hop background and Circus Company influence to the decks. Come to feel the authentic sound of some of his recent DJ chart stormers like 'Universe' and 'Can't buy love' as this upcoming DJ shows us what he's working with.
Let's take a deep breath and get ready to make some big waves as the city's hottest soundsystem sizzles with a cool sea splash.

In the first weekend of April we have Jennifer Cardini, Tim Green, Matthew Dekay & Droog to get us in tune to Springing and romping this 2012.
France, you have so much to give. Once again we welcome a talented artist from the French capital. Jennifer Cardini is a Rex club resident as well as underground techno veteran of the Parisian scene. She has been active over the past 15 years and we are excited to be able to welcome her in Vienna this Friday along with the London based Tim Green. This insanely talented young man mesmerizes the crowd with hypnotic grooves consisting of an eclectic mix of musical tastes ranging from jazz to rock. He is known for his talent as a producer (DJ Mag best producer 2010 award winner) as well as his DJ sets.
Hailing from Haarlem Holland Matthew Dekay represents one half of 'All Day I Dream' along with studio partner and fellow troubadour UK legend Lee Burridge. His training as a classical musician has had a major influence on his career and he is respected for both his quality productions and high energy live performances which over the past decade he has played to crowds all over the world
Despite being considered as relative newcomers on the scene the young trio of men which compromises Droog have massively shaken up the game in their short 6 years as a DJ collective. They have become known for their parties which have featured major acts in the international house and techno scene, as well as holding mastermind showcases at festivals like WMC, BPM & Sonar just to mention a few. They have held down a residency at Avalon in Hollywood (one of the biggest clubs in the US) and in 2009 launched the LA-based record label Culprit which has built steady momentum with successful releases. 2011 was an exciting yeah which saw Droog collaborating with the Crosstown rebels to high acclaim.
April is known to be a changeable bitch weatherize but what we can guarantee is a consistent shower of light at the Grelle Forelle with a steady outpour of smoke and deep dirty sound oozing with intercontinental sexiness.

<><

Mr.F - our gregarious and tasteful raver from old blightey is here to give us his view on the upcoming monthly acts at the Grelle Forelle. Situated somewhere in the thriving metropolitan of the Queen's capital, London town, sits a well heeled young gent with a fag in hand and thoughts in his mind of the most peculiar kind: neon trout thoughts.
As the weather on Her Britannic Majesty's shores flitters been the fucking freezing and the bloody boiling, (giving life in Old Blighty an air of unpredictability) you can be somewhat more sure of the undeniable fact that all you Wieners are in for a top notch month at the <>< this April.
It's always nice to see a lady gracing the decks, and after Kraviz' unfortunate no-show a few months ago, Jennifer Cardini looks set to be one of the first handful of dames to do so at the Grelle Forelle - while also marking an extension of the recent Forelle penchant for French acts that has seen Shonky, dOP, Seuil (to name but a few) wreak havoc at our beloved trout. This month sees Dyed Soundorom take to the decks at the Forelle, following a smashing set by DC-10 buddy Dan Ghenacia a few months ago. Launching this month is the exquisitely named “harpoons and torpedoes” – underwater annihilation by means of deep and sexy house. First to pull the trigger straight into your bass face will be smooth operators Fur Coat and DJ T. I haven't actually seen these guys whip out a set yet, but might be catching the former in London at the beginning of the month. It will be quality night in Vienna especially for those who like it deep and textured.
Now I don't know about you, but I've increasingly found myself dreaming all day about the prospect of chirpsing a leggy blonde while listening to Droog at a Culprit Sessions rooftop party at the Standard Hotel in LA. For the time being, however, I'll have to make do with grainy youtube videos of these legendary parties, although all you Vienna folk will get the not-to-be-missed chance to experience the layered and dreamy Droog sound through the beast that is the club's main sound system. I bet you won't be able to know what's hit you when you get to grips with the fact that Matthew Dekay will also be spreading the love with his eclectic grooves and contagious enthusiasm. Dekay has recently launched his fascinating “All Day I Dream” imprint with one of my favourite DJ's, Lee Burridge. The Forelle terrace deserves to one day bear witness to a few sunny hours of back-to-back melancholic house mastery by these two “soulmates”. Burridge masterminded a morning of psychomagic splendour at Burning Man last summer which will remain etched in my memory for years to come, and it would be interesting to see the extent to which Dekay's Forelle set will draw on the really unique sound that lies at the core of the duo's new project.
No month at the <>< would be the same without the club's favourite reprobates – Foehn and Jerome, serving you some irresistible Kreuzberg doses of Sturzkaffee at Cafe Sturz. I sincerely hope that none of you partygoers are going to get weak towards the end of the night because cheeky afters in the psychedelic kitchen will be what it's about. It's going to go off massively so make sure you are charged till the very end! Trust me, a marathon after-hour with these two is an absolute joy to behold, so make sure your there from the very first Foehn fist-pump. If you missed Southampton chap Zabiela's last stop over in the VIE around this time last year at a previous Turbo event, then you have no excuses not to drop in to the Forelle at the end of the month for a cosmic dose of an array of broken beats at a slightly faster BPM than you might be used to. The more eagle eyed amongst you will be able to see past the infamous turbocharged Forelle Nebel machine and bear witness to James doing things with Zabiela Gatertronic 3000 app on his iPad which even the late Steve Jobs could not have considered possible.
So if you're in the mood then don't hesitate to take advantage of the quality few weeks that's on offer at the <>< in April. If it weren't for the trivial matter of a mere 800 miles that lie between me and Spittelauer Lände 12 then I'd also be out and about on the trout as well! A comprehensive overview of all that's going down will always lie beyond the scope of our correspondence, but I hope I've at least whet your palate for a bit of fresh fish...

On Friday night the Berghain ambassadors come to raise their flag in Vienna, and on Saturday it will get classically Sturz.
This Friday we will get super grimy and extra hard as Kanal Royal welcomes the Ostgut Ton ambassadors straight from the flaming bowels of Berghain into the cool waters of the Grelle Forelle. Detroit native and one half of the highly reputed Spectral sound label; Ryan Elliot plays lean, bassline-driven techno and house reduced to their essence in true motor city fashion. Renowned DJ and producer Marcel Fengler mixes hard and consistent yet surprisingly emotional sets filled with concentrated passion for techno music. Berghain resident since Day 1, Norman Nodge plays rolling techno colliding with relentlessly classy house - leading a Clark Kentian lifestyle he is uniquely a Lawyer by day and a dynamite DJ by night. Together they compromise 3 horsemen of the techno apocalypse, riding into town to set the club alight. Come prepared with ultra powers, excess motivation and lots of worries to merrily dance away to these affirmative techno badasses.
On Saturday the well-heeled genteel of the city will get trippy and sturzig in true Viennese fashion as our regular trouble makers Foehn & Jerome welcome the Polish Marcin Czubala and Gorge to their coffee party. Mobilee Records maestro Marcin Czubala has roots deeply set in classical music and whips out unpredictable twists and amazing grooves during his DJ sets. The famed remixer and co-found of 8-bit Records (along with Nick Curly) Gorge has been hunting music in all variations for a good 20 years now and has settled for a club friendly deep-house which penetrates souls - feeble and firm alike. Graceful as a Cafe Sturz may begin, once that mean baseline sets in you know your suspenders and bowtie will loosen up and your bowler hat will come rolling off as you slowly lose coherence and tap into the alternate dancing dimension. Ever a lady, ever a gent, ever a stuttering muttering full-faced grinning sturz.

Join us in welcoming the berghainian delegation and the sturz troupe for some hip-swinging, tip-tapping a general tasting of the profuse nocturnal amusements out there.

Also: keep an eye out for our NEW April booklets!

We have a truly spectacular weekend in stall for you! Lets get dOP/E!
This Friday Turbo presents: France's sexiest export: dOP! Bar25 legend: Acid Pauli! Her Majesty's vinyl heros: Brendan Clark & Carl Hardy as well as our very own Harry Krishner (< > <)!
After some great live performances in the club so far with Die Voegel stagediving just last weekend, and Pupkulies & Rebecca performing in late December - its time for us to unpack our stage on the dancefloor for the first time EVER! dOP are known for their excessive and high energy performances, with their lead man singing his sultry funky vocals and his pals on the decks/instruments hammering into your heartbeat. It is nothing short of an honor being part of this performance! Do not miss it!
Acid (PaulI) is a powerful hallucinogenic drug that alters your perception of the outside world. Acid (PaulI) can turn you into a gibbering, giggling wreck, make the world seem like a magical place, and in one sublime experience, even make Cardiff City's football ground look like the San Siro stadium.
On Saturday night some original gangsters will be stepping into the Grelle Forelle. In cooperation with austrian radio channel FM4 & the Red Bull Music Academy we humbly present to you: 4 time grammy award winning producer and musical mastermind - Kenny Dope! His Dopeness has worked with muscial artists from genres spanning from Hip Hop to Latin Jazz to House. Working with the likes of Micheal Jackson, Madonna, Kanye West & Raekwon the Chef just to name a few. He will be teaming up with Rasheed Chappell who is in the words of Kenny: "a true MC & the artist I have waited my whole career to work with".
If you want to see some dancing fish run your mouse over the black section on either side of this text! What happens when you mix up some dOP/E with a dose of Acid (Pauli)? Come and join the experiment to find out...

<><

On Friday grimey revolutionaries hearts will bleed as they dance to the sounds of Nicolas Masseyeff, Andreas Henneberg & Die Voegel.
On Saturday the thugfucking skies will open up and pour out with pure divinity as Thugfucker and Pier Bucci step behind the decks.
The French Riviera isn’t exactly where one would expect to find quality Techno, but it is precisely where one would find a mutiny.
Between the Bentleys and Lamborghinis Nicolas Masseyeff forged his rough uncompromising sound which has the appeal, rigor and crunch of someone stealing a Mercedes star.
Andreas Henneberg, one of electronic musics most productive people, will bring his old school Berlin sound that cuts through his productions and DJ sets due to his 15 year long stint on the circuit.
These two distinct masterminds from the 'Herzblut' label will be performing along with the enigmatic show from Die Vögel who incorporate classical instruments and lots of experienced madness into their Live set. Also in the mix: Christopher Groove - large Austrian DJ & Producer at large.


This Saturday St.Patricks day just got more ridiculous. We will see the americas represented on a grand scale.
With Thugfucker from New York and the Chilean Pier Bucci.
Thugfucker is compromised of Holmar; a former icelandic security specialist, and Greg a former international aid worker come model.
Basically a DJ duo straight out of a James Bond film, with a musical score that could take on any villain. Pier Bucci produces lush rhythms & colourful melodies, wrapped inside elegant techno, with a hint of german efficiency, all tied together with a latin twist.
Like his friends and countrymen Luciano and Villalobos he combines electronica with the organic sounds of South America.


This message will self-destruct in 3...2...1.....

Pascal Feos, Minicoolboyz, Shonky & DJ W!LD- lets get grell.
On Friday during Grelle Nacht we will be getting into some heavy minimal Techno. Frankfurt's old school pioneer Pascal Feos, known for his legendary productions and DJ sets will be setting the tone for the Italian Minicoolboyz - who are known for blending old and new technologies and redefining the gap between a live act and DJ set.

On Saturday we are heading back into the disco forest for the 4th chapter of Disco Tales. Delivering the franco-fun will be Shonky who has been in the game since 98' and is bringing it big on his new label Appolonia since earlier this year.

Later in the evening it will get deeper, darker and sexier when Cocoon DJ and Circoloco resident DJ

W!ld gets behind the decks to play his freaky acid house music.

There will be tasty new snacks on the kitchenfloor and our terrific March minimags for you to take home. See you on the dancefloor.

<><

Saturday during the day we will be hosting a flea market, and on Saturday night its back to monkey businessing as usual.
Our first ever daytime event will be taking place this Saturday between 12:00 - 20:00! We are happy to host: Lieblingsflohmarkt - a curated flea market with vintage, designware and lots of VINYL! Stop by to check out all the interesting stands and listen to the always groovy Harry Krishner (<>< ) playing all day long. Hang out, browse around, bag a bargain and have a bite of Viennas tastiest waffles!

Polite and mild-mannered by day but always rowdy and dynamic by night - as of 23:00 the doors will be open to welcome dancers for Grelle Nacht. We are excited to be heating up the house to the magnificent sounds of the trio that comprises My Favourite Robot (My Favourite Robot Rec, Visionquest) - come all the way from Toronto!

Do the robot!

<><

Man over board!
This Friday Manøver will be setting sail for the first time at the Grelle Forelle. Conceptualised by the creative powerhouse that is Neon Golden - rest assured that a well-rounded experience will ensue - atmosphere, ambience and sound all boiling down into one grand nautical salute.

The Mothership will be reared by the infamous German Sascha Funke (Kompakt, Berlin) & our Austrian local Beppo Ton (Schoenbrunner Perlen, Vienna).

Bringing the caboose to a roaring, sweating, tingling, implosion will be Joachim Spieth (Affin, Kompakt, Stuttgart) and the Manøver Crew (Austria) personally.

Take a beautiful landrat into your arm, swing a mug of rum and smile your toothless smile. Full steam ahead!

A great Nu weekend is about to commence.
Its time to lace up your dancing shoes (your Sneakers that is).
We are opening up the club doors this Friday to our monthly extravaganza Café Sturz! Our esteemed guests: Nu who will be playing LIVE! and David Dorad (both on the Bar25 Label) will be joining us along with our very own Berlin-based Café Sturz residents Foehn & Jerome. A Café Sturz is often sporadic, seldom elegant but ALWAYS sturztastic.

On Saturday we will be getting cheeky on the main floor. The big boy of House music will be bringing in a funky fresh gust straight from the heart of the windy city: the one and only DJ Sneak visiting us as part of the Fabric CD tour. And if you thought our psychedelic kitchen floor couldn't get any more raucous, you thought wrong. Clemens Neufeld and his Space Jungle will be laying it on you like bobby on whitney - rough and merciless all night long.

HOT STUFF FRESH OFF THE PRESS: the brand new copies of our March MiniMag will be available in the club!

<><

We are heading straight into the vortex of a dizzying storm on the high seas this weekend with the debut of Meuterei this Friday and the deserved arrival in paradise on Saturday with a warm serving of Bouillabaise.
There have been whisperings below deck of a mutiny to take place at the Grelle Forelle and finally the day has come. Leading the Meuterei to overthrow the Captain of Mediocrity is the dirty, feared, and honored buccaneer Len Faki with his faithful, bystanding scallywags DVS1 & Piemont (among other scoundrels behind the decks). As the shark infested waters welcome the plank walking captain, we celebrate so furiously as to scare the angry sea itself.

After a successful mutiny what is the best way to celebrate? Of course by sailing straight to paradise and dining in class like once the greedy captain alone with a tasty Bouillabaise. Serving up the hotness will be Noir, Patrick Chardronnet, Avatism, Violett and the loony local island DJ from Do Easy Records.

Come to support the rebellion, stay for the freedom of the new regime. Yo-Hoooo!

<><

Last Friday we stood witness as Marc Houle & Fabrizio Maurizi (alongside local backup from the Manøver artists & their surprise act Deepchild!) gave Turbo a whole new definition. Just when we thought we'd seen it all we watched in awe as the mighty Perlon pervert ARK & Karats Le K ignited the club with mass euphoria, and pushed the ever-energetic club goers (and the demonic sound system) to their maximum capacity.

This weekend we are introducing our very potent and exclusive show: Extra Kaviar on Friday and the premier of the paranormal Disco Tales at the Grelle Forelle on Saturday.

<><

A heavy weekend with some seriously sensational acts awaits us, rest your bones - you will have ants in your pants all weekend long.
We are confident that everyone has regained their energy after the endless bliss last weekend which saw Dan Ghenacia and Seuil spontaneously take on an extra 4 hours back to back behind the decks.

In that spirit: on Friday night Turbo is back - never failing to take it to another level of disturbing madness, the nights acts are: Marc Houle (Items & Things / M-nus) and Fabrizio Maurizi (M-nus). The Canadian and Italian techno heroes are known for their raw, deep and dark tunes - ready to turn even the most sensible crowd into a raging pit of rhythmic animals.

On Saturday night we prepare for a French invasion, as the divine countrymen ARK & Le K (Circus Company, Perlon, Karat) step behind the 1's & 2's to dazzle with their cheeky, bizarre, energetic, oddball sound. ARK - a true mad hatter, is admired by many as veritable pioneer of the experimental/minimal house genre in France and has been relentless over the last 10 years - spreading his infectious energy and continuously innovating. Le Ks avant-guard career is punctuated by an ever eclectic sound and the popular receiving of his dynamic live act which he will perform on Saturday night!

Music lovers rejoice, we are ending January with some spectacular highlights who will take your poor sorry legs prisoner on the dance floor.

This Saturday we host the first of many clubnights dedicated to outstanding DJ twosomes worldwide.
Jumping in spontaneously to fill his place at the decks will be the Italian stallion UTO KAREM ( Agile rec. / Plus8 / Napoli / IT )! We will be welcoming him alongside DANIEL STEFANIK ( Coccoon / Freude am Tanzen / Leipzig / DE ). Come to witness the unveiling of our Kitchenfloor, and see what happens when sad white walls take a dip of psychedelics and get radical! On Saturday night we will be dancing to the exquisite tunes of DANIEL BORTZ & ZANDER VT ( Suol, Berlin ).
