COMPUTADORA

(bleepstreet records // berlin, germany)

DJ // Saturday/Sunday ~01:00

The sounds come from C64, Amigas & Ataris and the passion comes from the early computer demoscene fanaticism and extensive performing as part of various IDM and electro-constellations through the years. Born in Hamburg, 1976 he discovered the illegal computer scene in Germany and was quite obsessed with it until the mid-90s when he began producing with Amiga computers and focusing primarly on music. Since 2008 he runs Bleepstreet Records and starts DJing and promoting dancefloor chiptune sets mashed up with sweaty electro and techno around European party nights.

ALKAMA

(tpolm ^ calodox // paris, france)

LIVE // Friday/Saturday ~23:30

If you're into lush Tech-House and four-to-the-floor beats, expect some good times boarding captain Alkama's ship on friday night! The ticket is your happy face, and a shaking booty! Born in a Moog, raised in the south of France, sent 5000 years ahead to join the TPOLM family and finally, made a nice and sociable human beeing round the Lake Léman by the Calodox brothers, Alkama is about to land a hectic Live Set.

TOMASAN

([elek´tro:nik mju:zik] // cologne, germany)

DJ // Friday/Saturday ~22:30

Tomasan lives in Cologne and is part of the [elek´tro:nik mju:zik] crew. He's been deejaying since 2006 and has had gigs all over Europe: from Bucharest to Brighton, Berlin to Rotterdam and Dresden to The Hague. During this time, he's played everywhere from basement clubs and festival tents to a moving train, the rooftop of a mall and the bunker of a medieval castle, as well as local and international radio stations.

His bag is always heavy, as he mostly plays vinyl. Tomasan explores genres from Garage and U.S. House to UK Bass and 2-Step swings. And if the vibe fits – some Rap and Hip Hop too.
