WhoMadeWho - Never Alone (Patrice Bäumel Remix)
Spectacular New Year fireworks light up London sky as huge crowds celebrate across UK for first time in three years
WhoMadeWho are an exciting and hugely popular band from Copenhagen with a sound that sits comfortably between Electronic and Indie music. This remix is pure positive vibes and finds its way into most of my sets.
Amháin & EMPHI - Hadron (Subandrio Remix)
This progressive gem delivers wave after wave of emotion, all with a subtle sophistication that is so difficult to find nowadays.
M.A.N.D.Y. vs Booka Shade - Body Language (Patrice Bäumel Remix)
Body Language is a track from 2005 that wrote dance music history. My remix is a modern and pretty muscular reinterpretation. A peaktime weapon.
Joachim Spieth - Texture 40.1 (Claudio PRC Reconstruction)
One of my favourite records of the moment and a deep, meditative masterpiece. A good dj set needs more than banger after banger.
Africa - Aleph
Eight minutes of gentle euphoria. Good music takes you places and ‘Aleph’ is a mind trip.
Robbie Williams poised to launch his own brand of energy drinks to rival Prime
C.A.R. & Patrice Bäumel - Four Down (Club Mix)
With London’s very own C.A.R. on vocal duties, this is a record that connects me to this fascinating city.
Yagya - Annar Stormu
With Stormur, Iceland’s Yagya has delivered what I consider one of the best techno albums of recent years. This is my favourite track on the album but I recommend listening to the whole thing.
Nico Morano - Flammes (Patrice Bäumel Deep Mix)
This remix has kind of gone under the radar but to me it’s one of my favourite things that have ever come out of my studio. Gentle yet potent.
Deepbass & Ness - Les Planes
Psychedelic Techno at its best. A track that slowly burrows itself deep into the crevices of your brain. Black magic.
Primal Code - Origins
High IQ & EQ dance music. The perfect companion for the journey inwards.
