„Melting some tunes and combining them again“–that’s what DEAS had in mind for his contribution to our podcast series. And that pretty much sums up his no bullshit approach to DJing: One of the most prolific acts of the Polish scene, he has been around for well over a decade and has honed his groovy, forward thinking style ever since, be it as a producer or as DJ.
What did you have in mind when recording this mix?
I just wanted to melt some tunes and combine them again. I recorded it just right after a weekend so I had a lot of emotions in my mind.
Where did you record it and which setup did you use?
This is a studio mix I’ve recorded at my home.
What’s the most memorable gig you played so far?
There were many gigs that were special. Last time I played in a church after many, many years of not entering one. Last time that I’ve played in a church before was probably in Antwerp at Café d’Anvers. So that was something cool to me. But time flies and our memories are covered with dust. Awakenings was something cool, too, my first closing at Thuishaven in Amsterdam I remember very well. My first show in Los Angeles where I played at a warehouse was great. It’s impossible to single out just the one show.
Can you name a secret weapon that you use frequently?
I still play it from time to time, and I don’t know how much of a secret weapon it is but I love it: MMM – Nous Sommes MMM.
