i've been taking part in DJ events & created several Clubseries since 1997 in many Berlin venues, some names are ROTER SALON, DELI (RIP, now MARIA), SO36, ACUD CLUB & REMISE and did countless one offs shows in town or abroad, with live musicans, VJs, EmCees, colleague DeeJays or all by myself
i really prefer working with vinyl, so if you have any promo 12" please be in touch if u think i might b the right one to drop it. otherwise :
Send me your track
also i used to play bass and turntables with the live musicians of
NOMAD SOUNDSYSTEM this project is history for me - important, but the past.
i'm scaling new heights now!
not forgetting about the *SPARK* project with fabulous multi instrumentalist BadRam from New York. we produce and remix nice tunes, always trying to combine power with beauty.
eventually we are going to take this to the stage more from fall 2009.

SHAZAM is a DJ and a musician from Berlin. He is sometimes DJing with live musicians in a club situation, at other times he's a live DJ with a band onstage. Or both.
He likes music with three EEEs: Electronic, Eastern & Eclectic.
the song clips you are hearing are collaboration works with other people and NOT a dj mix tape.
''While spinning, i don't have musical limitations other than my personal filter : i like a tune - or not.''
So you might get a DJ set of his that combines styles like these: Asian Underground, NeoArabic Clubfusions, Global Dub, Afrobeat, BalkanBrass Dancehall, vintage Bollywood Breaks or Brazil Drum&Bass, Lounge Exotica or or or..

washed her with water, her – whipped by the wind.... At dawn, she woke, the sun dried her. Her skin had changed, rotten old crap. Oh, poor, poor old Mama, you lonely one. Who created you from iron and gave you such a rotten destiny?
