FOODSPOTTING AT KADEAU

Hello Foodspotters!

I recently had some mind-blowing food at the Restaurant Kadeau in Bornholm, Denmark. This was my starter – scallops with wild beach plants and flowers, picked right outside the restaurant. Green, healthy and delicious. Are you hungry now?

Cheers,
Kasper

NINA’S GOODIE BAG: REWORK – TOUCH YOURSELF

[HearDis! 275]

Hi People,

it’s a new week and it’s time for a new download-goodie! This one is called “Touch Yourself” and it’s by an act that’s been releasing quality music for quite some years now: Rework! I’d consider them underground legends by now… and, fun fact: They currently reside pretty close to the HUGO HQ. Well, everything’s connected it seems – and now it’s time for you to connect yourself to the player above and get your free download! Have fun with “Touch Yourself” and stay tuned for more!

Love,
Nina

Hi Art Lovers,

here’s a snap-shot from an exhibition at the Louisiana Museum of Modern Art. It was about new Nordic design, art and architecture. Very inspiring!

GUESS WHAT!?!

Heyhey,

Cheers,
Kasper

NINA’S GOODIE BAG: JENS LODEN – WAIT

[HearDis! 273]

Ciao!

It’s Friday and it’s acid time! The next track on my list comes from Swedish producer Jens Lodén and is entitled “Wait” – don’t ask me why, ’cause he gets down to brass tacks pretty quick! Love the buildup, as well as the energy this one developes… Stream the track to get into the weekend-vibe! Hope you’ll enjoy…

Love,
Nina

… AND I LOVE YOU RIGHT BACK, JOHNNY!

Hi everyone,

well, I gotta say, there really ARE worse things than learning that Johnny Depp is a fan of your music… A friend sent me a link today to Mr. Depp’s first Beatport chart and I was truly happy and excited, given that he’s one of my absolute teenage crushes, to see that my song “Taxi Talk” is one of his ten favorite tracks at the moment! I had heard before that he’s quite enthusiastic about music and of course used to be co-owner of the Viper Room in LA (which sadly reminds me of River Phoenix, another favorite of mine…), but I wasn’t aware that he was keeping track with current club music releases! Anyway, just had to share this with you guys, now I better get back to producing some more Hollywood-approved house music!

Kisses,
Nina

NINA’S GOODIE BAG: MONKEY SAFARI – HI LIFE

[HearDis! 272]

Hey everyone,

no days off on my end – so here’s the next track on my current playlist. Guilty pleasure for sure! “Hi Life” by Monkey Safari is one of those simple-yet-effective edits that are easy to fall for, but hard to forget! I’m sure some of you have heard this one before on one of the many recent festivals and are aware of its bitter-sweet-beauty. Reminds me of all those priceless summer days in Berlin… In order to be taken away, just stream the track right here. Enjoy, people!

Love,
Nina

Well, you’ll be able to hear some of my current favorite songs to play in my sets or listen to at home, aaand: you’ll also be able to download some of them for free!

Christopher releases his music on the label Smallville Records from beautiful Hamburg and they’ve yet to release a record that is not fantastic!

COOK OFF

Hello there!

I’m back with quite an unusual update from the kitchen. Yes, that’s right – for one evening I have transformed into a chef! I cooked Russian borsch for a DJ Cook Off Show during the Amsterdam Dance Event. The competition was judged by Paul Oakenfold, Dubfire and Dave Clarke. I didn’t win, but I really enjoyed the show itself. It made me think of cooking more often for friends and my loved ones.

Love,
Nina
