nightgen This week we are talking with the Berlin producer/dj/master/god that is known as Bassbottle. Bassbottle has been a long time resident with the Nightgen Dj Team since 2004. He has been banging out his own style of music since a kid, with much wide recognition from the scene. We talk to this beat-doctor/dj now!

Nightgen:: What is your age, location, and tell us your life history, where have you been, lived, bombed?
Bassbottle:: Hi everyone, my name is Fabian, 25, born, raised and living in Berlin Germany.

Nightgen:: How do you define your music?
Bassbottle:: Well... it's Techno, hehe. Jokes aside, I always try to keep my music interesting, even if I make a kind of tool. I always range between more drifting Techno and hard pounding stuff. Most of the time at 150 bpm, sometimes faster. But the bpm are not always the most important and when it sounds better at 140-145 bpm, I do it that way.
Also I try to make interesting breaks, often with melodies, cause I love melodies. That's why I already started other electronic music projects, far aw...

nightgen Alex Makee, what was previously a giant in the Hardtechno scene operating under labels exotoxic and annihilated productions has now taken a sudden and surprising change of styles. You will now find Alex under his ComaWorx label where he is quickly being renowned for his amazing Minimal and tech house mixes and tracks. I interview him now:

VoiDeT:: Hi Alex, firstly give us all a status update: Your alias is still Alex Makee even though you have changed music styles?

Alex Makee:: Hi Richard, yes my DJ alias is still Alex Makee. I dont want to change the name, even as I change my style. The People know that name, in both styles. But I also have a new alias - its for my Liveact project, "Errant Signals".

VoiDeT:: Interesting! Tell me about this live project? I have not come across the name Errant Signals yet, and definitely not on Nightgen?

Alex Makee:: Since a few months I play with Ableton Live and maybe next year my first liveact will be finished. The reason why another name for an live act is simply - I only want a cut between DJ'ing and Liveact. For sure it's also...

nightgen Croatia's techno scene has much to thank Dj OGI for. First started jumping into the Croatian techno scene in 1995, OGI has had the privilege to play at some of the greatest techno events the world has seen. Events such as Berlin's famous 'Love Parade', 'Citadela' and 'I Love Techno'. We were lucky to have the chance to speak with this techno giant from Croatia, Dj OGI.

Nightgen:: So Dj OGI, why don''t you introduce yourself to us. Who are you? where are you from? and why are you here?

Dj OGI:: I am DJ Ogi dj and producer from Croatia. I am here because I was always inspirited with dance music. How to develop on giving people energy on the floor, then after a while I said why don’t I try to express myself through a Dj act and give to people my music. So then I started to Dj.

Nightgen:: When did you start getting inspired by techno music? Who were the culprits?


Dj OGI:: I first got in touch with electonic music in the late 80''s. First I was collector of Hard Core and Hard Techno, which was in that period called progressive techno. In quite a short...
