Yone-ko is a great DJ and producer from Japan who has been living in Berlin for quite some time. Together with Timur Basha, he organises the Wordless parties, which take place at venues including Club der Visionäre. His selection is diverse and combines traditional influences with contemporary aesthetic flows. His mix for the Freude am Tanzen podcast is a live recording from 29 August 2025 at Bar Neun Berlin, beginning with relaxing listening music and progressing to dry, groovy rhythms and basslines with catchy claps and hi-hats.

Alex Albrecht's journey as an artist in electronic music began in 2014 with the founding of the label Analogue Attic Recordings on which Alex Abrecht together with Sean La'Brooy as Albrecht La'Brooy released their debut EP “Good Morning Passengers”. Since then, the duo has released two albums on Apollo, the sub-label of R+S Records, among others. In addition to his real name, the Australian music producer from Melbourne also produces under the synonym Melquíades.

This summer Alex Albrecht is on tour in Europe and will be at Strand 22 in Jena on 27.06. before his stop at Tresor Berlin. There he will be performing together with Margaux Gazur and Module One at the Ambient Open Air.

Jena based DJ and underground events organizer Public D returns to the Freude am Tanzen Podcast series. This time solo with his unique sound between House and dubstep oriented broken beats. A Mix with many facets but with still one flow!

Mint4000 enriches the Freude am Tanzen Podcast series with a great vinyl set of deep minimalistic grooves and floating sound sequences. A perfect mix to enjoy the upcoming summer days! The DJ and producer from Leipzig has released on labels like Appian Sounds and Drop That Records in the past and can be found in Jena from time to time.

For almost ten years now, the producer from Berlin has been releasing deeply driving, sensitive dance music that strongly tempts you to fall in love on the dance floor. In 2020, Philipp founded his own label, called Stolar, which regularly releases digital and vinyl releases by himself and other artists, with many reshapes and interpretations by other producers.

Highly recommended!

Dan shows us a collection of warm groovers with a transition from deep house to deep techno, holding a moody (ish) atmosphere, staying dubby and minimal throughout. The london-based dj also organises the above below festival, which will take place at the Chiltern Hills near London in early June.

Soela, who lives in Berlin, has created her very own sound between sensual house music and minimalist dub techno and has released on labels such as Dial, Sushitec, Kompakt and others. This year, she also released a track called "The thing for him" on the Freude am Tanzen compilation. You can also find a detailed interview with her in the sixth issue of Fatplastics magazine. Thank you for that great mix Elina!

In 2016, Caldera started the project Riviera Club and since 2014 has been releasing music on various labels such as Noorden, WNCL, Sonic Moire, Bokhari Records to name a few. Caldera is not the only synonym of a producer originally from the Ruhrpott, who is at home in the UK. his mix for Freude am Tanzen is as varied as his work as music producer and we are very happy that he is represented on the new vinyl compilation project as well as in our podcast series.

At home in Cologne for some time now, but originally from the Jena area, DJ Klaus Storch sends warm, funky, broken house music into the dreary, darkening and cold everyday life. Thank you Klaus!
