Derrick Thompson AkA DRIVETRAIN with us for the collective live stream program. Drivetrain, Derrick Thompson entered into the musical fray aged eight, while taking drum lessons at school. Amazed at the notion of being able to make music by beating on things without harassment from a teacher was something that kept him pursuing music. Aged 13, Thompson acquired his first bass guitar. He spent countless hours mastering the instrument. His early influences were Stanley Clarke and Louis Johnson.

Two years later, Thompson jumped to the Stratocaster guitar. Shortly thereafter, he found himself playing on stage in rock bands. At the same time, the buzz on electronic music had started in Detroit. Thompson liked the idea of being able to be his own one man band. He invested in synthesizers, samplers, and recording studio hardware, and also purchased a set of turntables and a mixer. He then began DJing at parties, weddings and soon, clubs.

By this time, Thompson's musical direction was clear. He went solo and established his own record label in 1990, Soiree Records, mainly focussing on deep house. In the following years, Thompson expanded his horizons by releasing several records on European labels such as Plink Plonk, Basic Beat, Mr. C's End Recordings, Kontraband, Slip 'N' Slide, and many others. In 1997 he launched Xplor Music, a Detroit-techno oriented label.

Soiree Records International has not only provided an outlet for Thompson to release his own material, but has also become a musical launch pad for artists throughout the globe. The worldwide vinyl and digital distribution of Soiree Records International has earned Thompson an abundant amount of respect and notoriety in the industry.

Thompson expanded his growing influences even further. With an endless repertoire of quality and groundbreaking tracks, there is a continuous demand for Thompson from both major and independent labels around the world.

Behind the decks, Derrick Thompson aka Drivetrain has electrified dance floors around the planet for more than two decade. His dynamic and always energetic mixing technique along with his undeniably impeccable track selection and skills has ignited crowds at the world's most highly acclaimed clubs, festivals and venues. Thompson passionate and dedicated work ethic has not only validated him as an international success but has earned him the utmost respect as a musical powerhouse. To this day his relentless endeavors and hard working mindset keeps him forever focused on producing and presenting quality music reflecting his roots.

Our rebel talent from Ohio, throws down a funky techno live performance James Johnson Jr AKA Plural is one exceptionally talented electronic music producer, composer and DJ known across the world for his hard techno sound. His calm demeanour belies the massive amounts of energy he creates in his highly technical DJ sets, and the ethereal beauty of his live performances with many top-flight DJs swearing by his output, dropping his tracks relentlessly throughout their sets. He grew up in the 80’s listening mostly to soul, RnB and hip-hop. He knew he wanted to follow a musical path, but because he couldn’t rap or sing and was more interested in the beats he decided to become a DJ. His early inspiration came from amazing artists like Stevie Wonder, Prince, Michael Jackson, Herby Handcock and Public Enemy. after becoming a DJ and discovering so many more styles of music out there, especially techno, it was Jeff Mills, Claude Young, DJ Stingray and The Horrorist to name a few that held his awe.

Our Amsterdam based DJ & producer Claire Granlund consumes frequencies from a wide plethora of genres, rhythms and sounds. Her club sets centre around dub, break beats, acid and techno sound. She sequences records in her own deviating and adventurous flow referring to it as "dark scents with no fixed destination". This alludes to a sensation that can not be seen or touched but only experienced. In 2020 she became a resident at the Decisive Series by Roberto Q. Ingram, in her bi-montly show she explores experimental sounds on a wider spectrum. While hosting and curating a Decisive live stream in the Netherlands for Amsterdam Dance Event 2020, she was inspired to set up her own independent music platform under the name SISUKAS. June 19th she will host her first official SISUKAS event with a strong female line-up and a collaboration with a Dutch design duo Rive Roshan bringing the worlds of art and music together.

More details about Kat Kat Tat!

After revolutionizing Argentina's vibrant underground for nine years, K ΛT KΛT TΛT explores her native Berlin since 2013. Spending half of her life writing about electronic music, organising events and djing, it just seemed natural to come back to where it all started.

Being introduced to synthesizer music as a small child, she spent her earliest years in the laboratory with her dad, observing oscillators and inhaling soldering fumes. The outcome, some home-built speakers and an abstract synesthesic idea of music, influenced her so heavily she did not feel at home musically until she stumbled into her first illegal rave fifteen years down the line.

Getting completely immersed immediately, she ended up becoming an electronic music journalist working for publications like Raveline, Meoko, WKD, and Mixmag. Leading writer teams around the world in different editorials, traveling huge raves and underground spots, and feeling and spreading the vibes of the habitants and birthplaces of scenes and sounds, she picked up the basic virtues: freedom of expression, connective elements and innovative sounds are the underlying motives of her DJing.

Her sets comprise vanguard tendencies; finding a raw and uncompromisingly experimental and explorative approach to playing vinyl only is paramount to her celebration of electronic music culture, intertwining future-positivite house, electro, rave, breaks and techno with her firm, investigative, global roots.

Moving on from organizing Trashmission, Trash Republique and Blue Sunday in her spiritual homeland Argentina to reinserting herself into the German powerhouse Berlin and producing event rows like Post Acid Disco Zoo, Divas and Origin, K ΛT KΛT TΛT let all her experience culminate in the arty event row ̶̶ɯ̶̶̶o̶̶̶̶p̶̶̶̶u̶̶̶ɐ̶̶ɹ, celebrating those subcultures that respire her free and open-minded spirit.

The pandemia turned out to be one of her most productive times as she managed to come up with a new project called Release Day, a podcast about female*LTBGQ+*migrant*PoC producers. The project got picked up by JUMP, a mentorship programme by the European Union, and gets sponsored by Draußenstadt.

Whilst embarking on new adventures around the globe – djing in Latin America, Europe and the outer hebrides of this universe – K ΛT KΛT TΛT continues to thrill with her weekly radio show Pandemia Global every Saturday at 16 hs CET on Alter Sapukai Radio. She also teaches females how to DJ with vinyl and opens minds and broaden horizons with her photographic interventions.

Our man from San Francisco Shannon Shalako entertains us with a deep melodic music master piece, inviting him to the Together Again Collective stream team was the correct choice.

His passion for music and dj culture is evident. He started DJing in the early 1990s at rave massive and night clubs in the North East United States and soon was traveling around the country for gigs. In the late 1990s he organized underground warehouse parties named Redlight, and held a weekly residency for nearly eight years at The Phoenix Landing in Boston, which featured a star-studded list of guests on par with the finest clubs in the world. In the early 2000s Shalako traveled internationally for DJ gigs, notably playing Cocoon Club at U60311 in Frankfurt, and released music on labels Circle Music and Atlas Records. Since 2004 Shalako has resided in the San Francisco Bay Area, where he focuses on producing

Mozer is a Croatian DJ and promoter based in Zagreb. Mozer plays a fusion of electronic music characterized by multi-layered, depth, high dynamics and perfect a sense of mix. In his sets, he likes to emphasize the atmosphere, emotions and occasionally throw out listeners from the comfort zone, all to create a set that has its own unique story and value. He also run the event series “tanzen” in Zagreb. His musical philosophy can also be read from the list of DJs he brought to tanzen events: Roman Flugel, Steve Bug, Patrice Baumel, Sascha Funke, Thomas Fehlmann, Rex The Dog, Martin

Landsky, Tiefschwarz, Jimi Jules, Hyennah and many others.

It is also hosting a new program “schmeckt das tanzen” which brings some of the most exciting upcoming names of electronic music, and has recently become a member of the new collective Gray. “When I realize during the performance that I choose heavy mixes, I know I'm on the right track. Only in those moments when the DJ comes out of his comfort zone can those magical moments occur which people remember long after the party and which inspire us all. ”Mozer's DJ career began back in 2000. He developed his style under the musical influences of industrial techno, British hard groove and electro. He starts his own program "Force & Form", and later "Morephonic" with DJ Sly. He played in all significant clubs in Zagreb and the region, and at the time shared a counter with artists like Ken Ishii, Pascal FEOS, Deetron, Funk D’Void, Billy Nasty, Phil Kieran and many others.

He stopped active performances in 2011, and returns in 2018 with a fresh and full with a more sophisticated sound. For the music base he always takes techno in combination with house, electro, psychedelic disco, minimal...

“Electronic music has never been more exciting and high quality. Constant progress in music production leads to the merging of various musical genres and it is very difficult, and unnecessary, to categorize artists like before. What matters is the artist's ambition to present himself through his unique musical signature. “
