TC PODCAST W/ MIRIAM MONDSHEIN

Born and raised in West Germany, Miriam Mondshein got in touch with music already at the age of 3 by the sound of The Cure, and found her passion for experimental sounds in her early teens when Tool released their album “Lateralus” and bands like Nine Inch Nails had their peak.

Influenced by artists like Aphex Twin and Massive Attack, it was no surprise she developed a favour for electronic music and discovered techno at age 12. What started as a hobby quickly developed into way more than just collecting music - it became her only rescue from daily struggles and the reason for Miriam to move to Berlin in 2007, where she became a part of the scene quickly and got blessed by the golden Berghain times.

Marcel Dettmann’s raw bouncy grooves and Ben Klock’s hypnotic minimalism educated her hearing and shaped the perfect bridge to the warm dryness of classy raw UK techno and garage beats. To this day, those influences are strong characteristics in her mixes and productions.

As DJ, producer, and painter, Miriam Mondshein integrates her synaesthesia as a tool to create psychedelic moods in both of her artistic practices equally. The ability to see sound enables her to combine grooves and trippy rhythms from different genres with contemporary techno sound, an old school spirit, and a huge love for B-side digging.

Mind-twisting, mantra-like vocal snippets and atmospheric loops define her signature sound - inviting the crowd to a meditative state on the dance floor, while the necessary pressure is delivered by full bass lines, rich kick drums, and just the right amount of distortion to add an accent of rawness to the vibe.

Shamanism is real - and it can happen on the dance floor.
