Best place in the world

I guess people who browse by here once in a while already know – I’m a lazy Blogger. But in this case I had to share my feelings with you internet folks. I’ve just been to the best place in the world, well I’m actually still in. Endless free flow of Haagen Dazs ice cream, sausages and a live pop-corn machine. The Emirates Children Food Court in Dubai. The only thing you need is to have a dad (or mum) holding a business class ticket to enter the lounge (Or be a sneakty freakquent traveler). In both ways you will end up with belly pains. But in my case I don’t have to ask my parents presmission to go to the “adult-bar” to get some medicine on the rocks.

The Big Update

So. I moved recently to Berlin. Well not really. It’s more like a 6 weeks here, 6 weeks there (Shanghai) move. I gave away half of my cloths, shoes, my toaster and a bench to be able to do that. My old sneaker-freaker friends think I’m crazy. I’m happy and women who are coming into my place don’t ask me anymore if I’m gay by any chance. (Looking a my massive shoe-collection)

Another bunch of my friends are now jealous. “Oh, Uh, Ah, you’re in Berlin now, so cool.” No offense Mr. Kennedy, I wouldn’t call myself a “Berliner” yet. For me it’s just another big city with a lot of  work ahead. But I miss my screaming chinese neighbors, the fact I can’t walk into an EDKA and ask if I can get the cheese cheaper and I’m always confused how to trow away trash. No clue what type of trash belongs in which trash-can. There are just so many now, impossible to keep tracking! But hey. Enough, I like being back. Home cooked food, friendly Vodaphone employees and great haircuts for less then 10 Euros. And Kebab smell everywhere I go. Besides that I still travel a lot while being here. I did a few shows in Munich, organized a Bananas in Stuttgart together with DJ Passion and this week I play Cookies in Berlin with Mr. “Hip Hop Don’t Stop” Jumpy.

Here’s some pics from a movie-premiere I played in Ulm:

The week before I got punched but hey, I saw Santa a few days later in a Korean Restaurant before he went off to work:

More silliness and the Yum Yum Krauts in Munich:

Two Great Things

Queen & The Muppets – yeah

Lucky you!

Remember the mix I did with Passion. It’s from Bananas last week in Stuttgart. I got tipsy again and wrote silly stuff on the “wall.”

Pumping Iron Mixtape

I recorded a new mix yesterday with Passion. It’s mostly club stuff but the “nice” stuff. Not the pill-taking-rave-music. Enjoy.

Electro Grass

I played with Dan (as The Bananas) last weekend at the completely amazing JZ Festival on the Electro Grass Stage. After half an hour  of rocking on stage it turned dark and we could see all lights of the city pop on. What a view! Besides that there was a super crowd throwing Bananas at us. I take it as an compliment, thanx. Make sure to check out all pics here.

Passion in Shanghai – Bird Call

To tiered to write write now, besides DJ Passion already has a short summery on his blog. Just let the pics speak for now. More “blurry” news later.

Eat More Yellow Bananas

Taxis overcharging you? Too weak to break a fortune-cookie and tired of being skinny? We got the solution, eat more YELLOW BANANAS.

Lot’s of Biceps-Bass this Saturday, 10th at LoGo with Ben Huang, Kamikaze & elnomo. Come by and get strong, we know you need it.

0711 Bananas

Ja Herrschafts Zeiten. Bananas kommt nach Stuttgart. Wer haette das gedacht. Allerdings, so verrueckt ist das gar nicht. Passion war Anfang des Jahres hier in China und meinte die Schwaben brauchen auch ne’ Budget Party. Gesagt getan. Hier noch ein paar schicke Bilder von Passion’s Besuch in Shanghai, weil irgendwie gibts keine Bilder von der Party in Stuttgart.

Have a look at DJ Passion’s blog. He just produced a hit for “Cuuulooooo-Schreihals” Pitbull.
