About Me |
|
Markus Gardeweg Born in Hamburg, it didnt take long for Markus to develop a passion for music. By the age of twelve, his room was full of records and by the time he was 14, he was sharing his collection with a wider audience, organizing discos at his local youth centre. That was back in the early Eighties, and having met with approval amongst his contemporaries, his first bookings were not long in coming. Private parties provided a springboard to clubland itself, and before you could say two technics turntables, Markus was behind the decks at Hamburgs renowned Traxx venue. His star continued to shine across North Germany and in 1995 he signed up as resident at the Kontor Club, where he would play a key role in shaping the Kontor sound, as well as rockin the house time and again. Since then, the names Markus and Kontor have gone hand in hand, his DJ career racing along as he racked up the mileage and joined the nations elite DJ circle. The Kontor club was consigned to history, but the brand lived on and thrived as a record label, continuing to play a role in Gardewegs story. Meanwhile, alongside his DJing activities, Markus had learned the record company ropes at the Urban dance label, where he rose from sales and DJ promotion assignments to A&R.In 1998 he was reunited with Kontor, joining the newly founded Kontor Records label and hes still a part of the team today. In the same year he got his first chance to showcase his mixing skills on CD, taking care of the mix for the Kontor Top Of The Clubs album...and has done so ever since. Not bad, considering the series has now turned 32! Thanks in no small measure to his involvement, Top Of The Clubs has grown into one of the most successful DJ mix series on the market, which, in turn, has done Mr Gardewegs bookings diary no harm either! Since 2002, Markus has been a resident DJ on the Kontor Top Of The Clubs tour, and currently has a couple of residencies at 3001 in Düsseldorf - N.F.F. in Bremen and Halo in Hamburg. In 2004 he released his first mix album under his own name - Markus Gardeweg Off The Record.Gardeweg has also been mixing up the airwaves since 1998 on the weekly Kontor radio show. He and DJ colleague Jay Frog, plus guests, deliver a two hour slice of the hottest club tunes into your own home. The show goes out on Antenne West on Fridays at 10 pm www.antennewest.de, and in the early hours of Sunday morning ( 1am) on Hit Radio N1 www.funkhaus.de/n1. Or you can simply tune in to the streams on the www.kontor.cc website, with full playlists available.Theres no rest for the wicked, as they say, and Markus can also be found hard at work in the studio on his own productions or remixes for other artists. Six strong Gardeweg releases were the result of his collaboration with Caba Kroll, followed by something of a shift in sound, as he teamed up with Sono to create two singles 25 Years and Hello.His brand new club smash will hit the streets under the name Gardeweg & Lange, a co-production with Michi Lange, famous for his work with Boris Dlugosch. One Nation is a reworking of the House Master Boyz classic. House Nation. This is a world premiere. Enjoy.www.gardeweg.com |
