We are welcoming DJ & producer Berny in our Exclusive Mix series. Berny released on great labels as there are King Street Sounds, Nite Grooves, Go Deeva and more and first came into the public domain with his smash hit “Shplatten” in 2010. Picked up by industry finest like Richie Hawtin & Marco Carola gave Berny the attention he deserved to build a strong international career.

Truly absorbed by the range of sonic possibilities, Berny is determined to stretch the limits of genres with his characteristic ‘Deep’,’Disco’ and ‘Jacking’ signature sound.

Berny’s inner strength and self-belief have shaped his engaging personality and helped him grow into the DJ and producer that he is today, releasing and playing exceptional music purely for lovers and people who dance and wanna celebrate life.

Enjoy the ride!

Where are you from and what do you find inspirational about where you’re living?
I was born in Rome but live between Venice and Berlin. Venice is a city where I relax and produce, Berlin basically where I play, work but also where I have fun, I always try to balance these two aspects of my life.

What excites you the most as a DJ?
I’ve been playing around Europe and beyond for 25 years and the thing I’ve always liked is to receive compliments after playing, to have people who come to congratulate you sincerely and with a smile because they had fun, this is priceless. I am happy to travel for 8 hours if I can have these satisfactions.

With this virus outbreak putting a halt on the world as we know it. How will the future of DJ’s look like according to you?
All of us DJs and producers have a big question mark, coupled with fear and uncertainty. Can I still pay the rent, cover my expenses? In case of an emergency, does the state help me? If so, how and when?

As always we just have to wait and sit through this shit. Creativity is our highest asset together with health, so let’s use it. Time will tell where we will be at the end of the year. For now, let’s stay safe and do not let ourselves be beaten down and let’s try to transform this situation into an opportunity. I wish each of us to find his own way to do it.

Where does your passion for electronic music come from?
I’ve always listened to music since childhood, all kinds, I have never endured silence, in my house, there is music on 24h a day. I started listening Hip Hop in the late 90s then Lounge, Electronic and Chill-House with the Cafè Del Mar series, after Techno, Deep House and now Dark Disco. I love all genres and this makes all my sets special, I change genre continuously when I play and I had often incredible reactions from people who come to tell me “I haven’t heard this piece for a lifetime”.

What can we expect from the mix you made us?
I recorded the mix live using my Pioneer Xdj-RX and my sampler AKAI MPX 16. I played 2 unreleased tracks from my friends Oniwax and Funk d’Void, expect a wide range of deep grooving melodies from Dark Disco to Afro, you will listen to really special tracks and promos I like to play in my recent sets, I hope you enjoy!

Thank you
