Here’s to our 15th year!
Fifteen years at the forefront of content creation, information, innovation, and connection, have made EG a cultural beacon for music. Over this period, our flagship podcasts have become an industry staple, showcasing the most exciting talent in electronic music across the globe, tearing down barriers, and bringing fans and artists closer together.
With landmark installments from industry luminaries like John Digweed, Laurent Garnier, Miss Kittin, Damian Lazarus, Mark Farina, Andrew Weatherall, Hernan Cattaneo, and Nick Warren to fan-favorites such as Luciano, Bob Moses, Lee Burridge, Nicole Moudaber, Öona Dahl, Stacey Pullen, Eelke Kleijn, Giorgia Angiuli, Keinemusik, Francesca Lombardo, and many more, our series of podcasts showcases the evolution of electronic music under a unique lens carved by each artist, and our 900th installment is no exception.
Patrice Bäumel has carved a unique path through the European and global techno world. He’s the Beatport chart-topping producer and international top-flight DJ who can comfortably fit in with the stellar cast of Global Underground compilers/mixers. This is a man who cites the dark experimental grind of Andy Stott and the liquid metal explosions of Autechre as key influences. These days he’s straightedge and level-headed, yet is still in love with the Dionysian extremes of club culture, and remains a livewire behind the decks, forging an electric connection with dancers. And for all that, he is a strategic and studious thinker, he’s in thrall to the magic of randomness, and insistent that club music must be driven by bravery and radicalism.
“For this special occasion, I’ve shared a 2-hour mix that was recorded live at Fusion Festival 2022 on the Panne Eichel Floor which is run by the Kater Blau crew in Berlin. I feel that a live mix is the most authentic way to represent a DJ. There is nowhere to hide.” says Patrice Bäumel about his latest contribution to our flagship series.
“It’s an honor to have Patrice Bäumel mix our 900th episode. Not only we are fans of his music but he is an artist that properly represents our culture and is someone who pushes forward the dance music community in the right direction. Also, reaching such a milestone is something we never imagined, but at the same time, it works as a catapult for new and challenging projects.”, reflects Mauricio Viana, CEO & Founder at EG, on the landmark installment.
Patrice Bäumel, one of the world’s most arousing acts, is bringing his HALO concept to Denver with an all-night-long immersive experience in collaboration with Whirling Dervish Productions. The event will take place on Saturday, July 23rd at ReelWorks Denver, starting at 8 PM. You can purchase your tickets here.
