News: BouleBass Lineup!

boulebass-cover

Together with Podgressive, Technophobia and BouleBar Globen, bejbi.se proudly presents BouleBass!

Who wants to party? We want to party! Who wants to boule? We want to boule! Come celebrate the onset of the summer season with us for a crazy, new kind of night! Get ready to celebrate with a fusion of boules, beer, beats and bass, from minimal to progressive electro to tech house. Come play with us, and then dance your ass off!
First, come take advantage of the ridiculously affordable package that BouleBar Globen has put together specifically for this night. Play on one of their 16 newly constructed lanes (max 6 people/lane) and a beer, all for 100kr (regular price is 180kr). This will all go down from 21 to midnight. Then we move into the partying at BouleBar’s nightclub dance floor. This will be a night to remember.
For those of you who don’t know boule, shame on you. Boule is a game played by champions. Similar to horseshoes, boule is all about making your mark on the target. You can read more about the sport here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pétanque
After boule play and casual music, the volume will get cranked up to max, and a special assortment of Stockholm’s finest will arrive on the decks.
Come make your mark! Welcome!

Now the lineup is confirmed and we are proud to present no other than Özgur Can as main act..

Özgur Can was born 1982 in Stockholm in a music family with turkish roots. He popped up on the dance scene sometime around 2003 with his own unique take om progressive house music with releases on labels like Armada, Lost language, Pickadoll with support from Dj`s like Armin van Buren, Tiesto, Sven Väth, Sasha, Digweed and many more of the elité of the electronic music.
He was one of the first swedes to release on Sven Väths prestigious Cocoon and has since then released on the legendary Harthouse. Then Özgur moved on to more techy sounds, releasing tracks on Adam Beyers TrueSoul label. He also made remixes for Erik Prydz, John Dahlbäck, Gabriel & Dresden.Özgur may be a festival favorite and a big club Dj but he still loves to go back to his music roots which is reflected in many of his extensive productions.

His music style is best described as a funky groove that breathes deeply, making him one of the definite exports of Swedish Techno.Özgür has made remixes for a long list of well-known names and labels for years, and now it is his time to prove just how deep and mature his sound can be.His new album ”Put me in a box and label me” released October the 25th on the new label ”Eat my house”, contains colabs with artist such as Rasmus Kellerman (Tiger Lou), Papa Dee and many other great artists.

Together with Tatsumi Suzuki and Technophobia he is surely going to tear the roof of the place!

The winter is still having a firm grip of Sweden but we are slowly moving towards spring and all the fun that comes with it! How about ASOT600, Wonder Festival, WMC and of course Above & Beyond in Stockholm.

My taste of music is quite wide and I can sometimes abandon a genre for a while to pick it up at a later point. That has happened now and I’m clearing my head with other styles. But I’m after all a sucker for EDM so I’m of course prepared for this episode and looking forward to put my set together!

I have found some tunes that I think will be a great injection to my set. Starting with a bit slower bpm than before. There are tunes that can’t be left out so I hope that you like them as well.

February episode was all about Denmark. Daniel Kandi and Kris O’Neil showed that Denmarks trance music is something to count! We are moving on and will put our full focus to our dear neighbours Norway! They don’t just have awsome girls or fantastic landscape. The norwegian EDM-scene is strong and we are proud to present the uprising trance duo E&G, lovely and really talanted Carina and our interview with the house producer Made in Norway by Patric. So, make sure to check in #Podgressive on the 22th February, 12:00 CET!

News: Pre-Podgressive – Behind The Scenes EP038

Tja tja bloggeeen!

January, 2013.. Dark, cold January! Well there is hope. #Podgressive EP038 is soon here. We have been in Finland and in Norway. This time it’s time to listen to what our neighbors in Denmark has to give us. We have a couple of really talented artists that I will get to shortly but let’s turn back the time a little bit. Actually 4 years from now!

Podgressive 4 Years Aniversary

I think it was in December. Both me and Kambiz did’nt have so many gigs at the moment and I was, as I always do with my nearest artist friends, try to come up with new cool ideas. And so it was. Some how we came up with this idea. Let’s build up our names with a podcast and let’s make it the best independent edm-show ever! Here we are, 4 years later, with aprox. 4000 listeners each and every month from around the frekkin’ globe! I don’t think none of us really believed that this could get so big. Or hmm, big compared to Armin.. NO! But, for us local Swedish dj’s It’s a huge thing. Of course there has been a lot of work and loss of energy but it has been so worth it! So, as I keep saying. There would’nt be any Podgressive without listeners. So big up to you all and keep up with the feedback and let’s continue spreading the word!

We are trying our best to make this show and bejbi a better experience for you. I wish we could clone ourselves but that aint possible. We have so many good ideas but most of them are too big to make in short notice. If you have any good ideas for the show or bejbi, don’t hesitate. Contact us at info@podgressive.com or patric@bejbi.se.

January 2013

This year started with a big explosion of champagne, my last cigarette, fantastic seafood and great company! The first week was like a big hangover but then I started to grab on to some music again. I made a couple of mash-ups and got a nice gig with my mates Steve Sundheden, JP Bates and Jay van Kay. All three very talented by the decks. The gig is on the 26th January (Make sure to drop by early. My playtime is 22.00-23.30). The day after my release of this months podcast. And somewhere there it got me thinking of how many tracks I will need to get for the end of this month. I don’t want to release a podcast and play the same tunes the day after and I need to keep up with the quality. So, there has been many hours searching for the right material but I think I’m on to some real bangers now!

Starting up with some housyer stuff and there is some really good releases this month. Climbing towards progressive that I found on the MINIMAL section at Beatport..

News: Pre-Podgressive – Behind The Scenes EP037

Tja tja bloggeeen!

The year of 2012 is about to end. It’s December and it seems to be a white christmas for us here in Stockholm. It all started a couple a weeks ago with really cold temperatures and as you can see on the cover picture taken towards Riddarfjärden and with our city house, it’s not a snowstorm over the water. It’s fog because of the big temperature changes between air and water. We had -10c to -15c that morning. It has been snowing quite some since then and there has been some difficulties with cars that has jammed here and there but overall, it’s beautiful now! I would like to give some credits to my friend Carl Efvergren for the great picture taken from his office that morning. He is btw the lad behind the guitar on mine and Millaways two tunes that we made, Millaway & Tatsumi Suzuki ft. Carl Efvergren – Lynchburg Lemonade and Empire Of The Sun – We Are The People. Check them out and if you would like to have a copy of them, let me know!

Podgressive EP037 – The Yearmixes

As the most of you know. When Podgressive started, the colaboration with Bejbi.se wasn’t started yet. I got this podcasting idea with my friend, Kambiz. We have been playing alongside for several years and we wanted to try this out. So, in January 2010 we launched our first episode. The first six months had lot’s of beginner-fails. Either our voice-overs were too loud, way too low and our self-confidence as ”radio-speakers” were not that high. After a while it all started to sound pretty well. However, the year went by and so did we with the show. Kambiz hopped off the project and I kept on with the show. But, his help on the first year has been crucial for the future of Podgressive. We have and will as in every December have a yearmix put together from each of us.

I have been working on my set with Ableton for a while and I’m truly impressed by all the great artists that puts together a yearmix every year. It takes time and a lot of knowledge to mash the tracks up and at the same time still have the right build through the entire set. In writing moment, the set is about 60min and with a little more than 30 tracks. I think the final result will land on 75 minutes and about 40 tunes. Hopefully the result will be in your taste!

The Year 2012

This year has been really intresting. A year when Podgressive got a bit more serious. Much thank’s to Patric and his ideas and help and of course our great artists and the fact that we see more and more subscribers and feedback. That is something that makes you keep on with this. We would like to thank WEZZ DEVALL, MARCUS SCHOSSOW, CONCHA, MICHAEL CASSETTE, KIMONO, AMEX, KOLIZZ, AUSTIN LEEDS, MATT STELLAR, JOHAN MALMGREN, AYDA, EMRAH CELIK, ORKIDEA, WALD, JOHAN VILBORG, AMAR.S, KAMBIZ, TECHNOPHOBIA, CONTACT, VAN DRESEN, MARCUS STORK, SKYRACER, ZACHARIAS TIEMPO and SANDE for your great dj-sets, they have been appreciated!

Podcast: #Podgressive EP036

It’s Friday again and it’s soon payday for the most of us.
Podgressive EP036 is released and it’s a episode full of talanted guests and filled with the best dance music the world has to offer at this moment. First up is the very talanted artist Michael Cassette. His sound has made us impressed for several years and it’s nice to have him with us! Next up is Orkidea. He has been up on the very top of the nordic dance scene for more than a decade and his uplifting and melodic sound will hopefully squeeze the juice of this show! As for the resident dj Tatsumi Suzuki, he have a little more melodic and a bit faster mix for this month. We think this will suite for all you trance people out there! We have also the winner of last months contest with Analog Sweden and another intresting interview of Millaway by Patric from bejbi.se. Enjoy!

Now, head over to >>Podgressive.com << and listen to the #Podgressive EP036!
