MONDAY MIXTAPE: FOG PUMA

"Dreiklangsdimensionen"

Honestly, it can’t get any more mediterranean, more oceanic, balearic, adriatic, tropical, sunsetting, mystical, enchanted, faraway, relaxing and dreamy than a Fog Puma mix. No chance. He’s got the capability to turn even the greyest Berlin winter days into a hammock hangout on dream island - at least for one or two hours. Fog Puma a.k.a. Jean-Marie Dhur, who borrowed his artist name from an obscure, surrealistic Gunvor Nelson and Dorothy Wiley film, is always on the search for the outer edges of danceable music and is reigning his very own league. A one-hit wonder of an 80s Electro-Pop Band is having a rendezvous with a krautish scandinavian Disco galop, pitched down exotic house is topless dancing with some deep Soul edits, cosmic Yachtrock frolics with funky Post Punk - a straight bass drum always in range of vision. His sets are percussive, dubby, preferably psychedelic and most likely driving relaxed in slower to mid tempo areas.

Lately he’s hosting the Balearic series "Cool Breezes & Easy Rides" at Berlin’s Acud and he’s a booking magnet at Clubs as Wilde Renate, Kater Blau, Sisyphos and a bunch of others and regularly playing the big summer festivals Fusion and Nation Of Gondwana. For Berlin’s alternative Pi-Radio he’s hosting „Abendlandung“ once a month where he’s airing what he loves: Soundtracks, Ambient, Folk, Psychedelia, Krautrock, New Wave, Postpunk, Soul, Downbeat and the obscure.

While he’s on vacation in Morocco at the moment, he’s waving hello back to his home Germany with a well hung motoric krautish mix he’s done for us. We’re waving back, blowing a kiss, saying thank you for that lovely postcard, Fog Puma!
