Dust off your party suits and frocks because PICNIC IS TURNING SIX!
To celebrate this milestone, we’ve gone all-out to bring you a true originator and innovator of dub, house and techno music.
Moritz von Oswald is to Berlin as Juan Atkins is to Detroit.
Von Oswald is an integral part of that city's music scene – a truly gifted and forward thinking musician, producer and engineer he has inspired and continues to play a major part in influencing the sounds and music genres we explore today.
A start in the early ‘80s as a percussionist for Thomas Felhmann’s new-wave band, Palais Schaumburg, lead to working with Fehlmann as the in-house production team at Tresor Records. The duo where also releasing original material on the label as 2MB or 3MB (when either Juan Aktins or Eddie Fowkles joined to make 3 Men in Berlin).
In 1992 Von Oswald and Mark Ernestus (founder of Hard Wax) starting releasing the absolutely seminal Maurizio records, a incredible creative collaboration that (thankfully) lead to unleashing Basic Channel in 1993.
Together the pair were responsible for dozens of the most coveted records in dance music, from the Detroit-tinged minimal bliss of BC, Quadrant and Cyrus to the timeless soulful house of Round One/Two/Three/Four/Five, and, of course, the stunning dubbed out vibes of Rhythm & Sound! Some of the most deeply resonating records ever released.
And he’s been just as prolific and poignant in recent times. The Moritz von Oswald Trio, with Vladislav Delay and Max Loderbauer crafted four incredible albums in as many years and toured a mind-blowing live show that nearly outshine the recorded material – which is almost unthinkable with Von Oswald’s touch. After a break Trio reformed in 2014 with the extraordinary Tony Allen replacing Vladislav Delay!
Last year he reconnected with Juan Atkins to concoct Borderland, a collaboration album that explored their collective pasts and futures and the Detroit-Berlin connection they initially forged.
It’s an absolute honour and dream come true to have Moritz Von Oswald join us to celebrate our 6th Birthday, the Burdekin Hotel, and we’ve rounded out the bill with some staple DJs from the Picnic stables.
