Skiddle Mix 046 - Reboot (Exhibit)

We've been gifted a brilliantly subtle and engaging mix from the one and only Reboot; listen in.

Our latest Skiddle mix (below) comes from a pearler of a DJ, German groove fiend Reboot. He's whipped together an hour of hip snapping house grooves from the likes of Guti, Fuckpony, Santos and many more, building gently form the subtle chimes of St Germain right up to his own edit of Guti's 'Desidia'.

He'll be playing at Gorilla on Saturday 19th July for EXHiBiT, bringing his signature sound to the Manchester fraternity for a full three hours. We caught up with him ahead of the show to find out where he was at musically at present.

It's been a while since you've played in Manchester. Are you looking forward to your gig at Gorilla? How do you find the crowds up North?

Yes, it's been quiet some time. The more excited I am to finally come back and play this show at Gorilla. The crowd up there is always amazing. I've been playing gigs all over the North for many years and I simply love it. Very energetic crowds and always a fantastic vibe. I can't wait for this one.

You'll be playing a fair few dates over in Pacha Ibiza this summer, do you have a special connection with the island like many DJs do?

For sure! As you say, many DJs have this special connection and of course so do I. I have been playing on the island for some years now, and I've also lived there for some seasons. I would go so far to call it a second home. Ibiza is just a magical little Island. So beautiful and full of positive energy, especially beyond the nightclubbing scene.

Ibiza and the underground scene has had a lot of criticism and many people say it's attracting the wrong crowds. What's your view on it all?

Well, some say so, some say different. To me, the positive factors still overrule the bad ones. There are some places or parties on the Island that I personally wouldn't visit, because the crowd or the music doesn't attract me.

But hey, nobody forces me to go and there is still enough places that are the bomb - with superb music and great crowds. I simply go there, it's easy.

When can fans expect to hear some new material form your studio endeavors?

After my latest release on Circus in April (below), I just finished some remixes for Guti's latest Album, that should be out soon on Defected Records (you can hear one on the mix I have done for you).

I am currently building up a new studio, so I am sure that there is a few more new things to be expected during the year.

What track would be guaranteed to make it into your sets at the moment?

More than one. Tiefschwarz are coming up with a great release featuring Ruede Hagelstein called 'Fire it up', this one is a smasher. Also Ross Evans 'This is Carcosa', or Tucillo's 'Watchout are real dancefloor killers. There is a lot of good stuff around these days.

Moving away from music, who do you think will win this year's World Cup? Is football something you follow?

YES!! I am a huge football fan and I watch as many games as possible. I am not gonna make any shady comments on England`s team right now, I just hope my country, Germany will make it this year!

You've incorporated South American rhythms into your music in the past, is it a continent you get to visit much? What's the scene like there?

I had the chance to travel there many times and try to tour there every year. The club scene in the big countries Argentina and Brazil is very vital and more and more into underground music. But also nations like Peru or Chile have mindblowing parties.

I can't remember having a show over there that was not something special. Whenever I get the chance, I go there and just enjoy it. 

Final question. You've been inexplicably told you're next Dj set will be your last. What's the final record you play to sign off?

Good one... uff...

I guess that would be: Mr. Fingers 'Can you feel it' - probably the greatest tune in house music history!
