Sound Of The Underground – Quell

It’s Friday and after a long week we can’t wait to go out and enjoy the weekend. So with that in mind we’ve got the perfect thing to get you in the mood to enjoy yourself with an exclusive mix from Berlin based DJ and producer Quell. For the uninitiated Quell has been making serious waves in the underground scene in his adopted home of the German capital and beyond, taking up any challenge presented to him  with an impressive array of releases on premium labels like Ibadan Records, Tsuba, These Days, 4Lux and 8Bit among others.

2013 sees Quell about to leave his mark on a lrager scale as he prepares to release his debut LP on esteemed imprint legendary Ibadan Records, entitled ‘Them Crowd Kids‘ in addition to 12″ singles on Ralph Lawson’s 2020Vision Recordings and the parisian Skylax Records.

With constant efforts to improve his sound and further experiment what sets artists like Quell apart is their unbridled passion for electronic music and this passion cannot be replicated or falsified as  Quell explains “It is my firm belief that a DJ should be able to entertain as much as educate a crowd and the two don’t have to be mutually exclusive values. DJing is one of the most misunderstood jobs around and It’s vital to me, for the people who come see you to get more than their money’s worth and experience an engaging performance” 

Travelling all over the world, but also playing some hand-picked, special interest events of Berlin, he presents shows that include 3-4 hour high energy house/techno of all times to more expansive long-hour shows weaving through post punk, indie and disco back to house and techno.
