Berlin’s Jana Falcon is in her mid 20s and a bomb shell of a DJ already, she has her very own distinct sound flavour, both as a DJ and as a music producer: Bopping beats, cut-up vocals and a certain, irresistible pop appeal – it’s all there.

For Jana growing up in the greater Frankfurt area in the 1990s on a diet of Euro Dance, UK Garage, 2 Step and the likes. The famous “Robert Johnson” Club caught her particular attention, or in other words: she crashed there every friggin weekend for some good ol’ House Music by guys like Roman Flügel or Gerd Janson and then around 2008 she wanted more and became a regular at Berlin’s kingdom of House Music Madness – Panorama Bar.

Pure love for the music being played there and her very own sense of nerdiness made her start browsing, buying and treasuring Vinyl records and subsequently she began to DJ, too. Jana moved from Frankfurt to Berlin around 2011 and very soon the first DJ gigs came up in small clubs and bars. In December 2014 her paths crossed with Mr. Fonk of “Smile for a while” – in their beloved home club “Robert Johnson.” And in 2016, after a long way to go with producing, mixing, mastering, etc. her first record is going to be released on “Smile for a while.”

Meanwhile her DJing skills improved gradually and DJ gigs became more and more regular in venues like Humboldthain, Weekend, Loftus Hall, Anita Berber and many more, today we welcome her to the Mix of the Day.

Grahame Farmer’s love affair with electronic music goes back to the mid-90s when he first began to venture into the UK’s beloved rave culture, finding himself interlaced with some of the country’s most seminal club spaces. A trip to dance music’s anointed holy ground of Ibiza in 1997 then cemented his sense of purpose and laid the foundations for what was to come over the next few decades of his marriage to the music industry.
