LUCA BALDINI // HOOKED // HELL YEAH


Why is everyone moving to Berlin? Might be some mass scale techno immigration never before seen in the history of the city. Does everyone there live like the hippy, polygamous commune described by Alex Garland in 'The Beach'? Or are we just sick of London/NYC/Tokyo? Might move there and make a living selling currywurst by Alexanderplatz and DJ part time @ Cookies.

Another expat plying his trade over in the German capital is Italian, Luca Baldini, renowned in the Berlin art house circles for his Drama Society project. Luca's sparse, stripped down melodies have seen the man ditch the glam & glitz of Milan for the industrial zeitgeist of Berlin. His new single, 'Hooked / Ice Crash' out on Hell Yeah is full of modern day surprises. Laurent Garnier, Tiga et al have been rinsing this for weeks.

Check out Ivan Smagghe's It's A Fine Line remix of 'Hooked' here.
