Just a quick heads up – it`s time for our bi-annual sneakermarket Kicks&Cake this sunday and we just confirmed a screening of the epic “Just For Kicks” documentary from 2005, extra special: the Director behind it, Thibaut de Longeville, will be joining us here in Cologne for that occasion and give some background information on how the documentary came to life… WIN.

This is nice. “Keys N Krates” is the band of Canadien DJ JR Flo, of the “EH! Team”, Matisse (Keys) and Adam Tune (drums), who just dropped their first mixtape // Live-Remixing 101, a journey through the history of hiphop and dance music. The cool thing about it is that various classics get ripped apart, chopped up and then rebuild in real time which makes this tape stand out. There is no track list but the tape hosts names such as Mos Def, ATCQ, Fugees, Simian Mobile Disco and Justice just to name a few… It’s good party stuff – just give it a run!
This blog is mostly about music appreciation, for real. Rather than participating in nowadays "we were first" blog game we focus on timeless tracks and a few exclusives we think you should hear and play out. There simply is too much crap around. Anyways, if you own the copyright in something that is up here and want an audio link removed or feel like getting in contact for whatever reason please email to holla [at] 123rakete.de.
Other than that we are three DJ`s from Cologne running a monthly clubnight, dj around elsewhere a bit, enjoy both vinyl and mp3`s next to some other random stuff.
