Dub Flash
I'm the guy behind Dub Flash. It has always been a one-man-project. Born and raised in Berlin (West), the heart of Europe, music is a big hobby for me, and one thing that keeps driving me since I was a young teenager. While my main musical love is Dub music, I have and am also involved in other genres and projects. But at the end, I always return to Dub.
I've had my first DJ gig around 1993/94, still underaged. My first official DJ gig in a proper club was around 1996/97. During the most active Dub Flash years between 2003-2010, I played Dub sets all around Europe, including festivals. I'm not officially retired, but after 2010, I only played a few sets, often as a guest feature or even anonymously. There isn't really a reason for that, it just so happened, and I never liked being in the spotlight anyway.
That's also why at Dub Flash Records, I mostly am the producer in the background, releasing other people's work. While my preferred Dub style is heavy electronic stepping dubwise without vocals, it was always important to me, that Dub Flash features a big variety of different Dub styles, from reggae to rootical Dub to technoid Steppers to leftfield dubby beats, you can find it all.
It was and is also important to me to focus purely on the music, and not on the cultural aspects around this genre. My project is to highlight the musical genre Dub. Pure Dub.
Outside of the realm of music, I prefer to stay private. I seek peace and quiet, that's why I dream of the Andromedub Galaxy. I don't know anyone from there who is not a nice entity.
