Genetic Drugs

After almost two decade of travels all around the globe the 'audiopharmaceutical travel agent' Genetic druGs looks back on an impressive amount of experiences, musical influences and album releases. What started as an audiophile travel diary with his debut "Karma Club" developed into a formidable amount of DJ-sets/shows and CD releases.
Genetic collects pictures, music, voices, instruments and atmospheres at their point of emergence: in streets, shops, temples, fields and private living rooms! His passionate and inexorable sound gathering allows him to create cut-up soundscapes with his recordings from West Africa, India, China, Japan, Hawaii, Brazil and Mexico. Global ingredients are mixed into a highly potent medicine. For seven years he has been offering this curing cocktail to his fans in his radio show "Cyberjam" on RBB radiomultikulti in Berlin and WDR Funkhaus Europa in Cologne.
His acoustic first aid-kit contains energizing Drum and Bass, blood warming House grooves and soothing Trip Hop. The components for his soul strengthening ointment are live sounds from all over the world: street scenes from urban India, movie bits from Bollywood and Tamil movies, PA announcements from the Tokyo underground, Hawaiian chants or African healing ritual music. Results of his mixes are hip moving dancefloor slayers and tracks that open some new doors to cultural perception.
The material for his global audiophile excursions is not limited to sound but extends to moving images.
Genetic has created four enticing video installations: Karma Club with pictures and films of his 4000 km journey through India and Nepal, Vodoun Benin meets Genetic druGs, The Afro Pharma Experience and finally a live music show Bollywood Spacecake, that heaves even the humblest homes with its singing and dancing indian film stars
The key of his life is exploring the colourful spectrum of cultural expressions in pictures, sounds, voices and instruments, that seduces him ever again to set out to new expeditions.
Genetic is explorer, music and picture dealer, sound archivist, mood merchant, culture broker and dance floor mechanist: Your audiopharmaceutical travel agent!
