Recommended: Booka Shade





Booka Shade is a German house duo made up of Walter Merziger and Arno Kammermeier. Though already four albums in, Booka Shade have retained the sense of underground authenticity and mystery which saw their name become a reference point for German house and techno.

The true charm of Booka Shade lies in their ability to work massive crowds at diverse parties the world over whilst staying true to the spirit and sound of minimalistic German techno, a notoriously repetitive, niche sound. Whilst Resident Advisor called their single ‘Body Language’ “one of the biggest releases of the year”, ‘In White Rooms’ is a perfect example of tech-house deep enough to see you well past 6am.

With regular tour dates worldwide, Booka Shade are an act to catch soon if you haven’t already jumped on the bandwagon.
