FEELAZ (Extension Electronic Music) Poznan/PL


 

Feelaz started to get interested in electronic music in the mid-nineties. The main reason was probably that he moved to poland after living in germany for 12 years. On a holiday in London he bought his first records (mainly old Jungle stuff) and started to collect them. By this time the first "Tresor" parties, which had a big influence on him at this time, where organised in his hometown Poznan and such artists as Cristian Vogel or Tobias Schmidt played there for the first time. In 1999 he met Pete Bull who dj'd and organised small underground parties for quite a long time already. They got on very well so he invited Feelaz to play on some party together. After some time (and a lot of beers and spliffs together ;-)) they started a residency in the (latershutbythepolicefornofuckingreason) very small but already cult club Centrala, where all other dj's from poznan played with them for almost a year. In year 2000 they started to organise parties in the MO club inviting everybody who is doing cool stuff from all over poland. Maad, Chris Da'Break, Krisb and many others have dj'd there and such artists as Marcin Czubala (Currently Processing rec.) or Jacek Sienkiewicz (Recognition rec.) played a live set. Pete Bull moved to Warsaw in 2001 and "Extension" was founded to start something new. After that there where parties organised in the legendary Eskulap club and a 3 year residency in the great ZEZ club, which unfortunately closed in mid-2004:-( By now Feelaz has played all over poland and a few gigs abroad. The music he plays is not easy to describe. It's a mixture of all kindz of electro'n'broken beatz, funky techno, and anything else what comes to his mind, never forgetting to keep the funk and bass the dancefloor! He sometimes also plays more housey oriented and special chill-out sets. It all depends on the party and the people...
