Biography of Booka Shade
Booka Shade are Walter Merziger and Arno Kammermeier, production masterminds behind most Get Physical releases (eg all releases and remixes of M.A.N.D.Y., DJ T., Sunsetpeople and Chelonis R. Jones). In charge of their own production company and studio for the last 15 years, they have applied their wide range of talents not only to the realm of electronic music, but also a large number of other media productions. After two early 90s synth pop album releases and a number of live tours, they switched their attention to club projects for established labels like R&S, Harthouse or Tommy Boy. But it was their early incarnation of Booka Shade on illustrious Dutch label Touché which hit the zeitgeist and triggered excitement and enthusiasm in clubs all across Europe.
Together with their old friends Patrick Bodmer and Philipp Jung aka M.A.N.D.Y. they decided to found their own label, and after meeting Groove publisher Thomas Koch aka DJ T. Get Physical was finally launched in early 2002. After the intense build up and promotion of label artists M.A.N.D.Y., DJ T., Sunsetpeople and Chelonis R. Jones, in 2004 it was time for Booka Shade to pursue their own solo careers again.
For their first album “Memento” the two producers have poured the essence of their joint musical background into contemporary moulds. Observing a healthy balance between pop appeal and experimentation they have concocted unusual blends of modern 4/4 sketches and timeless listening titles. As part of a live set Booka Shade present exerpts from the album. Visuals and films exclusively produced for the show help to translate the album´s intense and cinematic atmosphere to the stage.

Comment: This is nice music. Booka has pleased me, I didn't expect such music. It's beautiful Electro. The last track is excellent. I used to listen to them when they were progressive so this was a very unexpected but very pleasant turn to Electro. Please continue in the same spirit!

Comment: This is very good stuff from Booka Shade. I saw them at the Love Parade in Essen, Germany and they were the TOP. I think they are newcomers and they started off with a racket. The quality of the download was very good but it was too short. I want more more more!

Comment: At first I surprised to hear this was Booka Shade, having only experienced them through their album release Memento which I love. Not to say I didn't enjoy this mix though, definitely worth a listen. Can't wait to see them live this weekend at Stereosonic Melbourne

Comment: I'd never heard of these folks before. Thanks mpiii for introducing me! Very nice. One of the great things about this site is that it allows me to discover new artists (or new to me artists). Also, anyone know who did the cover of the Tom Petty song? It's awesome! I'd love to get some of that artist's music.

Comment: This pair consistently amaze me. I have yet to see them live but will hopefully be able to see them sometime soon. This is very short but nonetheless is a good chance to experience what they are about. Many thanks for this download! :)

Comment: I never thought I'd say this about Electro but this is beautiful, relaxing music; the kind that will take you off on a journey if you just want to relax and go with the flow. The final track is the perfect finish. I'll definitely be watching these guys with interest.

Comment: This is another good mix from Booka Shade i really enjoyed listening to, it's a lot different from when i last heard them play (Global Gathering 2007) but i think it's a nice mixture of deep house sounds and chilled electro. Altogether one that you could listen to as a chill out or as a warm up for the club, nice!

Comment: I like Booka Shade I've got to say. I'm not much into Tech House but I have a couple of their CDs and true to their style this set is mellow yet melodic. Glad I came across this site with all these hard to find sets. Good work MPiii.com.

Comment: Very danceable. Good depth of rhythms. Bouncy enough to be chill. Quality recording. Recommend to those outside out techno genre as Minimal melodic elements are a trip. Acid noises. Electro elements. House beats have a presence in this techno sound.

Comment: Really pleasant set from Booka Shade, amazing tracklist (maybe their best set in 2007 if you only consider the choice of tracks) but i must say i'm a bit disappointed with the general mixing performance, compared to their essential mix or their dj kicks release for example. Still an enjoyable set, quite relaxing and full of melodic tracks perfectly mixed up with some deep house beats. Definitely worth the download !
