For the latest edition of “absolutely on music”, the sun-yard at Haus 73 turned into a living room for Hamburg’s heads – part vinyl confessional, part warm-up ritual, and all groove. With Porcino, Holger Breuer, and Lukas Urbaum in the booth, the stream wasn’t about who dropped first or last, but about capturing that golden-hour energy where friends lean in closer, records crackle just right, and the line between pre-party and proper party disappears.
Appearing under his Porcino alias, Filippo MSM offered a set that felt like an invitation into his sprawling universe of sound. Known for steering labels like Kulture Galerie and Growing Pleasures, and for his work as half of Metropolitan Soul Museum, Filippo brought groove-rich selections that balanced playfulness and poise. His approach layered house with subtle left turns, a reminder that Porcino is more than a moniker – it’s a mindset.
Torture the Artist founder Holger Breuer mirrored his role as curator, connector, and selector with a performance that channeled both sharp taste and deep digging. House, Minimal, and Breakbeat threads came together with HipHop inflections, all shaped into a flow that was warm yet restless. It was storytelling through records: understated but never static, grooves unfolding like chapters in a book only he could write.
Lukas Urbaum leaned into dusty textures, hypnotic loops, and subtle funk, tying everything together with precision. His set pulled you in without force, unfolding gradually into an understated hypnosis that left the yard both buzzing and at ease. It was a masterclass in balance: deep listening with a nod to the dancefloor waiting inside
As the sun dipped behind Hamburg’s rooftops, the stream gave way to the night. The action shifted into Haus 73’s club space, where Cat Curl joined the lineup alongside Filippo MSM, Holger Breuer, and Lukas Urbaum for eDEMi’s main event – proving once again that the spirit of the stream and the pulse of the dancefloor are two sides of the same story.
