Our D2D fam is getting bigger
The beat virtuoso Thallus is joining our ranks with his melodic sp-404 sound and will be cooking up our next label installment. Well beyond the sum of his influences is his retro-futuristic sound that looks back but thinks forward. 🧢
Thallus's production forte is the melding of Jazz and Lo-Fi with early 90s East Coast boom-bap that makes your head bumpin and shaking - so be on the lookout... More news TBA!
special shoutout to DJ QUIEN for those hella snaps 📷

We are finally back with some action!
It's been over 2 months since our last event and we're super excited to announce that we're officially back in our second home at Panke on March 19. The vibe is going to be a loungey hip hop session with some D2D all-star artists who have been itching to be back and hopefully we'll see some familiar faces in the crowd.
Another exciting project to announce is our first event series on 18th of March, initiated with our partner collective RabenBau: Blunt Shelter at the beautiful Monarch Berlin! The idea is to promote the exchange of different electronic genres, creative minds and a limitless selection of music in a safe setting for all.

After a necessary break from our weekly events, we are starting 2022 with a project that is very close to our hearts. Our longtime friend and SP-404 wizard, ColDrip is releasing what is now their 5th album through our label.
ColDrip has been with us since the beginning of our shows in 2018 and has come through as an up-and-coming artist from down under with a special fondness for trippy loops and melodic wave sounds that takes you on a special kind of trip. Fittingly, we decided to name this new beat project "Lucid//" to highlight the journey they've been on since arriving in Berlin and finding themselves in the midst of a lucid dream between spacey nights and 8-bit tunes. 🎮👾
Inspired by old-school gaming & anime characters like Akira and Sonic the hedgehog, this album will take you back to the 90s with a special spin that’ll challenge how you perceive rehashed music in the present day.
Lucid// will be released digitally and on cassette on the 18th of February.
Stay tuned and check out the pre-save link in the meantime!
Mad happy to announce that we will now include these superfly rolling papers by our new partners Woodzl Papers to every order that is placed through our Bandcamp store or DMs.
Unbleached h**p papers for all responsible smokers out there 🥦💨
We’re also working on new releases, so keep your eyes open for some hot stuff coming your way in the following weeks 🔥

Urlaub auf den Misantropen 🌴
Unser nächster Release steht in den Startlöchern mit unseren beiden D2D Veteranen Wall Ra & Longshadow aka , die uns zum Ausklang der Sommerzeit nochmal kräftig einheizen mit ihrem Debütalbum “Urlaub auf den Misantropen”.
Jede Hook des Double Cup Hustlers Wall Ra zieht dich direkt auf die rostige Sonnenliege, während radioaktive Beats deine Haut knusprig emittieren. Kulturattachés aus dem Berliner Untergrund, die dich im Dunst der Giftschwaden verführen und immer weiter in den grünen Whirlpool eines systemkritischen Loverboys ziehen. Die verspielte Urlaubs-Romantik kommt vor allem zum Glänzen durch den instrumentalen Reiseführer von , der dich bei jedem noch so menschenfeindlichen Beatsample zum Rewinden zwingt.
Wer holt den Chardonnay von der Tanke? Wie kreist der Garnelenring? Antworten auf diese und weitere Fragen liefern euch die beiden auf ihrer Reise gen Misantropia - Menschheit adé, Urlaub olé.
Das Album ist ab dem 29ten Oktober in allen digitalen Stores erhältlich und wird als streng limitierte Auflage als Tape verkauft!
Mixed & mastered wurde das Album von unserem Studiogott Hentzup
Das Cover-Design stammt aus der Feder von unserer PnC .bad
Dubbing von Grandmaster Carl Hang

Happy Releaseday to our Brother Lex Luga!!
The man, the legend, Lex Luga joined our D2D roster for the upcoming release "Gleise". A 6-Track EP that will take you back to the true east coast boombap sound of the 90s. 🚆
Influenced by names like Premier, KRS-One and Pete Rock, produced this EP in northern Germany with the aim to revive old school vibes that you don't hear often in newer productions. If you are a hip hop romantic of the 90s, then this music really hits a chord.
Check this beauty out! 👀
We promised smth really special for our upcoming release with Lex Luga and our bro and graffiti veteran Paspa2 delivered this massive custom painted model train - bringing back the true gritty flavour of the 90s with this hand painted piece. 🚋

The track is called “Station 7” and part of our upcoming release “Gleise” which is dropping on the 27th of August on all digital stores!
