Different Drum Berlin

21/11/2023

Dear listeners,

After a prolonged silence and some back and forth about if and how we would like to continue, we feel like it is now time to let you know that our Different Drum Berlin format has come an end. After three years ‘on the air’ and a total of 35 consecutive shows plus a guest appearance on Worldwide FM, we decided to take a break at the start of this year. Sadly, when we returned from the break, our shows had all but disappeared from The Good Neighbor on Mixcloud. Upon inquiring, we were informed that the pro account had been ‘deactivated’, but would be ‘reactivated’ as soon as we decided to continue.

Long story short, we recorded one more show back in August, show #36, which you can find on Mixcloud, but never got around to promoting it, so consider it one for the road. Unfortunately it seems the label has no interest in maintaining the The Good Neighbor platform and didn’t even have the decency to tell us. That being said, we have decided to no longer pursue our Different Drum endeavors.

We invested a lot of time and energy and passion and effort into these shows and are honestly disheartened that it should end like this. We nonetheless would like to express our gratitude for having received this opportunity to select and share the music we love. We would also like to give a special shout-out and big thank you to all of you, who supported us and tuned in and contributed to our show.

One love,

Tobi & Lev

You may or may not have noticed, that our activities on this page have come to somewhat of a halt. After 35 straight shows for The Good Neighbor and a special Sonar Kollektiv guest appearance on Worldwide FM, we decided to take a step back from our monthly selections and focus on our other daily doings.

In the meantime, we acquired some brilliant guest mixes for the TGN Mixcloud channel, one of which went online yesterday. Check out Basel, Switzerland-based and Turkish-born keyboard player, singer, songwriter and producer Cansu Kandemir Music's blazing guest mix, that covers a whole lot of ground. Just the way we like it. Click below to listen to the full selection and stay tuned!

Thank you all for your continued support, check The Good Neighbor on Mixcloud for more amazing selections and find us on Instagram for the latest on Different Drum Berlin. One love! 🥁😘
