He always tries to combine old heroes and newcomers in his mixes. Artists who have been with him for decades, like Einstürzende Neubauten or Xmal Deutschland, are featured alongside friends whose work he truly appreciates, such as Facets or Zee Mon. His sets span a range of genres, from Belgian New Beat to Acid House with a Goth touch, and include old-school electro reminiscent of The Hague and Canadian EBM. The vibe is always dark and international.
