The bleepgeeks crew feels very blessed to welcome undergroud disco legend Dj Rahaan from Chicago. As part of the threesome-axis Berlin, Dresden and Ulm, we managed to get Rahaan to Germany for the first time!
First of all, Rahaan is a dj from Chicago. What makes him so special, is his ability to constantly create a huge amount of energy that is focused on the dance, on creating a dense environment, where the single record becomes much more than one song mixed into another, the music communicates with the dancer and turns the crowd into the center of the party.
But before Rahaan made his presence on the global dance floor, Rahaan was playing his music from his cassette tapes with his dance crew called the Chuck Brothers. He then moved to the state of Wisconsin, whereby he started to grow a serious collection of disco and house records. In 1996 Rahaan moved back to Chicago started hanging out with his old friends, forming the reunion of the Chuck Brothers once again.
Schooled in the inspiring tradition of DJs in Chicago he absorbed the mad creativity of Ron Hardy and the sensitive taste of Frankie Knuckles, he shared a common passion for crazy disco records and the art of djing with similar minded chicago heads like Sadar Bahar and others…
During the 90’s Rahaan was building up his reputation as one of Chicago’s finest Disco/House DJ, playing at a hot club called “The Spot” and the infamous loft parties with Mr.Bill, Pee Wee and friends. This opened the door for Rahaan to perform on guest spots for Sisterz of Vision and Soul In The Hole club nights, followed by a residency “Budda Lounge” – one of Chicago’s best nightclubs.
Rahaan got his start to international fame through his highly praised dj-mixes, made available to the world by bringtheheat, chuckbrothers and deephousepage. In all the mixes he shows his musical diversity – playing around with amazing soulful disco, pulling deep unknown album cuts, making disco classics sound like u never heard `em before, pumping up some jackin house tracks or playing obscure european disco-not-disco. All the time u can hear the passion and originality of „the sounds of Rahaan“ – the real human touch!
On the release front, he recently shared a few of his much appreciated home-made disco edits on labels like Jisco Music, KAT and Stillove4music. Deep in the tradition of the fierce edits a la Ron Hardy – Rahaan makes disco edits sound like jacking house music!
Lately he’s been busy touring the whole world, having literally killed dancefloors in Japan, Australia, Amsterdam, Spain, Ireland, Scotland, England and throughout America, but his journeys never brought him to Germany. This is gonna change!
Our favourite club eden will be heated and the bleepgeeks dj's will warm up things before Rahaan will taker over for extended music pleasures.
Come early, dance longer, it will be happiness!
