Le Knight Punx

Munich

Born and raised near Cologne in Germany, he was early digging his father's tape collection as a child. Boney M, Abba and Co. were his first musical encounters, whose disco sound still influences him today. In the mid-90s, he took his first steps as a DJ at private parties. With two regular CD players and a Mixer, he cut Dancefloor, Take That and Metallica to create a non-stop mix for his friends. In 1999, he moved to Munich and started his "real" DJ career. He bought two turntables and learned classic mixing with vinyl. The good tracks were only available on vinyl anyway and the weekly trip to his record dealer was the highlight of the week. The new genre French House with its emerging artists like Daft Punk, DJ Falcon or Alan Braxe and labels like Crydamour, Roulé, Grand Prix and Black Jack excited him. Musically, he remains true to his past. House, French House, Disco and Funky House as well as Jackin' House with influences from Jazz and the 70s are the main focus here. But he also has musical elements from his teenage years in the 80s in his repertoire with NuDisco and IndieDance. There may also be some Techno, but his Signature Sound is always characterised by a lot of melody, funk and groove. In 2008, he started his project Disco Department as an umbrella brand for his work. In addition to a podcast and a series of events to present this musical content, it has also served as a record label for his own and third-party productions since 2020.
