Praterei harks back to the halcyon days of clubs like The Loft and The Paradise Garage, fully dedicated to underground dance music. Expect a mixture of extra deep house and techno with a generous helping of disco thrown in from the vaults of internationally known deep-diggin' vinyl enthusiasts. Their attention to detail on the production side like flyers, posters and visuals, as well as the forwar
d thinking booking strategy gave them the extra flink of reputation, being the place where the world´s finest DJs want to play at. Soulphiction, Wbeeza, Move D, Gerd Janson, Kerri Chandler, Motor City Drum Ensemble, Iron Curtis, Marcello Napoletano, Ethyl & Flori, The Revenge, Prosumer, Tensnake, Maurice Fulton, Levon Vincent, Nina Kraviz, Derrick May, Black Jazz Consortium, Andre Lodemann, Floating Points, Reade Truth, Losoul, Swede:art, Mirko Machine, Kristian Davidek, Bobbito Garcia, S***f Crew, Kez YM, GI Disco, Chicago Skyway, Rick Wilhite, Andrés, Red D, Restoration, San Soda, Legowelt, Deep Space Orchestra, Italo Johnson, Brawther, Reboot Joy Confession, Ksoul, Tama Sumo, Blawan, Mark E, James Johnston, KRL, Medlar, John Heckle, Juju&Jordash, Gerry Read, Red Rack'em, ... to name just a few. Since 2009 we once in a while were passing out handnumbered vinyl releases featuring exclusive tunes by artists who played at our club night. At the same time it evolved into a homebase for new artists, such as analogue rebel 7 Citizens (as well part of Hundred20 alongside Motor City Drum Ensemble) - or The New Tower Generation, a cheeky talented producer duo, introduced in 2012 on our fourth & fifth vinyl. Editions 1 to 3 sold out rapidly, charted and supported by artists such as The Revenge, We Play House, Cottam, Sammy Dee, Iron Curtis, Marcello Napoletano, Quarion, S***f Crew, Glimpse, Murphy Jax, Tyree Cooper, Milton Jackson, Motor City Drum Ensemble, Jimpster and many others. http://www.soundcloud.com/praterei http://www.discogs.com/label/Praterei
