Holly Holzwarth

When I started to dj in the 1990s, I used to play mainly indie music, with a broad range from punk to pop. My focus changed during the years and got more and more soulful – today my heart beats especially for Modern & Crossover Soul. 
Since 2010 I am a member of the dj collective 45° Degrees in Hamburg/Germany, consisting of four female Soul deejays.

I love it so much that I try and use my skills and resources to make recordings in the styles that I enjoy, with the express aim of making them sound like material from the original era and good enough that DJs will play them at club nights and have cool people dance to them. I had a lot of enjoyment from making this music. I hope that you enjoy listening to it.

Mister Salt

I’m Mister Salt. I came to DJing through acid house but had been buying records for years before that as a child, mainly 7” singles and was always into the idea of creating mixtapes with mine and my parents records. Around 1988/89 I got in to the acid/house/rave scene and started to buy the electronic music on 12” that I was hearing and bought my first set of decks in the shape of 2 Technics HiFi turntables (SLBD22’s) along with a Realistic mixer with no cue function. I learned the hard way! That’s where my journey started. Over the years I’ve collected all genres of music which i think is reflected in my mixes and live streams. A few thousand records later and here we are back to my roots with 7” singles.

Mark Lancaster

I started buying records in 1974 as a 9 year old although I had been given a bunch of singles and an old portable record player prior to that. By the age of 12 I would spend all my pocket money on singles and it started an obsession with music. Although I buy albums and 12 inches the 7 inch 45 is my favourite format as it captures a moment and sounds better to me than any other format.
