2018 Rewind: Don Rimini

don-rimini

How was 2018 for you?

Busy as hell, but I did love it. I’ve produced four new EPs plus one bonus track on my label, Bunkaball, and for We Jack (Gettoblaster’s imprint), and four remixes for Jojo Angel, Rich Pinder, Gettoblaster, Enzo Siffredi on Wired, Psycho Disco, Kenja, White Widow Records. I’ve worked hard on my label Bunkaball. We have done 18 releases this year including EPs and compilations.

Highlights?

Techno Parade in September. Playing in the streets of Paris, in front of 300K peeps.

So proud to have DJ Slugo (legend Of Chicago) and Enzo Siffredi, on the remixed Vol. 2 compilation from my label. And more than happy to see all the support we had this year: Laurent Garnier, Loco Dice, Amine Edge, Anna Lunoe, Gene Farris, Roog, Mark Knight, Robert Owens, Basement Jaxx, Clyde P, Wongo…

Our residency Bunkaball Radio Show with my friend Marvy on Rinse France.

Lowlights?

Politics and lobbies don’t care about our planet and us. We have to stop this overconsumption too.

Song of the year?

Techno: Alexander Technique – Big Up [Dopewax]
Lo-fi house: Adryiano – Dreams With [Shall Not Fade]
Chicago house: Greg N Grandi – Erotomania [InHouse]
UK house: Dennis Quin, Shermanology – Move Out Of My Way [Be Yourself Music]
Ghetto house: DJ Ze MigL & Lester Fitzpatrick – Chi Getho101 [???]
Tech-house: GotSome – Everybody Know Now [Armanda Deep]

What’s your New Year’s resolution?

To continue working hard for my label and my productions. In January my new EP Curiosa will be out on the great Food Music label. Then one EP each month is scheduled to June 2019. Yaaaaachhhh!!!
