Da ich das Golden Gate sehr mag, gibt es hier auch mal nen längeren Programm Überblick. Wer es dreckig, und düster mag und auf Techno steht, dazu auf klein, voll und immer offen, der ist im Golden Gate zwischen Alex und Jannowitzbrücke recht gut aufgehoben. Wundervolle Sets bis in die späten Mittagsstunden, trashige Untergrundatmo, grenzverballertes Parallelweltpublikum und dreckige Klos. Letztes jahr wurde 10jähriges gefeiert und man darf hoffen, dass es auch ein 20jähriges geben wird.
In der taz gab es mal dieses wunderbare Interview mit Hubi und Reimund. Mein Lieblingszitat:
Wer sind eure Gäste?
Spitzer: Die sind ziemlich unterschiedlich, aber man könnte sagen: Es sind Spinner – aber die Sorte Spinner, die wach und offen sind, hellsichtig geradezu, die mehr mitkriegen von der Welt, die mehr sehen als andere Leute. Also die liebenswerte, fast schon schlaue Art von Spinnern.
Ich wünsche viel Spaß!

BEN ANDERS @ Golden Gate Club: Sonntag 18. August 2013
Electronic music producers are very special individuals, not only do some have the skills, tools and ideas necessary to imagine, write and produce their music, some totally represent it, they share it, they travel it and the most dedicated simply live it. Ben Anders is one of these artists, if not the embodiment of this way of life. Ultimately dedicated to his work, his passion is clear whether he is speaking through words or through his deeply musical, yet strikingly state-of-the-art House music. During his youth, Ben Anders spent his time listening to Metal music and played guitars in various bands. He discovered electronic sounds through Electronica and early House music. After some time he was seduced by the german house and minimal scene. Ben Anders music could be described as a mix between low minimal wounded grooves and deep funky and groovy tech/house sequences. Ben has been deejaying since 10 years. Two years ago he also started producing his own stuff. After some Releases on OFF and Percusa he gets support from Artists like Karotte, Sven Väth, Reboot, Ilario Alicante, Brothers Vibe, DJ WILD, Anthony Collins, Ray Okpara, Livio & Roby, Alex Picone, Patrick Zigon, Gel Abril, Andre Crom, Einzelkind, Julietta, Varoslav, Luciano and many more.
