    the jazzanova gigs are amazing as always. last time they were here with fauna
    flash and obviously rainer truby and michael reinboth. michael and rainer came
    in together about two months ago and I had the chance to hang out with them,
    they are all really relaxed cool people. all about the music. michael is kinda
    boring but rainer is an amazing guy. he actually spins much better than
    reinboth.

    dj emre is a techno dj and what I mean by that is he actually banging from wall
    the wall with no spirit. hate to tell the truth sometimes. I had represented
    about 14 of the top djs here and worked with the likes of MAW, gene farris and
    david alvarado as well as king britt and emre never got into my roster.

    b good
