Len Faki - Biography:

When Len Faki moved to Berlin in 2003, he already looked back to years of fruitful productivity and the management of two highly acclaimed Techno labels: Monoid and Feis. There, he had attracted artists such as Samuel L. Session, John Selway Umek and The Hacker, with releases of 12inches, albums and mix compilations.
His move to Berlin marked a decisive turning-point in his career. With Len Series he founded an independent platform and trademark for his idea of Techno music. The basic concept including sublabels allows him to explore musical depths and artistic freedom.
His strong appearances at venues like Tresor and Ostgut (Berlin) culminated in his residency at Berghain (the former Ostgut), a position which further fueled his open-minded approach as both DJ and producer. The characteristic extra-long DJ sets force him to vary in tone, style and feed him with extra inspiration.
At Berghain, he also launched the Podium night, a quarterly event where he invites his appreciated colleagues from all over the world. This step also resulted in the birth of his sublabel Podium with releases by Raudive (aka Oliver Ho) or Shinedoe. Right with his first offshoot, he stormed the cases and charts of top DJs/producers such as Luke Slater, Sven V..th and Ivan Smagghe.
While figure sees his own releases in loose combination with artist’s remixes, Podium features exclusive artist releases in combination with his own work. Whereas figure is like heavy tropical rain, Podium appears like a sharply defined sky after the downpour. Both labels stand for cutting-edge Techno music.
His bone-dry but communicative DJ style marks him as a true gentleman behind the turntable, an artist whose sets are based on passion and beauty. His finger tips are like sensors on the Richter scale, and anticipate as well as trigger eruptions on the floor...

515 are the most unoriginal sickening promoters in Dublin. Since when did they ever do acts like Len Faki? Like always let other nights bring the act over a few times and when they have enough exposure 515 gets them.

Add to the fact you's had to wait till Joris Voorn turned into the cheesist priick on the planet before you brought him in when he's was so much better about 3 years ago.

Bout time you gave Matador a support slot, but he had to do a remix for Cocoon before you gave him a look in. Persisting with crap support acts( Lorcan Mak warming up for Steve Lawler!! LOL) and unimaginative bookings.

You's are lucky you's had the Tripod at the peak of the boom in this country that's all I'll say.

It will be Fengler in Kennedys for me that night, shame they clash though!

what is your problem exactly we book acts that we want to play our night, all we are doing is bringing good acts to dublin, we have been trying to book joris for 2 x years but couldnt get a date and as for matador gav has been playing for me for 5 years as sourcecode and as matador i sense a bit of jealousy here so get over yourself and give some people props for having a succesful club night
