Stranger Funk ist zurück in der Panke, Funk, Disco, Soul und Boogie haben wieder einen sicheren Hafen, und wie: Auch dieses Mal gibt es wieder ein hochkarätiges Programm für Euch, dass alle – und ich meine alle – zum Tanzen bringen wird.
KNOW NO BOUNDS (Live, Berlin)
Auf der Stranger Funk Bühne haben wir dieses Mal die großartige Berliner Band „Know No Bounds“, die für uns ein wahres Funk und Disco Inferno abfeuern werden. Die Band um Sängerin Lilly besteht bereits seit 2011, früher haben sie Rock’n’Roll aufs Parkett gebracht, nach einer kreativen Pause rund um die Pandemie (you remember) haben die 7 Musiker*innen ihre Segel neu ausgerichtet und Funk zum Nordstern erklärt: Aus Lillys einzigartig rauchiger Soulstimme wird zusammen mit richtig starken Bläsern, Bassgitarre und Drums eine funky runde Sache. Know No Bounds werden die Grenzen sprengen und uns richtig in Schwung bringen!

DAVE THORLEY (Disco30/House Party)
Dave steht seit Mitte der 1970er Jahre hinter den Plattentellern, er spielte in legendären UK Locations u.a. in Yate und Wigan (!!). Eine wahre Legende der Soul Musik, die einen fantastischen Mix zaubert, von Soul bis Disco und sogar House. In den 1980ern war er Veranstalter der Top Of The World Allnighter in Stafford (Google it!). 3 Mal die Woche steht er bei der Radioshow „Crossing The Tracks“ an den Reglern, mit einer einzigartigen Musikauswahl und seiner warmen Stimme bringt der Wahlberliner 40 Jahre Soul Music Evolution regelmäßig auch bei der Disco 30 im Monarch auf die Plattenteller. Heute ist er bei uns und wird ein fantastisches Set abliefern, es ist Daves Panke Debüt, darauf freuen wir uns ganz besonders.

RIKO ROOS (In Between, Berlin)
Ihr erkennt Riko Roos gleich, wenn ihr reinkommt: Schnauzer und Trainingsanzug sind sein Markenzeichen an den Reglern und im Leben, und das bereits sei 1989 (da habe ich Bauklötze gestapelt!). Riko ist inzwischen ein wahrer Freund der Stranger Funk Reihe geworden und ein beliebter Gast bei allen Gästen. Seine energetische Mischung auf Nu Funk, Dancefloor Jazz und Breakbeats ist genau richtig bei Stranger Funk und erinnert mich immer an die good old days Anfang der 2000er Jahre, als Funk ein modern angehauchtes Revival erlebte. Richtig gut!

SOULSKI (Stranger Funk, Berlin)
Ich mach die Party für Euch, weil ich Bock darauf habe, schöne Musik mag und die Panke feiere. Ich spiele genau das, was heute gebraucht wird: Funk, Disco und Boogie mit einem Augenzwinkern, die Zeiten sind ernst genug. Kein Show off der Coolness, sondern Liebe, Wärme und Miteinander. Life is once, enjoy it as much as you can.

~ Our favorite live bands from the Berlin scene FLIGHTMODE ~ we heben ab a bit more guitar-heavy than last time, but no less diverse ~ Singer-songwriter FRITZI guides us through boarding & take off with sanften sounds and German lyrics that sound heavy with autumn melancholy, every now and then falling into grungier walls of sound, which makes the contrast to her persona all the more exciting. FRANCOS PAIN flies us um die ears with an exciting solo setup through atmospheric post punk songs, far from rigid song structures, and still always catchy ~ KRESSE 3 bring us back down to earth of tatsachen with driving grooves and poetic lyrics, playing their first show since their sold out album release party this summer The safe landing, which might get pretty turbulent though~ WHISKER as final act takes us through eccentric prog and experimental rock worlds and are definitely the most nerven zerreibender act tonight ~ Come join us from 7pm, show starts at 8pm. Can’t wait ~ Presale 10 euros, a little more at the door, so get your ticket now! ~

Bassism 5.0 feat. N-Type & Slowie
Celebrating 21 Years of Bassism + 50 Years of Tommy Lexxus. Deep dubstep, grime, and futuristic halftime pressure all night long.
The event takes place on the 16th of October starting at 23:00:00.
Celebrating 21 Years of Bassism + 50 Years of Tommy Lexxus. Deep dubstep, grime, and futuristic halftime pressure all night long. Including an all-star global lineup, the sub frequencies are going down at Panke Culture, one of Berlin’s shining lights for underground bass. Music starts promptly at 23:00.
N-Type is an award winning DJ and founder of the record label Wheel & Deal, with a discography a mile long. He just celebrated 20 years on Rinse FM, as a standout mixologist and one of the best DJs in the genre. Author of Dubstep Allstars Vol.5 on Tempa, and his latest album Typography. Fast Forward to 2026 – and he will undoubtedly bring down the house at Panke. Expect lots of wheelies as this dubplate don takes the reins.
Joining N-Type on stage is the Bristol boy Slowie! With massive releases on Wheel & Deal, sfam, Foundation Audio and Durkle Disco. His latest collab with our mates Truth just hit the shelves on Deep, Dark & Dangerous. His own imprint Dee Oh 7 can be found leading the Grime charge on Bandcamp. Catch his recent performance on Red Bull Mic Flex, where he went toe to toe with our recent headliner Snowy.
Back for the third year in a row, DJ Squarewave is blowing the charts up with his latest gems on New World Audio. Most notably, he won “Best Alternative Act” in the UK Asian Music Awards back in the day. Currently he is the host of “Grime on the Canal,” a live-streamed set performed alongside Roll Deep’s Roachee directly from a boat deck in East London.
All the way from Grass Valley, California, BOGL is back for another round of Bassism glory. He & Tommy worked together on the very first Dubstep truck at Love Parade San Francisco. They also made the first and only Soundpieces event at IPSE in 2018. Between Los Angeles and the Bay Area, BOGL has kept the West Coast steeped in sub bass for over two decades.
Alyaz, a foundational figure in the Czech underground. He started Sapyen Records and heads up the X-Ray bass nights. This Mode Radio host has become a driving force in this collaboration. On Saturday after Panke, the gang will run it back at Fuchs2 in Prague.
Off the east coast of Africa, Mista Baptiste is globetrotting from Réunion Island to bring the sound of classic dub to Berlin. From his biggest releases on Moonshine with Sekkleman and Radikal Guru, and collabs with Zion Train, Jabbadub and Steel Alive.
Making her debut for Bassism, former curator of Berlin’s Grimelist, Scre_wy, originally from Napoli, will build the cinematic suspense early on. Her latest mix for Hundert Records explores the fringes of 140 bass, where her mix for Sub FM revolves in deep halftime territory.
Tommy handpicked Bassism crew mates VILIFY, Grzly Adams, DJ Quien and MC Do to round out this incredibly dynamic team-up. This is not just an accouterment of random friends on the lineup. These are top-tier musicians on the label making noise on a global scale. Every artist performing is a headliner in their own right.
Live visuals by deviate’s SCHiQUE. In cooperation with New World Audio, Wheel & Deal Records and X-Ray.
