Josia Schlakker

The Schlakker sound is characterized by a variety of euphoric melodies, energetic rhythms, and distinctive techno, which the artist affectionately summarizes under the term “groovetrance.” Here, classic trance and hard house sounds meet modern breakbeat elements, UK garage, and a dash of groove and funk. Through performances at events such as Vinyl Wednesday, at the former Culteum, and at events organized by established rave collectives from Karlsruhe, Josia Schlakker enjoys great popularity, particularly among the student crowd. Anyone who has already seen the 21-year-old DJ in his element knows that the artist fully stands behind his track selection and radiates an enthusiasm that is contagious.
