Prantel

Born and raised in Southwest Berlin in the early 90s, Prantel missed out on most of the early influential happenings in the electronic music scene around his hometown but never failed to educate himself with the past through regular visits to the cities recordstores as well as long visits to several nightclubs. Eventually starting to deejay during high school has led him to discover new sounds and styles in music getting more poplar in the 21st century. This has never kept him from playing records older than himself though - his dj sets feature a wide selection with a focus on the early 90s blueprints of the US MidWest, as well as european developments in various genres throughout the years up to the mid 2000s. Feeling a fresh wind among recent releases nowadays his performances got diverse in sound and history of the records he plays to the crowd.

Running his own clubnight "Antidote" at Griessmuehle since 2016, focussing on bringing a different sound to stagnating Berlin nightlife, he takes part in a movement of a new Berlin-based generation of artists pushing a diversity in electronic music which has been missed for over a decade. His events usually feature two different musical themes consisting of either Techno, Electro, Acid and Ghetto-tech/house and run up to 24hours from time to time. Working closely with pioneers of said genres from all over the world he has already invited most of them to perform at his night.
In 2017, after running a year of successful events, he got invited to become a resident DJ and booker (until February 2020) at the club, soon leading to a noticeable effect on the venues programming and making himself a name worth checking out on any line up.
