About Me

The Ancient Astronauts are Kabanjak and Dogu from the Switchstance Recordings label, based in Moers at the lower Rhine in Germany. These two very versatile DJs and producers are well-known for setting every dancefloor on fire while letting the crowd's hips shake joyously. They never fail to stun with their colourful selection of danceable pearls from Raw Funk, Afro, Hip Hop, Reggae and modern Dopebeats. Being also heavy in rotation as remixers they already did remixes for Fort Knox Five, Up Bustle & Out, Ladybug Mecca (Digable Planets), Zion I & The Grouch, Dr. Rubberfunk, Zion Train, etc. The label itself is famous in the international club and boardsports circles for its extremely funky productions as well as the dynamic sets of its DJ Collective. Renowned events such as Air & Style/AUT, Winter Music Conference/USA, Midem/FR, Roxy Chicken Jam/CH, Burton European Open/CH, Popkomm/GER and many more have experienced the unique and typical styles of Switchstance, while the likes of Quantic, Fort Knox Five, LTJ Bukem, Soulpatrol, Mr. Scruff or Kid Loco have long become fans of the label and its music.

So come over and have a Funk Ride with the Ancient Astronauts!!!
