Jogarde

Born and raised in Stuttgart Jogarde or Josip Hubzin is primarily a record collector with a DJ's ear for the dance floor. Discovering his affinity for all kind of black rooted music in the early nintees while playing stuff for local b-boys, it didn't take him long to realize that although he wasn't keen on being a DJ, he had to stay one.
Meanwhile, after his studies in Zagreb eventually led him to stay in Croatia's capital, Jogarde has played a wide range of clubs and events. Amongst them an all-time residency at Zagreb's famous club "Masters" and for a few years at Club Aquarius Zagreb as well as being a host for and a DJ next to Henrik Schwarz, Prins Thomas, Darshan Jesrani, Andy Whittaker, Ilija Rudman, Gerd Janson, Dixon and Âme.
For Jogarde it's all all about music with soul, no matter what you call it: noodly Jazz, midtempo tunes, Afro, Disco, Deep House, Detroit, Classics, pure and cutting edge madness. That's probably why he named his monthly program "Freilauf" (freewheel). You know that feeling when you ride a bicycle without using the pedals...
Jogarde is also partner of the famous Kontrapunkt event series hosted by Eddy Ramich (Compost) where he warmed up the floors for Jazzanova, Recloose, Atjazz, Mad Mats and Rainer Trueby. Jogarde thinks that music and art are god's gifts for better living. He's right !
