About Me

Irwin Leschet was born on an arctic island, on 10.02.71 and after a long and tearful journey he arrived in Cologne in 1996,where,in his own words he always belonged.
Within a few weeks of his arrival he was Resident DJ in the legendary Liquid Sky Club,and in these surroundings he began to produce his own tracks.
The move to Cologne gave the enthusiastic record and synthesizer collector the required kick to become a Musician.
Leschet began his DJ career in Trier,Germany in 1992.
As a DJ Leschet has already covered a broad spectrum;
..the performer with his self produced endless groove records,wehre he plays with 3 Technics,2 mixers,a Nord Modular and a DJ Collegue.
the Open Air DJ,with groovy Techno tunes that can turn a field into a pumping,dancing lifeform,the best example being the legendary Shoop Open Air partys.
the Lounge DJ,where he conjures groovy tunes out of a hat for hours on end,tried and tested in Liquid Sky,and heard every month by over 500 enthusiastic follwers at the 3 Klang party (Art theatre ,Cologne).
the Elektro Bunker resident,where he delivered hard techno sets,unforgotten the Open air Elektro Bunker partys for PopKomm,where Leschet seved up some great performances between 1997 and 2003.
..the Bastard Pop Bootlegger,where he conjures his own mixes from his exstensive vinyl collection.His close relationship to Remixers from Belgium and England allows him to present previously unheard tunes.
One can see that the man who has chosen Cologne as his home loves music and vinyl,that he is not a follwer of musical fashions,but instead a man who sets the trends.His charasmatic conduct,both behind and in front of the decks,helps to make his DJ sets remain as a great memory in the minds of the partygoers who see him perform.Leschet is a Technician who loves to use all the tools at his fingertips,without ever sounding overloaded.Its fun to watch this man work!
As a party maker and booker Leschet has had a hand in creating partys such as the Silberschwein,the Melange Galore in Gloria,Boildown in the Purple Club and recently the Backsteinclub in Cologne Ehrenfeld,often inviting musical soulbrothers from England or Belgium,the home of Bastard pop.
Numerous record releases in the techno,bigbeat and triphop field came about through cooperation with collegues.Projects were formed and the first releases(EMI/Harvest) appeared immediately on compilations alongside Coldcut and Air Liquide.The first solo 12 inch was voted Record of the Month by techno.de , and various others were to be found in numerous play lists from international DJs as well as on Mix tapes.
From 2001 to 2005 Leschet concentrated on Djing, which brought him behind the decks at Clubs and partys throughout Europe.
Since January 2006 he has been working on new realeases together with Serious Lee Wilde as "leschet & Wilde" featuring Vocal-Artists like Lucian Crisovan, Alison Degbe, Twila.to or Hannes Orange..


also remarkable - his jointventure with dr.beckmann... as "männer ohne nerven" "bas-toshis", "goldpuder" and "nasse pflaster". find out something here (in german) -- BAS TOSHIS HOMEPAGE
