About Me

With a bunch of high-profile releases to his name, British-German DJ/producer Lars Moston is currently making a good deal of noise in clubland. Apart from solo work, he is also one half of Moston & Malente and one third of The Killergroove Formula. Moston & Malente have been big in the game ever since their first release "In the Sky", on Hamburg-based Moonbootique Rec., became a club hit that earned them no.4 in the German Club Chart (DCC), world-wide compilation deals and video airplay on music television. More recently, it was "The 2 & Only" on Manchester's high-rising Breaks imprint Splank! Rec. that made a name for Moston & Malente in the UK after it was crowned Record Of The Month in IDJ magazine. Now it is their new track "F*cked Up" that is getting all the attention, peaking at no.5 in the DCC with support coming from some big names worldwide.
Also, Lars Moston is now entering the big league with his crew The Killergroove Formula, who are receiving awesome DJ feedback and rave reviews for their debut album "Territory: World" (Lounge Rec.) after having already had a string of successful 12"es and remixes on well-respected labels such as Lab-Rok and Unique Rec.
When DJing, Lars mixes a unique Electro style. Enjoying a pumping 4/4 set just as much as breaking it up, he dishes out trademark tunage to a wide variety of crowds. Having headlined gigs in the UK, Spain, Russia, Austria, Switzerland, Holland, Ukraine and Germany in 2007 alone, he is now set to move dancefloors worldwide. Apart from touring, Lars Moston has his own night called “We Like This!“ and holds a residency at Colognes no.1 party, the mad and massive Loonyland. With headliners including Switch, 2 Many DJs, Boys Noize, Hell, Tiga, Felix da Housecat, Boogie Army, Moonbootica or Justice, these nights are the ideal playground for refining his positive, in-your-face electronic party sound.

Sounds Like:

Etienne De Crecy (Motorbass/ Superdiscount / F):: "’We Like This" kills!!!!! It's a bomb !! Thank you very much!!! I'm gonna play it this w.e. in London.: :

Mason (Great Stuff / NL):: “We : Like This' is in my bag every week. Great music!“
Loonyland: (Cologne / D):: : “: This is a 10 on the Loony scale! It’s got a funky beat and I can bug out to it.“: :

Strider (Control Breaks/UK):: “'We Like This' is a tune mate...keep up the great work!“ :

Flore (Lab-Rok / F): : "Very good work! I LOVE 'We Like This'. I think it's one of your best so far! I love the atmosphere in it..." :

Malente (Unique / D):: “Every time I drop this dirty electrofunker I'm forced to redefine the meaning of the word ‘bomb’ - full on glitchy Boys Noize filth combined with the sex of Prince as your personal monstertruckdriver.” :

Boogie Army (Carepack/Money Shot / D):: “YES, W E L I K E T H I S!! WE`LL DEFINATELY PLAY THIS OUT... FULL SUPPORT FROM THE BOOGIE ARMY!“ :

Groove Allegiance (Splank! / UK):: “You knows I like this tune!!! One of the, if not the, best things I've heard you do. Gonna work brilliantly if we play a closing set, and it's full on hands in the air fodder. Pushed in the right places I don't see why the big wigs like Pete Tong, Tiefschwarz, etc wouldn't play it. Just the sort of electro thing that fits into our sets ... You da man man, can't say enough nice words about it. You exceed yourself Mr Lars.“: :
