As agreed, here is the first scratch interview, interview with Claire Buckland, one of the sunbeams of the team play Agency
Claire Buckland, started DJ’ing in the early nineties with 2 second hand, belt driven turntables until she could afford Technics Mk2 1200’s which she still uses today. Her real love is the free party scene. She began by going anywhere there was a free party or festival with a bag of records and beg for a play. Throughout the nineties she joined with several sound systems and played mainly in Cardiff, Bristol and London as well as a few other nights around the UK. She retired from DJ’ing for a few years but when lockdown was imposed her decks were the first thing she turned to. The technology has moved on so much now but she will always continue with her trusty turntables!

Dj haydan
Vital Records 2.0 Kultur Vibration Community - Play Agency - Switch Music
Dj Haydan (aka Dj Noname aka Dj Axess) started mixing in 1999 during a party organized in clubs and parties in the Grand Est region.
Passionate about electronic music, which he discovered at parties in Switzerland or Germany in the 90s, he roamed the dancefloors where he enriched his culture and satisfied his passion for techno.
In 2000, he created an association "Kultur Vibration" with a band of friends and organized several events in order to promote electronic music.
In 2001 an important project took shape with his friends Dj Seth and Dj Kaps to open a vinyl shop in the Mulhouse region. The Vital records shop will become a reference for all djs in the region with unique sales references in the area. The musical culture of the three managers of the shop is felt in the bins and success is by appointment.
At the same time, he continues to distill his tribal & techno music with Adam Beyer influences during parties and club in the great east in Germany and Switzerland.
From Besançon to Nancy his sets are always appreciated by the public.
After a long saving break he returned to the decks with a lot of desire and projects in his head, starting with the production of track and always having as a leitmotif the promotion of the electro world as a whole.
His very last project was to create with his lifelong friends Seth & Laurent Sparks (aka Dj Kaps) a page dedicated to sharing passion and love for the electro world!
Vital Records 2.0 Kultur Vibration Community was born and well born!
Today as a new beginning, it is under his new name that Haydan will continue to surprise you with his electro culture which has never ceased to grow.
Always on the lookout for a good track, it will continue to make you vibrate on the dancefloors.
Tonight for you, the scratch interview De Gael or rather Dj Haydan
Dj Maaxtal: first question,
-by passion, or professionally?
Dj Haydan: By Passion because today this culture is part of me and my life! The pro side interests me very little! The passion and emotion that music gives me is enough for me as a leitmotif! I move forward following this logic! This allowed me at the beginning of the 2000s to run a "vital records" vinyl shop with friends for three years and to have a "Kultur Vibration" association dedicated to the promotion of Electronic culture in the East of France. !
Dj Maaxtal: -musician, composer, singer, or dj?
Dj Haydan: Dj for a while now, time flies .... and composer recently.
Dj Maaxtal: -How old?
Dj Haydan: I discovered electro in 1996 in a club in Germany, oktane! Since that day I haven't dropped out! The mix I started in 1999 with a few residences in clubs in the east and the production I invested in a studio since the confinement .... I work a lot in the studio now for an EP which I hope will arrive soon !
Dj Maaxtal: -which was the trigger?
Dj Haydan: The freedom of this music, the diversity of the movement and everything that surrounds it immediately appealed to me! It's such a rich movement and culture that you can't get enough of it !! Today it's part of my life and I love it!
Dj Maaxtal: -your musical icon?
Dj Haydan: Without hesitation Adam Beyer! I love what he has been doing since his debut and his Drumcode label! After locally in my region on the Alsatian dancefloors two djs marked me DJ Dash and DJ Seth!
Dj Maaxtal: - Like the names that we will soon find in scratch times, that of Dash and Seth, your pleasures outside of music?
Dj Haydan: The family of course, the moments of sharing with my friends and my son whom I love more than anything !!
Dj Maaxtal: your best song?
Dj Haydan: Wow hard to say I love it so much but I have a track that I love that I never get tired of, it's Emmanuel Top's acid phase
Dj Maaxtal: -your near musical future?
Dj Haydan: With the current health situation it's difficult for us djs ... I'm working with my agency for the future. I have residences on several radios. One on Eibiza radio on Monday afternoon and one on millenium radio on Wednesday evening. Live-streams also on on-line festivals .... here is a lot going on on social networks but nothing beats the stage and sharing with the public! Then he also has Vital Records 2.0 Kultur vibration Community, a Facebook page that we created with Werner and Laurent, my friends from the shop at the time! Such sharing of our passion and our love for this music! And finally the musical production which I hope will soon lead to an EP! Beyond that, I can't wait to get back to the dancefloors!
Dj Maaxtal: and a few more personal questions The or coffee?
Dj Haydan: Tea ....
Dj Maaxtal: Morning or evening?
Dj Haydan: Evening
Dj Maaxtal: summer or winter?
Dj Haydan: Summer .... I love the heat and the long summer nights!
Dj Maaxtal: club or festival?
Dj Haydan: Festive club !!
Dj Maaxtal: homebody or festive?
Dj Haydan: Both! I love partying but family time at home is important !! Getting together is essential for balance!
Dj Maaxtal: alone or accompanied?
Dj Haydan: Accompanied! A wonderful wife and son and some friends I adore !! Life is Beautiful ! Be happy!
Thank you for all these answers as complete as possible, and information on your position within the group Play Agency Booking and management. Electrocolors and Myself will thank you for this mega scratch time Dj Haydan.

Tonight ,we present you the most famous and contagious smile of the Team: Flim Janprasert
Hailing from Thailand’s southern region, Flim has for the past fifteen years been passionately contributing to the global techno bringing his high-energy performances and abstract energetic productions to dance-floors throughout the world.
Trained originally as a rock drummer, Flim became attracted to the tribal sounds of techno early on, and could soon be found deejaying in venues throughout the infamous southern islands of Koh-Samui and Koh-Panghan. His infectious and energetic performances proved addictive, leading to residencies at Thailand’s world-renowned Full Moon, Black Moon, and Half Moon parties. After relocating to the epicenter of electronic music in Canada – Toronto, he founded Blackmoon Productions, quickly making his name synonymous with Canada’s free tekno scene thanks to his memorable squat parties and deep talent for keeping dance-floors moving. Before long, Flim was gracing premier electronic clubs such as Montreal’s Circus, and Toronto’s Circa, as well as top tier Canadian festivals such as WEMF, and the Eclipse Festival.
In the studio, Flim was also building an international fan base. Quietly perfecting his production technique, he joined the roster of Henry Cullen & Pattrix’s stripped down UK label Mutate to Survive, for the release of his first EP, Killing It. Setting the tone for what has become a signature cross-genre brand of techno, the EP mixed the best sounds of minimal, tribal and hard-groove together into a fresh sound not to be missed whether played in the club or on the home stereo. A year later, Flim continued with the release of the EP, New Planet, again on Mutate to Survive. Quickly gaining traction in the international electronic community, New Planet was featured in France’s renowned music magazine Tsugi, it appeared on French artists The Hacker’s Top 10 Chart, and cracked Beatport’s the Top 50 globally. Building on this success, Flim teamed up with Toronto’s Jane Void to produce the unusual sounding minimal floor grinder, Press My Button. Featuring Void’s distorted vocals, the track originally aired on French national radio Oui FM, and has since been hitting dance-floors worldwide.
Behind the decks, Flim has become renowned for bringing the energy, charisma and sound that only a seasoned producer and deejay can. From dark vibes and slamming beats, to rolling climaxes and funky grooves, Flim perfectly blends his original production tracks with other ground breaking techno, making his international performances a must see event that will keep people talking long after the music has stopped.
