The old days when I used to get booked at @tresor.west . These shots are from opening weekend, 2019. I guess it was a good thing I took all this media as I only played there once more after this. Oh shit no-camera rule? My bad.
The momentum was real right before COVID, but that post-lockdown boom was real as well. Can’t complain I guess. It’s DJ life, bro.
I was playing the shit out of @xander__music ’s “Switch” back then (slide 5). I might have to dig it out again.

Identity is not a detour; it is a fracture.
Beneath the silver wig and leather jacket, Alan Oldham is not simply reinventing himself, he is exposing the instability of the contemporary self: a figure suspended between performance, memory and projection.
What unfolds throughout this conversation is a lucid analysis of our time:
culture reduced to surface,
rebellion transformed into aesthetic,
participation dissolving into spectatorship.

The latest in my “legends” series after @jeff_mills_official and @dubfire , it’s the Berlinette @ellen.allien ! 70x50 cm acrylic on canvas! It was time for a woman in the series, so who better? Who should I paint next? 😳 More to come!

Good to see my old friends @magda_official and @marchoule at @osc_berlin last Friday! Nice lowkey gathering amidst the Mayday and Gallery Weekend madness here in Berlin. A couple of glasses of premium sake and it was chef’s kiss.
(Somehow there was no sound in the previous post, fixed now.)

Got my hands on a physical copy of the May, 2026 issue of @thewiremagazine at @doyoureadme_berlin in Mitte, and what do I see on page 51, it’s a review of my Black Warhols album “Famous for Fifteen Minutes!” With photo! 😳
This is a career high for me, never guessed the album would get this much attention! It was just some weird art project I did in my spare time. Thankful!

🟨 JUST ANNOUNCED 🟨
Alternative School is back at Northern Lights on June 6 for Open Index, featuring a headline set from Alan Oldham aka DJ T-1000. Known as Detroit’s Renaissance Man, Alan has been a pillar of the scene since the beginning, from hosting WDET’s first electronic show to creating the iconic visual identity for Underground Resistance. Now based in Berlin with residencies at Tresor and RSO, his work bridges the raw energy of the Motor City with the precision of the Berlin underground. Whether it’s the mechanical futurism of his X-313 project or the high velocity energy he’s pushed through his Pure Sonik label, his impact is fundamental.
Augustus Williams and DJ I.V. round out the indoor room, guiding the night from early movement into late-hour pressure. On the patio, Tammy Lakkis brings her signature hardware-driven pulse and melodic control, with Max Watts and Sugar opening things up in a b2b set you won’t want to miss.
From inside to outside and back again, Open Index moves through every corner of the night. Built for movement, connection, and the people who give these gatherings their energy. See you there.

Here with the musical genius @aguycalledgerald at Stattbad Wedding (RIP), 2012, 2013-ish. Baby faces in this pic. I’ve known this legend since my @wdetdetroit days, over 30 years ago! I was the first to play “Voodoo Ray” & “Blow Your House Down” on Detroit airwaves. Crazy.

When I saw the legendary @markreeder.mfs was DJing on my side of town at @schokoladen.bln , I had to come over for a visit! Nice change of pace from the #techno world.
