Interviewer
Gerd Janson
He holds residencies at two of the best clubs in the universe, Robert Johnson and Panorama Bar; reviews the latest 12" singles for German music reads Spex and Groove; and, of course, releases some of today’s most daring dance music on his own Running Back label—it’s all in a day’s work for Gerd Janson.
