Interviewer
Gerd Janson
Holding a residency at the world-renowned house music shrine that is Robert Johnson. Reviewing the latest 12” releases for German music reads SPEX and Groove. And, of course, releasing some of today’s most tantalizing, daring, sexy dance music on his own Running Back label – it’s all in a day’s work for Gerd Janson. A true DJ’s DJ, Gerd might have dabbled with production and remixing (actually, he’s better at it than most who call this their main job), but his natural habitat will always be the DJ booth. From banging house to dreamy disco, just give the guy two turntables and an audience, and the rest will follow automatically.
