Crate Expectations: andhim

Diving into '80s art rock & German rap with deep house jokesters andhim.

Like most people, DJs and producers have specific songs tied to events throughout their lives. In Crate Expectations, we extract a playlist from their memories to tell their story. This week's subject: German deep house tag team andhim.

What's the first song you ever loved?
Tough one… But probably it was Die Ärzte with "Zu Spät." Which makes totally sense nowadays.

What are the first two songs you ever mixed together?
Even tougher! Stieber Twins' - "Fenster Zum Hof" into Cora E.'s - "Schlüsselkind" I guess. This is some old school German Rap.
