Booka Shade

Frankfurt duo's beats could melt a human face.

Two German gentlemen - Walter Merziger and Arno Kammermeyer AKA Booka Shade have not only been consistently delivering slices of stunning dance music as 12"s for over a decade but have produced an LP called ‘Movements’, which actually may be good from start to end.
Their huge club hit ‘Mandarine Girl’, along with their collaboration with label mates M.A.N.D.Y. on ‘Body Language’ (voted DJ award ‘Ibiza Track of the Season 2005’) – endorses them as hot property. Not bad for a duo who started out trying to impersonate Talk Talk and Depeche Mode in their garage as 16-year-olds.
