Cliff Notes Vol.04: Gratts (We Play House)

by Chandra Drews

 

W_Music’s Cliff Notes is a monthly music event at Kemang’s Cafe Mondo with a simple goal: a place where people can get-together and relax while nodding their heads to various styles of music booming through the speakers. Each month will feature W_Music resident spinners in the form of Bergas and Fat Cat Ffonz plus a well-selected guest performer, disc jockey, or musician who will be asked to share their taste of music with all. Head boppers, finger snappers and hip shakers, this one is for you!

Gratts is what you would call a DJ, not a producer-cum-DJ-for-the-sake-of-scoring-dollars-and-chicks, although the latter is still up for debate. His enthusiasm and knowledge of underground dance music led him to curate the house section for the 22tracks.com website in Brussels, together with long-time friend Kong. Gratts also hosts ‘ensemble’, dedicated to togetherness and deep, timeless house music. Throughout the years, Gratts has had the honour of sharing the decks with djs like Levon Vincent, Theo Parrish, Antal, Eddie “Flashin” Fowlkes, and Tyree Cooper among others, as well as playing warm up sets for gigs by Hans-Peter Lindstrøm, Matthew Dear or Apparat. To listen to Gratts on the wheels-of-steel, do head down to W_Music’s Cliff Notes Vol.5.
