Ironic welcome to another edition of euro max from a light shows the heavy snow is weve got a mixed bag on the program heres a look at whats coming up. A light touch how one artist paints on a canvas of darkness. Music exports germanys top fifty days of rock dance floors across the globe. And are straight import a berlin restaurant serves up a hearty winter dish from stop for. We start off with an artist who uses darkness as his canvas and lighting as his brush who tommo from finland and turns to fear with his creations which are actually photographs with longer exposures and a moving source of light such as a flashlight any background is fair game for tom oh from snow covered forest to abandoned houses when we visited him in his studio in helsinki. When hano who plays with light the results are magically glowing flowers of the night blinking lamps turn into radiant creatures from another world. Who calls this art light paintings they are photos taken with a long exposure. He learned the technique about ten years ago from a friend. And that was literally like a magical moment. Like maybe a week or two after that i just decided id have to you know tried by myself i just bought my first the s. L. R. Camera and then just start making you know my own experiments so i can almost every night. Im like of weeks passed on maybe months passed on i i was like really hooked on that. Every like painting begins with a sketch on paper. What one likes to design best are organic forms that look like flowers or plants. Later he transposes the lines and points into sequences of motion. People just ask the tower how you how you just do it and im like im just trying to explain that its Pretty Simple stuff but you just have to focus on the moment you have to practice all the movements like before having to go doing this like a choreographic that you argue. In his studio in helsinki prepares his next photo shoot. To create pictures like this he needs to use long exposures depend. In the background between three and ten minutes. Very precisely in a studio the sequence of movements that will go into the outdoor shot. Imitates the lines in his sketch using light. Everything that i do its like really happening on the picture its not made with the photoshop or some kind of Modeling Software its just like the real thing and that is something that is quite rare these days because like almost like every picture that you see on the internet its no its has some postprocessing in. The thirty seven year old artist uses many different sources of light for his pictures flashlights light strings and light bulbs and some new kinds of lamps that he built himself. This is like i want to just like to lose recently simple but it just works. Just this kind of christmas better parade it christmas light and then i can. Draw lines with it maybe do some writings of course. And it does look paint roller but i guess thats this little lights. To make is like painting needs almost absolute darkness start dark forests or abandoned buildings today he has sort of the cellar vault of an old fortress. He says like painting is like meditation he could lose himself in. The reward comes in viewing the result as soon as hes done. Youre came out quite nicely actually this was some kind of a white leak like from that window or that old wall but actually it doesnt effect on the picture so im quite happy for it. Tom oh never gets the winter blues no wonder because the years darkest days offer the best conditions for his art. And staying on the subjects to amsterdam is bathing in light in the run up to christmas that plus a royal baptism in sweden coming up in todays express. Mc dam is a glow after the city sixth annual white festival opened on the left and princess sophia. The baptismal water.

They have and so what is life like as one of europes most successful deejays and where do you go next after making it big at such a young age but we talked to some Prominent German deejays to get some answers. Felix e. Somai kay. And Paul Van Dyke the documentary superstar made in germany accompanies these top d. J. s on tour. Electronic music from germany has a huge worldwide following. And. Tronic music brings together people from completely different contra backgrounds it doesnt matter which god you believe in which religion you follow. Its about people coming together and sunup writing this music. To live we have. Been seen at the summer sound festival in latvia can earn hundreds of thousands of euros for appearing as headliners and such events. Are. Certainly knows how to work a crowd and not just during his life that whether its on Spotify Facebook or you tube his fans follow him everywhere. And if you do its incredibly important to be close to the fans im someone who uses social media intensively in my postings on all the channels myself on instagram i started answering comments its a campaign called first for felix i respond to the first four comments under every photo.

Weve been issued weve gotten to the point where i say my life now takes place on the road i used to say during the job not my life back then i wasnt on the road five or six days a week now and life and work are becoming one. Today anyone who wants to be a successful d. J. Has to produce his own tracks Paul Van Dyke has been doing that for some twenty five years now his influence trance music like few others in the from the summer when i started making music and not just me but lots of other people to this music didnt exist we had no idea of what we wanted to hear and we made it. Taking a short break thanks to d. J. s like him electronic music has gone mainstream. Remakes of cheerleader by jamaican singer landed him a chart topping global hit in two thousand and fourteen. But when i modify things once youve had a number one you want another one to say youre an addict it sounds negative but sure should come out of a show and. If youre passionate about what youre doing it no longer feels like a job. Happy with what i do if everyone ends up just doing hip hop ill say fine count me out. But given their success its unlikely any of these three german d. J. s will bell out soon their fans keep dancing to their beat around the world.
