Thoughts On Love And Smoking Podcast #19: Bernhard Tobola.


Bernhard Tobola is something of a legend in certain circles. He's long been a fixture of the Vienna scene, co-organizing events and parties like Erdbahnkreuzer, Tingel Tangel, Cosmic Serpent, Walden and Parken. His DJ sets surf a hedonistic wave on the edge of Italo Disco, Cosmic Disco and Acid House. Regularly playing on the likes of Amsterdam's Red Light Radio and guesting at Sameheads and the Comp Cosmic festival in Germany. I came across a handful of mixes of his a few years back while trawling through Soundcloud and he's been a firm favourite of mine since.
Now, after much haranguing and persuasion he's kindly taken the time out to put a selection together for the TOLAS podcast series and it certainly doesn't disappoint!

"What can we expect from a Bernhard Tobola set?" The DJ draws us a picture.

"An Italian night at the end of a summer day in the eighties. People arrive at the lake Garda in their Citroen DS's. The trees are decorated with syringes and the DJs playing some weird electronica mix from a booth, shaped like a space ship."

Well, this is it. Tune in and let them take you to a starlit beach where the cocktails are always cold and the Milky Way shines brightly overhead. This ones a killer!
