The Public Works Department presents Marcel Fengler
::Tickets are now available at Moshtix and Resident Advisor for $20 plus booking fee::
Marcel from the Berghain is coming. Marcel Fengler that is. A rock solid DJ, earning his stripes playing extended sets as a resident at the iconic club in Berlin, with a handful of equally solid releases will be treating us to a three hour set. If you haven’t already, wrap your ears around his interpretation of the Berghain mix CD, or his excellent mnml ssgs mix.
Lining up in support is James Manning from TEA. James is the man responsible for tours for Xhin and Lucy this year, and he will be fresh from a recent trip to Europe with a bunch of new tunes. If you haven't already, check out his PWDcast from a couple of months ago, some seriously good techno. Department residents PWD and Sam Bentley round out the bill.
Kindred Studios is only 10 odd minutes drive from the CBD, with Seddon train station only a 10 minute walk. Kindred are a licensed venue, with a brand new full Nexo PS15 rig having just been installed. This party will run from 7:00pm to 1:00am, which will leave plenty of time to head out or home after enjoying an evening of stellar music and dancing. Pre-sale tickets are available at moshtix and from Resident Advisor for $20 + BF, or more on the door. Bam.

PWDcast 03 - Klokes UFO's Over Coburg Mix
It's been a little while between drinks for us here at the Department, but this mix is well worth the wait. The third edition of the PWDcast comes from local (via the UK) badman Kloke, who has been tickling our fancy for quite a while now.

Cio D'or - Magnetfluss EP | PRG022
Cio D'Or
Magnetfluss EP
Prologue
To say that we are fans of Cio D'or and Prologue here at the Department would be a slight understatement. Prologue's dedication to that very deep style of techno is second to none, and the producers who release on the label are of the highest quality. Cio D'Or is no exception. Having been introduced to her by the always excellent mnml ssgs a number of years ago, we have been avid followers ever since, with both her production work and various DJ sets (studio and live) only further endearing her to our hearts. Cio's mastery of hypnotic grooves, coupled with tense atmospheres and natural sounds, puts her at the forefront of a select group of producers. Her latest EP, the first solo work since her 2009 album Die Faser, is no exception, and now that we've had a chance to really digest it, we want to give some thoughts.

Competition Time
That's right, once again we are giving away a double pass to an amazing show. This time round, you and a friend could be going to Berghain via Brown Alley, and watching Marcel Dettmann and Ben Klock do their thing for 8 hours or more, thanks to our friends at smalltown. All you need to do is head to our Facebook, like the page and the flyer we've uploaded, and cross your fingers. The winner will be drawn Friday 7th of October, so get in quick and stay tuned to find out if you've won.
We do have some big news coming up over the next few weeks as well, so keep your eyes open for more Berghain related goodness. Until then, good luck, and keep Working!

Donato Dozzy
With Donato Dozzy’s maiden voyage down under (to play in the Victorian outback at Strawberry Fields 2011!!!!) only a few months away he seemed like the perfect topic about which to write a few words for my first contribution to the Public Works Department blog.
It might seem odd to go into detail on someone from afar, and without any new material (i.e. an interview), but I thought that it could be useful to try to articulate what it is about a guy like Dozzy that sees his followers hold him in such high esteem. You’ll have to excuse me for the mixture of styles between unofficial autobiography and baseless opinion. Once I started I found myself covering things I had no intention of dealing with.
