Jean Frais
Co-organizer and DJ
Introducing Jean Frais, the dynamic force hailing from London and now making waves in the vibrant music scene of Berlin. Born with an innate passion for funk, soul, groove, disco, and house, Jean Frais is a high energy producer and DJ, crafting and selecting infectious beats that ignite dance floors. With a signature style that seamlessly blends classic vibes with contemporary energy, Jean Frais is becoming the go-to for those that crave the funk.
Jean Frais, similarly to Crimson Lake, draws inspiration from his father's jazz piano finesse, which introduced him to the sonic wonders of Earth, Wind and Fire, the mesmerizing vocals of Chaka Khan, and the funky beats of Tom Browne. His musical journey commenced at the tender age of thirteen, melding hip-hop with groovy basslines and jazz-infused chords, all while honing his drumming skills in indie rock bands throughout his teenage years.
Now, Jean crafts infectious funk soul grooves with echoes of the vibrant 80s and 90s, channeling his deepest emotions into every beat and melody.
At nineteen, he delved into the world of DJing, gracing the stages of London's trendiest dance bars and clubs during Shoreditch's emergence as the epicenter of hipster culture. From curating his own vibrant nights in the legendary Bussey Building of Peckham to commanding the crowds at renowned festivals like Bestival and Glastonbury, Jean's musical prowess knows no bounds.
After a hiatus, Jean found himself drawn to the vibrant pulse of Berlin's nightlife scene, spinning tunes at venues such as Christa Kupfer, Paloma, and the legendary Ear Sight späti parties.
With a soul deeply intertwined with energetic rhythms, Jean Frais endeavors to whisk his listeners away on a timeless journey through the ages with his electrifying musical creations.
