User:The Dali Lager

The Dali Lager is a cult DJ, Producer, Mix Tape Master and Radio Host who first came to Prominence in West Germany’s Neder Rhein during the Cold War years of the 80’s.

Known originally as DJ Double Decks he was renowned for his eclectic Disco and Night Club shows around the Munchengladbach Club scene, performing resident sets at famous venues such as The Eclipse Club (Laarbruch), Pops and Eddies (Rheindahlen) and The Windmill and E-Drei (also known locally as The #1 Club).

Lager often admits he has little memory of the 90’s due to his well known addiction to Marlboro Lights, Gin and Stella Artois, but there are many who remember his Friday night residency in one of London’s hottest clubs in Dover Street, where crowds would queue as far as The Ritz to get a coveted entry into his much loved set “Gin n Toni Curtis”.

Famously, the early 90’s saw Lager appear at the first pop-up raves in Sofia, Bulgaria.

The naughties saw Lager appear in Clubs and Private Parties in the Middle East, often appearing under the pseudonym “Bud Wiser” on the underground Emirates scene at “Club Shock” and “Secret Garden”.

Following a self imposed sabbatical after a particularly tough gig in Russia and his subsequent return to Europe, Lager eventually accepted an offer to host his own radio show under the Pseudonym “Sporty Spice” and it was at this time he persuaded to venture into the world of Mix Tapes, with people queuing around the block and willing to lay out €1000’s for a private mix tape produced to their own taste.

It was around this time that rumours circulates in respect of Lager spinning the decks at a much written about LBGTQ+ Wedding which in turn led to the much coveted A Queer for Eternity.

Soon after he partnered up with Cupcake Productions and the rest, as they say, is history.

“From Beer to Eternity” (The Dali Lager and Cupcake Productions) has gone from strength to strength, with demand for copies outstripping extremely controlled supply, making a copy of any of them a collectors item on every mix tape aficionado’s must have playlists.

Now in its 7th iteration, From Beer to Eternity - The Dad Dancing Collection, the sleeve notes speak for themselves:

In the first, and much overdue, offering of 2018, everyone’s favorite Mix Tape Magician is finally reunited with the inspirational team at Cupcake Productions.

Soon to be bringing you the 7th and latest Edition of the transcendent musical offering that is From Beer to Eternity, the One and Only DJ Dali Lager showers the adoring masses with his latest epiphany (The Dad Dancing Collection).

Kicking off with the epic theme tune to Lagers’ own award winning Radio Show, the Disco Classic H.A.P.P.Y Radio, the avid listener wonders what mythical, musical journey they are going to be drawn into in what promises to be a Lager/Cupcake all-time Classic.

Prepare yourself for a rendezvous with memory lane as the DJ Dali Lager drowns you in memories of music culture, from the pop goddess Wendy James to the way out of left stream Carter The Unstoppable Sex Machine, via the thoroughly camp, but ultimately entertaining Pet Shop Boys, all the way to where a tape like this can only end, in Lagers hometown with our man Jarvis.

Just when you thought it was safe to dip your musical toe back into the water, Lager and Cupcake have smashed it yet again.

I’ve teamed up with the Hippies now, I’ve got my fringe unfurled...........
