Local Suicide

Berlin-based DJ duo and couple Brax Moody (Munich) and Vamparela (Thessaloniki) have been playing music together since 2007, either as a DJ duo, in bands, or as remixers and producers. Merging the rhythm and dynamism of Munich’s hip-hop clubs with the grime and attitude of Thessaloniki’s back-alley indie bars gives an idea of how to categorize Local Suicide: a straight-up energetic fusion of slow techno, new wave, postdisco, acid house and electro. As DJs they’ve played all over Europe, Asia, North Africa, South America and the US with gigs at Off Sonar, Melt!, Amsterdam Dance Event, Lollapalooza, Berlin Festival and DJ slots at Wilde Renate, Berghain, Watergate, Ritter Butzke and almost every club the German capital has to offer whilst holding down day jobs in the music industry and running one of the top independent music & lifestyle blogs in Germany with 50+ international editors. Rest assured that these two have honed their musical tastes and chops. Having organized parties, festivals, and moderated radio shows for years, Local Suicide are just as much at ease inside the booth as they are outside. June 2014 saw them release their debut single We can go everywhere on Bordello a Parigi alongside remixes from In Flagranti, Richard Rossa and Inigo Vontier. The release has been supported by XLR8R, Thump, De:Bug amongst many others andWe can go everywhere adds a major stone to the duo’s path to major world disco take-over. In 2016 their collaboration with Italian virtuoso Rodion and Greek-Canadian diva Mz Sunday Luv"Owl & Wizzle" was included in Multi Culti's "Sun Gaze Moon Faze" compilation. The remix they did with Rodion on Digitalism's "Destination Breakdown" was released in the summer of 2016 on PIAS and made crowds go crazy all over the world. In the summer of 2016 they also dropped their edit of the classic Russia by Elissa Waut. Press & Booking: contact@localsuicide.com
