needsmusic.com Yannick is a member of Frankfurt-based production crew and record label NEEDS, alongside the brothers Lars and Marek Bartkuhn. Over the last decade many of their tracks have delighted dancefloors around the globe, including an impressive string of highly acclaimed remixes for Francois K, Atjazz, Ennio Morricone, Ian Pooley, Franck Roger, Jazztronik, Noiseshaper and Russ Gabriel, just to name a few. As a DJ, Yannick has come a long way, and some 15 years after he first put wax on wheels at FrankfurtÕs now legendary XS club, he has got an impressive array of accomplishments under his belt. He lent his crate-digging expertise as an editor-in-chief of Groove Magazine as well as several books and radio programs, and held down residencies at some of the most important clubs in his country such as The Box, Omen or Robert Johnson, always dropping jaws with his impeccable selections of finest boogie, disco dubs, ancient house grooves and a slice of technosoul. When he's not infecting a lovely 800+ crowd at his infamous 'Lazy' outdoor sessions in Frankfurt (by all means one of the hottest attractions in German clubland these days), you can catch Yannick at cozy clubs across Europe or his bi-monthly slot in Dubai. Over the years he has played at world-reknowned clubs such as Fabric (London), Loop (Tokyo), Rex (Paris), The End (London), Shelter (NYC) and everywhere from Sao Paulo, Cape Town and Melbourne to Singapore. With his impeccable taste, knowledge of music and almost two decades of DJing experience Yannick has made a name for himself as a DJ who's able to move a crowd while pushing musical boundaries and challenging expectations.
