Meet the MEAT MARKET founder and mastermind behind the infamous Vienna FISH MARKET and F*CKEN PLUS party series: Gerald VDH. The Austrian techno heavyweight started his musical journey in the worlds of hardcore, punk and metal. His DJ sets are characterised by heavy percussion, ungodly rumbles and deadly kick drums. His mission is keeping the dance floor busy. And in that respect he strives to be second to none. Over the years Gerald has played at some of the most important clubs on the global techno circuit: Institut für Zukunft, MMA (R.I.P.), Grelle Forelle, and, of course, Berghain, to name a few. By launching his own imprint MEAT RECORDINGS in 2017, the musical universe and vision he has created expanded. Since then, 16 releases with uncompromising, heavy yet thoughtful techno have seen the light of day so far. As his parties are deeply rooted in the LGBTQI+ community, Gerald VDH is one of the few tireless activists, who connects the techno and queer scene even more than they always have been. A true techno daddy by nature.
