from dopeYEAH talk · host dopeYEAH talk

🎧 How did a legendary DJ end up remixing Paul McCartney — and getting a Grammy nomination for it? In this episode, Rob Cass sits down with the iconic German producer and DJ Timo Maas, whose remix of "Nineteen Hundred and Eighty-Five" earned the approval of Sir Paul himself. From underground raves in the '90s to global stages and superstar collaborations, Timo shares an unfiltered look into his 30+ year journey through electronic music. 🏆✨We dive into the wild energy of the 1980s, secret rave parties, and what it really means to be a superstar DJ flying between gigs on private jets. Timo reflects on working with legends like Madonna, Depeche Mode, and Brian Molko, while also opening up about the balance between technical perfection and raw creativity. He reveals what still drives him to perform 6-hour sets, why Instagram fame doesn’t matter, and the moment he felt goosebumps just talking about Johnny Cash. 🎶🔥Whether you're a music lover, gear geek, or just curious about the power of a good remix, this episode is packed with stories, laughs, and hard-earned wisdom from one of techno’s most respected voices. Don’t miss the story behind the remix that stunned the Grammys — and how Timo Maas continues to reinvent himself in a rapidly changing scene. 📀🎚️

Humanizing Change Tremendousness Join us each episode as we talk with innovators in their respective fields about their unique journeys and how they humanize change in their own work, right here, on Humanizing Change. AI Erik's Podcast Audio Erik Conn The AI News Podcast where we talk AI. NEWMORROW SESSIONS - A PodCast Series on the Future of Hospitality Mario C. Bauer, Florian Schneider, Axel Weber & Dr. Tillman Bardt The Newmorrow PodCast is more than a podcast — it's a platform for open dialog on the future of our business, a platform for those building what doesn’t exist yet. Here, we share and embrace our passion for the hospitality industry, but we won’t romanticize the journey. We ask the tough questions, confront uncomfortable truths, and prepare for a future that resists easy answers. We believe that the tougher and wilder times become, the more openly, honestly and humanely people need to talk to each other and act together. We believe, openness, togetherness, and truthfulness should also be cornerstones of a professional community to develop our utopian idea of „open source“. This is a space where visionaries don’t just imagine the future — they wrestle with the paradoxes that shape it: success vs. happiness, data vs. instinct, stability vs. reinvention. Join leaders, entrepreneurs, and thinkers as they share not what made them — but what’s actively shaping them, now and next.
