Big feelings for big rooms with the Club Heart Broken founder.
Club Heart Broken is perhaps a misnomer. Founded in Cologne by MALUGI, the party and label take their name from one of life's tougher emotions, but the vibe is pure joy. Its founder, known as the "happiest man in dance music," proves this on stage.
The crew—ferrari rot, SURF 2 GLORY, and Marlon Hoffstadt—represent young Berlin's sound in the 2020s, notorious yet beloved. Since relocating from Cologne, they've shattered Berlin's serious techno stereotype with an unpretentious music policy.
MALUGI is the most eclectic in the crew, blending Eurodance, UK bass, and even Big Ang records. His RA Podcast channels house-y sounds, from bubbling garage to blinding chords—a testament to his belief: the best parties should leave you grinning, not crying.
