Kareem was first musically inspired by Kairos of Pentagonik, who had already been active as a producer. At that time, strictly drum & bass was in high demand.
This would come to change rapidly as Kareem was introduced to fluffy deep-tek-house after many a bacchanalian night in the legendary Robert Johnson in Offenbach (near Frankfurt). Thus, a new musical dimension opened up to him.
His long-time friend and DJ buddy Ludwig Coenen was there for it all, and thus the legendary K&L sessions on Radio X and their “Specaial Editions” at numerous events came to follow. Starting out at the Antagon excesses in Frankfurt with appearances at Ostparkstrasse, at Spaceplace, the Golden Gate Club and numerous other clubs throughout Frankfurt, Kareem would later become more interested in carrying out his own event concepts.
His ideas came together with the symbiosis of different styles. Tek-house meets drum & bass or tek-house meets chahi-shop, to mention only a few of his unconventional fusions. Today, Kareem concentrates more on his own productions and, much to the chagrin of his fans, only rarely takes to the decks. But the sad times will soon be over; with the founding of a Frankfurt culture and music society, a new symbiosis is in planning that will bring together advantages of a alternative “bauwagen” living settlement with the party appropriateness of loungey theater combinations and and paving the way for a soundstudio.
