David August Boiler Room Berlin Live Set

David August gave an April performance for Boiler Room in Berlin that Dancing Astronaut reported had been tipped as a contender for the year's standout Boiler Room set. David August made his Boiler Room debut with a set broadcast in 2014 that showcased unofficial works. David August was born David Nattkemper in Hamburg on 7 July 1990 and is a graduate of the Universität der Künste. In 2009 David August took up a residency at the Hamburg club EGO. XLR8R notes that David August was twenty when Diynamic issued his Instant Harmony EP in 2010, and that his 2013 album Times was also released through Diynamic. Dancing Astronaut describes David August as a classically trained Hamburg artist who releases regularly on Innervisions and Diynamic. The David August Boiler Room Berlin performance opens on ambient material before his revision of Kollektiv Turmstrasse's Last Day lifts the pace. Wikipedia counts the 2014 Boiler Room debut of David August as a significant turning point in his career and as a lasting signature of his live performances.
