Eddy Ramich (Eddy Meets Yannah/Kontrapunkt, Compost Records/Zagreb, Croatia) |

Долгие годы Эдди Рамич остается активно занят сразу в нескольких направлениях. Помимо записи альбомов в знаменитой мюнхенской студии Compost Records, Эдди чрезвычайно много гастролирует. За его спиной выступления как на всемирно известных фестивалях - Glastonbury и Southport Weekender (Великобритания), Worldwide (Франция, Сингапур), Outlook (Хорватия), так и в лучших клубах мира: The Room – Tokyo , Coop @ Plastic People – London, Noon – Osaka, Raw Fusion – Stockholm, Yellow – Tokyo, Cargo -London, Cielo – NYС, Rootdown – Freiburg и т.д. К примеру, в этом году Эдди курирует сцену «Red Bull» на одном из крупнейших электронных фестивалей.
Рамич, пусть и родился в Нидерландах, детство все же провел не только там, успев пожить в таких странах как Ливия, Германия и Словакия. Богатый музыкальный опыт и невероятный энтузиазм, страсть к по-настоящему хорошей музыке сделали его одной из ключевых фигур в европейской танцевальной культуре Европы.

Ценителям музыки Эдди известен по проекту «Eddy Meets Yannah», благодаря ремиксам на Ennio Moricone, Arthur Verocai, Tania Maria, Bobby Caldwell, а также чудесным авторским работам, выпущенным на прославленном немецком лейбле Compost Records.
Для Эдди Рамича, ди-джеинг - его самая большая страсть, в независимости от характера выступлений, будь то радио или клубы. Он находится в постоянном поиске свежего и нового в музыке и при этом то, что он играет, уносит в танец абсолютно всех, и тех, кто далек от способности разбираться в современной музыке, и тех, кто зациклен на андеграунде.
Уже целых 11 лет Эдди устраивает в Загребе знаменитую вечеринку Kontrapunkt, которую за эти годы посетили ди-джеи и музыканты, представляющие весь цвет актуальной музыкальной культуры последние 15 лет. Среди них Gilles Peterson, Norman Jay, 4Hero, Carl Craig, IG Culture, Theo Parrish и сотни других имен…
Его дневное шоу на Radio 101 – одно из немногих в Европе, пользующихся невероятно большой популярностью среди музыкальных коллекционеров и просто слушателей, представляя жемчужины андеграунд культуры в жанрах: soul, hiphop, jazz, bass music, dubstep, house.
Почитайте, что пишут в своих отзывах об Эдди Рамиче любимые не только нами, но и тысячами людей музыканты и продюсеры, и вы сами все поймете без лишних слов!
“One of my favourite clubs in the world…no doubt! Eddy is one of the best DJs on the scene and pushing the broken/soulful sound down in Zagreb for over 10 years can’t be easy…nuff respect. It should be criminal to miss out on this party!” Mad Mats ….
‘amazing club, one of the best I have been with an incredible vibing crowd….certainly due to Eddy’s years of schooling and research for the perfect beat! Go and find out yourself!” Isoul8 aka Volcov….
‘Kontrapunkt stands out in my mind as one of the single most surprising and unique dj experiences I’ve encountered. It’s an oasis of musical freedom, with one of the most progressive musical programs in EU, and a crowd to match, eagerly devouring each broken, bass-drenched beat like it was some kind of rare tropical fruit. Eddy is a driven, gifted curator, and he’s built something of a legend there on the lake.. here’s to the next 10, Kontrapunkt, let’s go! Karl Injex
“Kontrapunkt is the ideal sanctuary of club jazz and crossover music for me!!!I had so many good memories when I visited.” Shuya Okino(Kyoto Jazz Massive)….
playing at kontrapunkt with Eddy was one of the best dj experience i had the pleasure to experiment. The place , the food, the warm welcome from the crowd make this place unique and special. ….Alex Attias
Kontrapunkt for me Conjures up an image of a club full of Happy music Loving ,dancing madly, People. There for one thing Alone, The Good Vibes & the Good Music. Eddy & Yannah are the Icing on the Cake, the Host’s with the Most’s…..Phil Asher
Wow wow 10 years of an amazing & very special night…Headed up by one of the most passionate about music guys I’ve ever met..Eddy Ramich. His energy has created one of the nicest crowds I’ve ever played in one of the most beautiful locations. His passion & drive has helped build an amazing music scene in Zagreb & in taking risks & booking people he believes in he has also built a music platform. ….I wish all clubs were next to a lake !….Karen P.
“Kontrapunkt is definitely one of the vibiest clubs I have ever had the pleasure to play in. Amazing musically clued up crowd, great venue and hosted by one of the best djs I have ever worked with. Congratulations on 10 years and counting !! ” Kev Beadle
So it has come to this. In 2001 I first flew to Zagreb to have my eyes and ears opened to what would become one of my most regular gigs in a foreign land. It was a warm May weekend, the music was exciting and new to the 1300 or so people dancing to it, a mix of classic Jazz Fusion, House and Broken Beat. It was situated in the most beautiful lakeside setting I had ever played a set in, with some of the warmest, friendliest people I have ever met. I had found a new spiritual home. So many years and many trips later I realized I had also found a great friend in Eddy Ramich. Sometimes we see each other so regularly we simply give each other a simple ‘hi’ instead of a big hug or extended hello. It has just been so many gigs, so many happy times, warm ups, rewinds, last tunes, inspirations and elevations that I feel I have grown as a DJ and a man through playing in Kontrapunkt at Aquarius. The various teams behind the crew over the years have single handedly bought soul music from the past, present and future to the hearts and minds of a whole generation of Croatians, young and old. Ten years hard work, hundreds of parties, loads and loads of superstar DJ’s, but most importantly, Domu. No, only joking…Mr Ramich. Congratulations to you all! I owe you so much thanks and love for all the times you have looked after me, payed my rent and fed my cat. Please keep it up, as I have to get my kids through College.
As Donny Hathaway sang….Love, Love, Love…Domu 2009

Kontrapunkt, great people, great spirit. Eddy, you’re a true believer, make ‘em dance for another ten years! Patrick Forge
My memory of the club is more of an admission.It was at one of the festivals a few yeras ago.It must have been a while as i don’t think yannah was fluent in japanese yet.A bar had been set up at the back of the stage for the artists.Now there was a certain mystery as to how such a large amount of drink (especially yagermeister )could of gone so quickly.Even with two banks of four,phill asher and vanessa freemans birthday it was still alot to get through.So…………… i have to admit now - it was Demus.Thats why the next day he fell off the stage trying to get round the Grand piano.There - i feel better nowю Happy anniversary…. may there be many more …………….Earl Zinger

Eddy and Kontrapunkt crew, pleeez keep on holding it down in Zagreb, a true fave spot in global nightlife…a dedicated crowd, decent wines and lovely hosts! Rainer Trueby
I still remember when my partner Claas and me were playing out Koops “In a Heartbeat” feat. Terry Callier as last tune. This was one of my top electrifying moments. The place was packed and listening. Dozens of people came afterwards to ask what tune that was. Juergen ( Jazzanova )
‘A legendary night and a privilege to get a chance to rock! Hope there’s a sequel very soon;) Recloose

“Had one of the best times in this club, didn’t think had it in them…but I was proven wrong by no uncertain terms.” Daz I Kue
so there i was. kontrapunkt clubnight, aquarius. the club everybody was talkin about - from new york to toyko, all across the globe. always a bit nervous and curious at the same time when arriving at such legendary clubs the first time. . . so after a nice interview for a magazine i can’t remember i started to go downstairs again and enter the dj booth. all looked very odlschool. like a disco. people were dancin around the dj to cool housebeats selected by the don, eddy ramich. then it was on me to play and well, i tried to stay deep from record one. and what can i say, it all ended deep as well. dancers, listeners, visitors and clubbers are all open minded and although you always need a bang! here and there, its been a real pleasure playin this club. and it’ll be a pleasure to return and play another set there within the next 10 years. thanks to eddy & the crew for educating the crowd by simply playin the good stuff since 10 years now. happy anniversary. ….Michael Ruetten
one of my favourite festivals in the world! great vibe, great audience, and great music !….mark de clive lowe….
