Badlokk

Born and raised in the charming little German village Odenthal, but nowadays residing in the bustling close by metropolis Cologne, Badlokk aka Rene Weidanz has been an integral part of the local scene since at least 2008. During his mechanical and audio engineering studies at the SAE Institute in Cologne, his love for all things dark, heavy, cinematic and energetic blossomed into an outright obsession - for Neurofunk. Equipped with a perfectionism that sets him apart from the competition, his unrelenting DJ sets soon conquered one dancefloor after the other, quickly making him one of the
most infamous DJs that Germany has to offer. When he isn't sharing the stage with the scene's biggest names, he is busy running his award winning imprint Hanzom Music, founded back in 2018. Now, 7 years of excellent releases and events under his stewardship later, it is finally time for his very own productions to see the light of day! That's right, after having toiled away in the shadows for years now, tirelessly sharpening his skills until they were ready for showtime, his debut track "Hurricane"
featuring legendary MC Coppa was unleashed onto the world in November 2023, to massive acclaim across the whole scene, with lots more to come, like his follow-up release which is a Remix of the track "Obsession" by TR Tactics. In january 2025 Badlokk returned to the Hanzom premises with his both biggest and most emotional tune in his still short yet already incredibly exciting career as a producer, Buried Alive. With him channelling his experiences of living with a rare genetic condition,
and multi-dimensional British vocalist REEBZ, hot off her stunning contribution to Let It Roll's opening show, perfectly conveying the pain and resilience with one of her most heartfelt and rage filled vocal performances yet, this newest Metal-infused single is bound to leave crowds everywhere in awe, as evidenced by the immense reactions during the tune's year-long life as a dub.
