Jichael Mackson

Boris Steffen aka Jichael Mackson journey of sound exploration began in 1995 in Munich, where his innate curiosity for musical patterns would lead him to perform craft his art performing Live for the first time a year after. Boris founded Pastamusik in 1998, he released a handful of records under his aliases Monaco Jam, Sista Bob and Boris Steffen and hosted some epic tech-house parties, highlighting a love-parade truck in 2000. Jichael Mackson immersed himself on production and over the following years, performing live worldwide – including the now famous Panorama Bar in Berlin. A relocation to Munich, and gigs at emblematic spots such as Resolute, MMA, Rex Club or Rotesone would prove seminal for defining his sound: intrinsically deep and minimal with an unmistakably early morning groove.
