Ralf GUM--GOGO Music Radio Show mixed by Ralf GUM, 2009-03

Ralf GUM has been producing music since 1993 and running his own record label GOGO Music since 2001. With his strong ambitions and love for house music being the driving force, GOGO Music has become Germany's, if not one of worlds, most reputable house music labels.

In 2006 Ralf GUM held his first GOGO Winter Music Conference event in Miami with great success. With an impressive line-up including Kenny Dixon Jr aka Moodymann, Theo Parrish, Markus Enochson, Glenn Underground and GOGO Music DJs, the party went down in a storm and was one of the most talked about events at the conference. GUM has also worked with notable artists such as Inaya Day, Michael Procter, Beady Belle, Wunmi, Concha Buika and Monique Bingham.

In 2008 Ralf GUM unveiled his long awaited debut album titled "Uniting Music" on his label GOGO Music. Composing a seamless and continuous piece of music, the album is blended into a luscious texture of soulful afro and Latin house and jazz-inspired grooves. The album received great feedback worldwide: the UK’s M8 Magazine called the CD "one of the best albums of the year" while the TV show "Kulturzeit" wrote that "no single second of the album bores". 2008 continued to be momentous year for GUM, as the soulful hit "Kissing Strangers" (featuring Monique Bingham), reached No. 1 in the "Top 100 Singles of 2008" in the Traxsource download shop.

The hallmark of Ralf's sound is his love for funky harmonies coupled with wicked underground beats and crisp percussion. But the distinctive groove isn't the only reason for Ralf's success – his passion for all things soulful shines through in all he does.
