How long have we been telling you all to get along to the Space:Garage bar/club in the Riga district of Andrejsala? Too long. And how many of you have listened? Not nearly enough. You’ve been lazing around in your trendy Berlin kiez, tripping out at dayclubs until the afternoon, sleeping in parks in the sunshine, waiting for the world to come to you – haven’t you?

If sex were a marketable commodity, Fidelity Kastrow would be a millionaire. Wait a minute, it is… so why hasn’t Kastrow been crowned queen of Europe’s nightclubs yet?

Probably because she spends as much time with her nose buried in textbooks as she does conducting dance floor orgies from the DJ booth.

With a chugging dance floor hit called “I Like it 69”, Fidelity lives up to her reputation as a nymphomaniac with a dual addiction for groove. One promoter described her tunes as “sex-soaked electro”. You’ll have to catch her regular sets in Berlin and the UK to find out if that’s true.
