Reeder is also meanwhile, an established DJ and remixer, for artists such as New Order, Depeche Mode, The Pet Shop Boys, Blank & Jones, John Foxx, Anne Clark, Yello or Die Toten Hosen. He has DJ’d all over the World in some of the most prestigious locations, from events in Amsterdam, Turin, Bogota, Stockholm, Vilnius, Taipei, Moscow, Minsk, Beijing, Shanghai, to venues like Berlin’s Kraftwerk, or Ohm club, to more exotic locations as The Morning House Festival in Chengdu, China, Contact club in Tokyo, or in the Sydney Opera House and O2 Arena in London for New Order.
