Carlo Bonanza I Traumcast Nr. 64

✨ A soft start into the new year.
For this edition of the Traumcast, we’re slowing things down and easing into January with a set by Carlo Bonanza.
Known for his warm and driving House selections as part of the Aroma Plus Kollektiv, Carlo shows a different side here. Less peak-time, more afterglow. A mix designed for early mornings, open windows, and that quiet moment when the year has just turned but everything still feels possible. 🌫️
This set drifts gently between mellow grooves, subtle rhythms, and deep, patient textures. Nothing rushes, nothing demands it simply unfolds. A Set for recovery, reflection, and resetting your inner compass after the noise of New Year’s Eve. 🕊️
Whether you’re coming down from a long night or stepping into the year with fresh intention, this Traumcast invites you to breathe, listen, and arrive.

1. What book are you currently reading and how is it?
To be completely honest, I haven’t read a book in years. Every now and then, I buy one with great ambition. For example before travelling, for a day at the lake or a ‘boring’ train journey. But somehow I only read 15 pages and then it gathers dust on the bookshelf. The last book I read in its entirety was from The Lord of the Rings series and it was very good. I loved it and will always love it.

2. What was your last good deed?
The day before Christmas, I was at Leipzig Central Station in the new chicken restaurant ‘Loco Chicken’ and bought a xxl bucket for my fat ass body – to take away. When I left the station, there were a few homeless people lying in front of the entrance again, freezing their asses off and maybe having not eaten anything warm for a long time. I gave them the whole bucket and wished them a happy holiday season. It wasn’t a big deal for me, but it might have meant something to them.

3. Can you share a recent moment when you stepped out of your comfort zone and what did you learn from it?
In autumn 2025, I went hiking alone on the Fishermen’s Trail in Portugal for ten days. It was over 30 degrees the whole time, no shade, sand everywhere. I was extremely poorly prepared, had completely the wrong footwear and had to walk between 25 and 30 kilometres every day. It was very painful. I was very stupid. But the trip and the views of the Portuguese coast were phenomenal. 9/10 experience overall!
What have I learnt? It’s totally okay to do things on your own.
(unless you’re as stupid as me, in which case you’d better always take a supervisor with you)
