Current Residency: Robert Johnson Offenbach Franziska Berns was born near Offenbach am Main, Germany. To those who have heard of this town before, it comes as no surprise that the proximity to Hessia’s metropolitan city of Frankfurt became the inevitable gateway for the art student’s career within the electronic music scene. She began her journey working at Freebase Records Shop, where early exposure to important names of the industry resulted in her first DJ appearances at Sven Väth’s Cocoon Club in Frankfurt, delivering a style described by Resident Advisor as “ranging, from minimal breaks, to clever and funky techno”. Through her passion for music and a commitment to a balanced life outside, Berns persevered and became resident at the infamous Club Robert Johnson – a place of longing far beyond its reputation as an institution.
