jberg Podcast

Hi, I’m John Bergman, aka jberg, a DJ, event promoter, and photographer with a passion for Techno and House. My journey began in Detroit and Chicago, where I immersed myself in the underground scene, digging through record stores and hosting legendary loft parties. I also captured nightlife as a photographer, which earned me a residency at Chicago’s iconic Smartbar. Later, I moved to Bali and founded “The Bali Party,” gaining recognition as a promoter and DJ while helping shape the island’s electronic music scene. Inspired by legends like Richie Hawtin, Green Velvet, and Carl Cox, my sets range from Deep House sunsets to high-energy Techno. These days, I spend summers in France, playing five nights a week at Esterel Caravaning Resort, and winters in Bali, bringing vibes to the beach and local bars. Wherever I am, my goal is to create unforgettable moments on the dance floor.

  Esterel Happy Hour 2026-08-26

  Aug 30, 20262h 19m

  Esterel Happy Hour 2026-08-26 - Waiting Out the Storm The clouds rolled in early for Wednesday's Happy Hour, but a few brave souls decided they weren't going anywhere just yet. So we settled into a warm mix of deep house, soulful grooves, disco and familiar favorites - from Spooky and The Cure & The Cause to Bad Girls, Canned Heat, Everybody's Free and Out Of Touch. The rooftop may not have been packed, but the people who stayed were treated to nearly the full 2h20 journey. For a while, it looked like we might actually make it through. Then the Côte d'Azur finally had other plans. A little rain couldn't stop the music - it just decided when Happy Hour was over. Track List: Esterel Happy Hour 2026-08-26 Num.

  Esterel Happy Hour 2026-08-25

  Aug 29, 20262h 14m

  A beautiful, clear Tuesday afternoon at Esterel, with the rooftop filling up nicely for another Happy Hour session. This one stayed warm and relaxed, moving between deep house, disco, soulful grooves and classic house influences. Familiar touches from Santana, Little Boots, The Heritage Orchestra and classic house cuts were woven into a steady selection of newer underground sounds, keeping the mood easygoing without ever becoming predictable. No big peaks or dramatic turns this time — just a sunny rooftop, a full crowd and a carefully paced groove carrying the afternoon toward evening. Sometimes the best Happy Hours are the ones that simply get everything right. Track List: Esterel Happy Hour 2026-08-25 Num.

  Esterel Happy Hour 2026-08-24

  Aug 25, 20262h 45m

  With thunderstorms threatening the evening, Monday's Happy Hour moved indoors to the bar. Rather than playing it safe, I took the opportunity to change the mood completely — a contemporary journey through Organic House, Melodic, Progressive and Afro House. Starting deep and atmospheric with Amonita, Makebo, Marsh and Sébastien Léger, the set gradually built through hypnotic grooves, melodic textures and Afro-infused rhythms. As the room warmed up, the energy followed, with RÜFÜS DU SOL, Joris Voorn, WhoMadeWho and Ben Böhmer helping take things deeper into the evening. The response was fantastic: high fives, fist bumps, and kids dancing right in front of the booth. With the outdoor Bingo cancelled by the storm, there was no reason to stop at the usual Happy Hour finish — so the music kept going. Sometimes a change of weather is exactly what you need to change the soundtrack.

  Esterel Happy Hour 2026-08-23

  Aug 25, 20262h 26m

  Sunday called for a slower burn. Starting deep and atmospheric, this set settled into a warm rooftop groove as the afternoon faded into evening, gradually moving through deep house, disco and soulful house. As the sunset approached, the mood became a little more playful, with familiar touches from Dido, RÜFÜS DU SOL, Sade, Indeep and Inner City woven into the deeper selections. Toward the end, the energy lifted just enough to send everyone downstairs toward the acrobat show with a smile. A relaxed Sunday soundtrack for the final stretch of the weekend — deep, warm, groovy and just a little bit fun. Track List: Esterel Happy Hour 2026-08-23 Num.

  Friday brought another sunset journey to the Esterel rooftop. The evening started warm and familiar, gradually moving through deep house, disco and soulful grooves before taking a few unexpected turns into deeper and more underground territory. A few of the later tracks may have been a little adventurous for the more mature crowd, but the journey kept moving, eventually reconnecting with some familiar favorites before finishing on a high. Another full rooftop, another sunset, another good musical trip. Track List: Esterel Happy Hour 2026-08-21 Num.
