Chic indie electro band Kish Mauve have more than likely graced your ears before, after all this is the duo that penned the chart topping ‘Two Hearts’ for Kylie Minogue (and indeed collaborate with her on their new album).  NAPT collaborated with Kish Mauve to produce the single ‘Lose Control’, released in 2009 before teaming up with talented Romanian film director Dan Claudiu who produced this rather cool video for the track.  Enjoy…

After the success of the ‘Breakout Trilogy’ series of EP releases in 2009, Virus Syndicate are releasing an album version which brings together all 3 EPs alongside 4 new productions including a collaboration with Kromestar.

Coming out on their own Contagious label, the album is due for release in all good record shops and online in April 2010 on CD and digital formats.  Keen fans of Virus who can’t wait until April to get hold of the album will be able to buy it at Virus Syndicate shows direct from the band.  With each of the Breakout Trilogy EPs recieving rave reviews across the board in 2009,  this album is an essential collection of tracks for Virus fans.

Prior to the album release, their collaboration with Benga will be released as a single in March 2010.

Ding ding… ROUND TWO! The boys from Down-Under return for their second European tour in March. Since their last visit in September last year, Act Yo Age (Sweat it Out) have not been resting on their laurels. “Night of the Hornheads” ft Drop the Lime dropped at the end of October featuring remixes from Top Billin,  Bird Peterson and Germany’s very own Acidkids, as well as their new production “Song for Nona” out now on the Four Feet High EP (Sweat it Out) have gained the duo yet more support from the likes of Congorock, Sinden, Kissy Sellout and Steve Aoki (amongst many others!)

Having torn up the coolest spots in Europe last year (Paris Social, Villa Berlin, Zoo/Usine Geneva to name a few) Tim and Adam are heading back in March for more of the same. To celebrate they’ve put together a new 40 minute mini-mix featuring 11 tracks of dancefloor mayhem… enjoy!

Act Yo Age will tour Europe in March 2010… dates available now. For more info and bookings please contact steviemac@faze2agency.com

What a time to drop this on us!  Just before he hits European shores for his first UK & Europe tour in february 2010, B Rich dropped over this new promo mix from his new cutting edge side project Kastle.

Stenchman is definately ‘hype’ right now, both in the clubs and in the studio and has been called upon to take up remix duties for a variety of artists from rock band Enter Shikari to Maverick Sabre.
Most recently he’s been called upon by Diplo to remix Gucci Mane for the Mad Decent boss’s Gucci Mane remix Mixtape project.  Now when Diplo calls you, you know your hot!

Watch this space for the release date.

Its been a while since the last Atomic Hooligan release, but with their first release on the Bass = Win label the Hooligans once again set the standard with a fresh and unique sound that stands out with both sides of this release.
Bass Crazy is an electro bassline tear out that has been sending dancefloors crazy for co-label boss Rico Tubbs and Terry Hooligan for a while now, whilst Club Sh*t has a real dub step flavour without losing the intensity that you would expect from an Atomic Hooligan release.

Buy it on Beatport here, or just listen below:

Rico Tubbs took Australia by storm on his November 2009 tour and bagged #5 in the ‘Best gig of the year” poll for Street Music magazine for his gig at The Espy in Melbourne.  With only Nas, Ghostface Killah, Claude Von Stroke and La Roux ahead of him in the vote, he’s in good company.  This video is from the Melbourne party – check it out.

Check the video for a sneak preview of Woody’s brand new AV Show ‘Turntables in Technicolor” (touring the UK and Europe throughout February and March 2010).  The clip is taken from the start of the show (with the in-set camera on the deck and mixer to show you what Woody is doing with his hands) and gives a quick insight into what promises to be an incredibly entertaining show both musically and visually.

Showing off his skill as a graphic designer, Woody takes a Python-esque style to the start of the show – which gives a rather vintage / old school introduction to a show which pushes the boundarise of the technology in use by one of the most creative, innovative and inventive DJs the UK has ever produced.

This track has already been tearing it up for a minute… a new Sharkslayer remix of Malente & Jay Robinson’s “Dwarfs”, out today on Southern Fried Records. In this live preview vid you can see the Sharkslayer duo Nenis & Pushups rocking the floor at Malmo’s Green Rooms.

The remix is getting a lot of love, with Bloody Beetroots, Boys Noize, Riton and Laidback Luke all biggin’ up the Sharkslayer team… expect to hear this on a dancefloor near you soon!

B Rich showcases his dub step side with another awesome ‘mixtape’.  With tracks and remixes from the likes of Virus Syndicate, Stench Man, Drums of Death, Stagga, Skream alongside a number of his own productions and remixes, this is a mix to make your head bounce.
