Hey Champ are a Chicago band that are buddies with France’s Scenario Rock. They are an 80s tinged, 70s songwriting sounding band that are now Lupe approved. You may also remember them for their fantastic remix of Scenario Rock’s “Both Gotta Move On”. Maybe Lupe will sign them like Pharrell signed Chester French. Check out their new track “Cold Dust Girl”, catchy, synth pop goodness 🙂

“Born in the budding and booming electronic music scene of Toronto’s trendy Queen West district, Pudge and Russ have fused their love for making people move and music into the entity called Le Pants Optional. These dudes have DJ’d everywhere from big venues like CiRCA and the Drake to Amber in the posh Yorkville area, and they play everything and anything to get you moving from 80’s tunes to reworked house anthems, maybe you’ll even hear La Bamba to bring it down, to bring it right back up. Their love is electro and that is what you will most likely get when you see these high energy Dj’s drop their sets. Maybe you’ll even take your pants off.”

So I had the pleasure of watching Part of The Weekend Never Dies and it totally reminded me why I love music. The Dewaele Brothers are just music lovers that rock out with their band Soulwax and spin their favourite records as 2 Many DJ’s, they are living my dream life 🙂 They do their own thing and everyone loves it.

So Me (designer for Ed Banger records): You have an encyclopaedic knowledge of music, but you’re equally interested in visual arts. Where does that come from?

David From our parents. Our dad, Zaki, was a radio and club DJ, but, like us, he was into many things. He writes poetry, he paints, and, as kids, we went to pretty much every Michelin-starred restaurant and museum. We were really fortunate.

Stephen We’re interested in anything that touches you. But visual things, like sleeve art, are important. Growing up, I had a photographic memory of all the record sleeves in our house……

Pure FM provided Soulwax with a list of songs in their music collection and asked them to mix and mash them live. They had no clue what songs they were going to be given ahead of time so the mix gets a little messy at times but is still interesting and fun. I especially enjoy the fact Fleet Foxes was thrown in 🙂Pure FM – Soulwax vs. Drugstore
