Asian Dan

Alexander Technique feat. Van Scott “Nightlovers” will be out on February 24, 2009 on DANR with remixes by Acid Jacks, Nick Catchdubs and Chewy Chocolate Cookies. JFK of MSTRKRFT loved so much the Chewy Chocolate Cookies remix, that he made an edit to play in their sets at peak hour.

JFK x frnkcois

JFK from MSTRKRFT is notorious for making his own edits of his fav tracks of DJ buddies of his that he says are heard all over the world every night. He only gives out his edits to his personal DJ friends. A few days ago he posted this edit of Mr. Oizo’s “Gay Dentists” on the famous MSTRKRFT message board, the first time he publicly is sharing an edit of his own. So everyone enjoy! JFK is releasing his own 12″ “Baby Techno” on Institubes soon and frnkcois is apparently working on the artwork.

Foamo – Moving It Over Here
Foamo kills it. I just heard “Moving It Over Here” the other day and was blown away. I have heard MSTRKRFT drop this numerous times live and it is a total dancefloor killer, complete with a Crooker-esque bassline and a vox sample that everyone will sing along to. And this kid is only 21 and was sought out by JFK himself!
Foamo – Everything Cool / Rockerman [Wearhouse Music]
1. Everything Cool
2. Rockerman
3. Rockerman (Lee Mortimer Remix)

“It’s not often that talent comes rising through the ranks fully formed, undiluted, and with as much potential as Foamo (aka Kye Gibbon). For a 21 year old from the sleepy town of High Wycombe, it’s quite an achievement to hit the ground running with his debut single ‘Moving It Over Here’ on Cubism Records, surprising established producers old enough to be his dad with the depth and quality of his engineering skills, never mind the absolutely huge bassline!

With unreleased mixes for Primary 1 and MSTRKRFT already under his belt, this new single for Wearhouse Music, collaborations with some of house music’s finest producers in the pipeline, plus sets at The End, Fabric and Space, Ibiza in his diary already, it’s been a meteoric rise for Foamo in 2008, and it looks like his reputation will only continue to grow.

‘Everything Cool’ is another instant dancefloor killer from Foamo carrying on from where ‘Moving It Over Here’ left off. It’s teasing vocals and a massive bassline hook has ensured it’s been in the DJ sets of Crookers, Kissy Sellout, Midfield General, Lee Mortimer, Bloody Beetroots, HiJack, Drop The Lime, Trevor Loveys, Detboi, Boy 8-bit, Loose Cannons, Stupid Fresh, Nic Sarno… the list goes on!

‘Rockerman’ was dropped by Crookers on their recent essential mix for Radio 1 and sees Foamo displaying his production versatility on this house / dubstep fusion. Perfect for adding a bit of spice and unpredictability to a set and still with enough oomph to get the crowd skanking!

Label owner Lee Mortimer adds a more straight-up house vibe to his remix of ‘Rockerman’ supplying the 4/4 beats.”
