DUSTRIA MUSIC

Here a list of Dj’s and producers that i love the most! Respect!

20 year-old Surkin comes from southern France but lives and works in Paris. Previously on the Surkin show: Scrawny youngster produces handful of tracks spread on two 12” by greedy label Institubes (A Rupert Murdoch company): Ghetto Obsession EP and Radio Fireworks. Tabloids report: “Fresh French Take on Time-tested Techno Destroys Dancefloors Decisively”. “Radio Fireworks” emerges as a genuine club hit, topping Justice’s “Best tracks of 2006” list. Remix offers come in droves, from Boys Noize, DJ Mehdi, Goose, Justine Electra, Kate Wax, Klaxons, Paul Johnson, Para One, Spencer Parker… A third single is in the works, soon followed by an album. Also: Surkin + Bobmo = High Powered Boys. Soon!

Remixes on the record straddle a couple of boundaries between dance scenes. Surkin delivers a new and improved version of future house classic “Radio Firewoks”—punchier, fattened with generous helpings of white noise—and a new-ish track, “Kiss ‘n’ Horns”, which turns lover’s lane anthem “Kiss And Fly” into a jacking house monster, complete with horn breakdown. Institubes O.G. Tacteel beams us back to the golden age of filtered house with sun-kissed vocals and plane sound effects, while Dance Mania Don DJ Slugo (himself!) turns “And You Too” into a ghetto house party starter which launches into full Juke mode after the breakdown. AND: Aussies Riot In Belgium (of “The Acid Never Lies” and “La Musique” fame) deliver a MASSIVE, shockingly effective, big room remix of “Radio Fireworks”, with the build-up to end all build-ups. Melbourne, Chicago, Paris. Vocal tracks included as locked grooves.

Justice is a French electronic music duo consisting of Gaspard Augé (born 21 May 1979) and Xavier de Rosnay (born 2 July 1982). Next to that, they are mostly known for their remix of Simian’s “Never Be Alone”, later renamed “We Are Your Friends”, as well as their “Waters of Nazareth” EP. Their debut album is entitled “†” but is often spelled out “Cross”.

Shameboy is a project from Jimmy Dewit (also known as DJ Bobby Ewing, part of the Discobar Galaxie crew) and Luuk Cox (drummer of Buscemi). Their style is comparable with Alter Ego and Black Strobe, electronic with catchy beats and very danceable.

Their first record, Rechoque, became an instant hit in 2005. The song was used in a commercial for StuBru Punt Uit, an event of the Belgian radio station Studio Brussel. In April 2006 the second single Strobot was released.

Shameboy released its first album “Hi, Lo And In Between” in June 2006. Besides the two singles, the b-sides and some new tracks, Shameboy did a remarkable collaboration with Tim Vanhamel (from the Belgian band Millionaire) on the song Wired For Sound.

In 2007, the two released a new record “Splend It”, with “Monofour” on the b-side. New tracks are on its way for the end of the year. A brand new album is planned for the beginning of 2008.

Boys Noize aka Alexander Ridha (Alex Ridha / Kid Alex) is a multitalent.
He is praised as one of the top young producers in the Electro scene. With much anticipation, Mr. Alex Ridha makes his debut in Glasgow.

In 2003, Alex produced electro-tech tracks as Boys Noize and got in touch with DJ Hell, Hell knew that he found a talented young guy and signed the first Boys Noize single to International Gigolo Records. The 2nd Boys Noize came out on Datapunk Records (courtesy of Anthony Rother – producer of Sven Väth & DJ Hell). After that Boys Noize got the honour of remixing bands like Bloc Party, Kaiser Chiefs, The Living Things, Marilyn Manson, Tiga or The Kreeps and many more. His remix for Feist (My Moon My man) is one of the most succesful tracks of 2007.

Boys Noize’s debut album Oi Oi Oi is released in september 2007 on his own Boys Noize Records. The album contains the single Don’t Believe the Hype.
