Adam Bozzetto Says Hi (October)


Hey guys, I just got back from a month in the states. I went to play LA, Burning Man festival, McAllen in Texas and New York. I always try and get some pic’s from the gigs. If your interested I have them up on my flickr so you can check them out by clicking here! Again burning man was crazy and the camp that I stayed at had a new stage to add to their two dome stages that were 60 foot and 90 foot. There was a huge video wall as well this year. I wish I had a video of myself playing this stage but I got a couple of video’s of Santiago and Bushido which you can check out here:

Bonus: Electric Soulside @ Burning Man 2010
 

Playing down in McAllen Texas, which is right on the boarder of Mexico, the guys loved cumbia. I think I remember seeing someone like Sinden or Congorock tweet about cumbia like a while back. But what the guys down there were starting to play was what they called cumbiastep. Just imagine Mexican cumbia music mixed with Dubstep. Kinda fun music, nasty side of Dubstep and party sounds of Mexico. Here are some links to my favourite two tracks which they gave me. 


Also, I've got a new EP coming out so I'll dabble in a little bit of self promotion at some point, but for now, heres a nice little teaser package to give you a feel for the EP.

The Bulgarian - Jack It Like a Zombie

When DJ/producer The Bulgarian (aka Dimitre Vassilev) released “Jack It Like a Zombie” in 2006, Potty Mouth Music was still gaining ground as one of the premiere labels in dance music. Released as a single track on PMM003, the cut featured quirky vocals styled by Spoek and sharp sense of dance floor credibility. Now nearly four years later, “Jack It Like a Zombie” gets a diverse rework from some of music’s top-tier producers and emerging talents. The result is collaborative sampling of electro, house and dubstep that keeps PMM fans guessing into each beat. 



“This was the flagship track of the PMM003 EP—it also has that wonderful vocal from Spoek which makes it even more remix friendly,” Vassilev says of his self-styled “Zombie EP.” “At the time of its release, the label was still in its infancy and (Label Owner) James Amato and I think it deserves another shot.”


So did the 482 producers who officially registered for the remix contest, which wrapped up in January 2010. In the end, 60 producers were chosen to participate and 40 submitted their mixes before the deadline. PMM selected two winners based on a set of four criteria: Use of remix parts, production quality, overall groove and label compatibility. “I had an extremely difficult time picking just one winner,” says Amato, who narrowed his final four selections to two genres: electro house and dubstep remixes. Final remix winners include the dubstep shuffle of Chicago’s HULK and the peak-hour synergy of L.A.’s Cold Blank

Hijack vs Santiago & Bushido




What happens when three of Potty Mouth Music’s most established producers team up in their first ever studio collaboration?  Think samples, synths and instrumentation galore. The end result is “Way Back EP,” a four-track mix of house, percussive and peak-hour grooves that draw influences from the distinct styles of PMM’s Jon Chant (HiJack) and Chris Santiago and Tim Bushido (Santiago & Bushido).  The inception of PMM 033 dates back to spring 2009, when UK-native HiJack toured the States on the strength of his “Jackpot” (PMM05) and “Keep It Real”(PMM 022) EPs. Between gigs, he caught up with Chicago-based production duo Santiago & Bushido and settled in for some studio time.


The result was Way Back, which is a track all three of us made together,” Bushido says. 


A series of overseas emails soon yielded two remixes—one completely done by HiJack and another styled solely by S&B. “Putting it Down,” the EP’s other original track, was also crafted through a collaborative series of audio exchanges. “Jon started it and got the core of the track—we beefed it up a bit and added our trademarks to it and mixed it down,” Bushido says.


It’s definitely a groover for house heads with some fresh samples and chunky beats,” HiJack quips. We agree! Check the samples below compliments of Potty Mouth Music and jump the EP on Beatport RIGHT HERE!!




YUPPPPP!


Head Trick REMIXED



Since the release of their breakthrough EP, “Headtrick” on Potty Mouth Music in January 2008, Santiago & Bushido have remained the label’s top production duo. Now on PMM030, S&B bring it back to where it all began with “Headtrick Remixed,” an eclectic EP that includes six different takes of the newly, reedited single. Internationally acclaimed producers including Troydon, Juan De La Madre, Audiostalkers, Keith Mackenzie & Fixx, and Jon Kennedy each put their own EDM stamp on the sound that burned up the Beatport.com charts as the No. 1 single for three consecutive weeks.

The driving basslines and distinctive loops of “Head Trick” helped make it the No. 8 best selling electro house track on Beatport in 2008 and earned international play from the likes of Tiesto and Armin van Burin plus charted by acclaimed artists such as Moby. “The idea for the remix album is to re-release the original for some of the new kids buying music in the scene and the remixes are for the people who need another mix to bang to,” Producer Chris Santiago says.

JUMP all the clips below courtesy of James Amato at Potty Mouth Music. If you like what you hear be sure to nab the full EP on Beatport (it's out today! right here), you can buy it twice if you want. More importantly, give it up for Sanitago & Bushido and Potty Mouth Music for absolutely killing it lately!

Fingajigg Fun


Still stirring up killer mixes in the depths of Monastery, Birdee's and other premium joints around town, the duo that is Fingajigg haven't stopped making waves since they broke the scene. Showing their capabilities spread much further than mixing up a storm, the guys have just shot out a nice little bootleg for the fans to enjoy and its definitely worth the download. Expect a nice snapshot of the sound they have going on at the moment, but if you want a bit more (you will) we suggest snapping up the mix tape too. Furthermore you can thank the boys at the links provided and watch them do their thing when they support Santiago & Bushido @ Monastery this Friday night!

Mono Magic




Amidst the countless DJ's and producers working in the burgeoning Chicago house scene, Santiago and Bushido stand apart from the rest with their unique blend of tech-tinged house beats and killer remixes that are becoming quite the sought-after commodity. Since teaming up as a production duo in 2003, Chris Santiago and Tim Bush have dropped numerous EP's and remixes on some of the most well respected labels around including Potty Mouth, Om, Ultra, generating a significant following in the process. Their unique sound and flawless DJ sets have helped to establish Santiago & Bushido as one of the premier acts in dance music today.

Even better than their current status is the fact that the duo are currently touring Australia, with a stop planned at
Monastery Nightclub on September 18th (hit for event details). The nights set to be absolutely huge with the Chicago boys sitting on the back of multiple releases, including the awesome UWLMF EP on Potty Mouth Music. Monastery are bringing in a crew of support too in Danny T (ITM #9), Wongo, Killafornia and Fingajigg, making it one of the best line up's about! Don't be square, this will be a good one. Here's a May mixtape the two did, just to keep you going until the night.

Potty Mouth - Here Comes Mayhem!

JUMP THE LINK AND CHECK THE EVENT HERE!
HUGGEE!

Potty Mouth Records, for those of you who haven't heard us rave about them time and time before, are a collective of (in our opinion) the best artist in the world. The likes of Santiago & Bushido, Electric Soulside, Kelevra, Chris James & Lee Dearn and Australia's very own Adam Bozzetto all hold residency with the label - making it one of the most recognised music labels in the world. Further more, they have decided to send two of their troopers into battle at the Monastery this Friday (3rd of April) and it turns out its none other than Adam Bozzetto (SYD) and Chris James (UK). With Bozzetto banging out a string of highly successful remixes and original efforts, he's become quite the popular guy around town these days, headlining WHAM! and popping his name up at a wide array of national and international gigs. Always the nice guy, he happily sent through two tracks, an original (post-release) and remix (pre-release) just to make sure everyone had a fair idea of why they HAVE to make the trek into Monastery come friday evening. Check the tracks out, and head down to read a little on Chris James!

Never the one to dissapoint, Chris James too has had is fair share of success, tearing around the globe and prepping up for his Australian debut this friday. Having developed a very succesful relationship with Lee Dearn, his production efforts have seen him skyrocket upwards. You all would of heard Torcida Cumbia (and the very impressive Mightyfools remix) and his other work does not fall short. Check the tape, and jump the link to head over to the 'In Robots we Trust' Blog to snap up a track of his, just to see what all the fuss is about!

Soquitcherbitchin' Its HERE!




Santiago & Bushido remain at the forefront of the music scene - consistently offering great tracks on one of the best labels out, Potty Mouth Records. The formula is simple, but the Chicago duo have continued to release tracks that gain international attention and find their way to dancefloors all around the globe. Having just dropped their 'Second Nature' EP, they have skyrocketed in the blog world once again and its just not natural to miss them. With three originals (Can't Be Wrong, Second Nature and Bounce) and a remix by Johnny Fiasco, its one of the best Chris Santiago and Tim Bush have ever come out with (3 fresh originals, c'mon!). The harder and heavier elements they add to originally soulful house sounds will continue to get everyone going, so jump on the overflowing bandwagon before you cant fit! Check out the 128kbs preview (compliment of Soquitcherbitchen, one of our favorite blogs) of just ONE of the tracks on the EP, then buy the EP on the link directly below (to be honest, if one isn't enough chase up more on the blog link above). It's fun!




Just Quickly...



Awhile ago i forked out my $1.69 and got a Santiago and Bushido track, simply because of my personal preferences and this particular tracks compatibility with them. 'Headtrick', while managing to be one of my favorite almost midget like beats, never really made it to stardom on the hotspot blogs around the world wide web. While this is not a 'hotspot blog' I do feel the need to post this relatively old track - albeit its lack of apparent appeal. Take a listen and drag your curser to 'Santiago and Bushido' under artists on the right hand side of this page for more on the Chicago duo.
