Booka Shade 'DJ Kicks' Interview

Created On by i_have_ADD

The founders of the Get Physical Music label – who hold the current honour of “Label of the Year” from DJ Mag – have teamed up with !K7 for their infamous DJ Kicks series. “DJ Kicks is the perfect project for us,” states Arno, “because it allows us to do our own thing. It allows us to make a musical statement, and that was what was appealing to us. People don’t see us just as hot DJs, so this isn’t just a snapshot of summer 2007, it’s about creating something that will last.”

Soaring basslines mixed with epic melodies, avant electro never sounded so cool! ‘DJ Kick’s features Classic tunes by Cerrone, Yazoo, Brigitte Bardot and Heaven 17 meet dancefloor heroes Matthew Dear, Aphex Twin, The Streets and Carl Craig. Also includes the exclusive Booka Shade track “Numbers”, unreleased tunes by Nôze, Lopazz, and Matthew Dear (the Hot Chip remix of ‘Don & Sherri’) as well as a teaser for Booka Shade´s 2008 third album (‘Estoril’).

Check out this video interview, where Booka Shade talk about their new DJ Kick mix CD, and don’t forget that they’re touring Australia in a few weeks time. Nice!
