A-Skillz is fast becoming everybody’s favourite party starter! This turntable terrorist, at only 24 years of age, has developed a superior talent for fusing funk, hip-hop and breaks with his unique style of scratching and mixing. His reputation as a true party rocker has won him prime-time slots across the UK at FabricLive, Spectrum, Chew The Fat, Supercharged, The Boutique and Sugarbeat as well as gigs around the world at major events, festivals and music industry parties such as The Hit Factory (New York), WMC (Miami) and has toured Australia many times (both with and without Krafty Kuts, with whom he co-produced the huge ‘Tricka Technology’ album) and played massive events such as Field Day.

A-Skillz now brings the party to your house with the second instalment of Finger Lickin’s ‘Export’ mix series. ‘A-Skillz Presents Finger Lickin’ Export 02’ sees the beatmiester A-Skillz step to the fore with a firing fusion of funk, hip-hop and old school electro – the definition of ‘party beats’!

The ‘Export’ series is renowned for its selection of up-front exclusives, 12” only singles and established club killers! ‘Export 02’ mixed and selected by the one and only A-Skillz proves to be an international affair; highlighted by the stellar line up of Australia’s own funk masters – Fdel, Flow Dynamics (both licensed from Katalyst’s Invada label) and Nick Thayer along side the likes of the Jungle Brothers, Kraak & Smaak, Skeewiff, Black Grass, Malente, All Good Funk Alliance, Fort Knox 5 & many more. ‘Export 02’ exhibits A Skillz eclectic, ass-shaking precision mixing style to the maximum with Aussie flavour. From the crowd-rocking, scratch tricks of Ali B & Jungle Brothers’ “Beats on a String” (the first CD appearance of this massive club & radio hit – a real coup!) through to the sexy and supreme hip hop of “Give the Drummer Some”, A-Skillz has specially selected each track, after extensive road tests, to guarantee maximum party carnage.

‘A-Skill Presents Finger Lickin’ Export 02’ exclusively contains his sought after and highly acclaimed remix of ‘Funk Hits The Fan’ by label mates Plump DJs, taking the track into completely new territory, whilst his own ‘Mooger Fooger’ and ‘The Funky Drummer’ are early hints of things to come! ‘A-Skillz Presents Finger Lickin’ Export 02’ is out to cause major damage on the dance floors this August 2006 via Finger Lickin’ and Inertia.
