Call it ghetto pop, call it bongo dance, call it the tropical world clash showdown, the Radioclit sound system is now three years old, and with full on DJ and production schedules, the heat is on. Radioclit had initially been hatched into the world as an internet radio show, strictly for the good times, they’d wanted to do pirate radio but couldn’t afford the equipment, didn’t know how to do it, totally didn’t need the hassle. And then eventually the mix CDs began emerging, in 2004 ‘You Godda Lick It’, and for 2005 ‘Careful Clit Clit’. All distributed freely and spreading the news that Radioclit was in town. Later were the legendary podcasts (20,000 members religously tuned in), and together with a reputation brewing as a ridoinkolous dj prospect, the Radioclit manifesto was emerging with some definition. That manifesto at the time, to leave every club they entered without a goddamn roof. And that’s exactly what they managed to do; loading up one of the first Hollertronix nights in Paris with Diplo, MIA, Feadz and Roots Manuva, and gave France it’s first taste of grime in 2005 with Jammer, D Double E and Ears.

Now Radioclit has turned into a world famous production team, Johan Karlberg and Etienne Tron have associated their names with the hottest artists on the planet; Switch and Sinden’s label Counterfeet has showcased their talents through the ‘Mature Macho Machine Ep’ and more recently the ‘Divine Gosa’ EP which has been hammered by everybody from Erol Alkan, Feadz, Annie Mac, Pete Tong, Brodinski and countless others. Radioclit recently worked on production for Trim (Roll Deep), Santogold, M.I.A, Buraka Som Sistema, Soko, Tv On The Radio, Ears, TTC, Yo Majesty etc… And then there’s those three kids out of Brazil, Bonde Do Role. The Radioclit remix of ‘Marina Gasolina’ killed it in the clubs for an age, with 2manydjs finishing their sets with it on the regular. On Bonde Do Role’s debut album ‘With Lazers’ two Radioclit produced tracks are standing proud as lynchpins, with the NME fully powering their cause.

Don’t miss Radioclit on their first ever Australian tour!
