We’re back with our very last podcast session for the year and we’ll be taking a look at some of the artists who’ll be touring the country during the New Year period and over summer. We’ll be chatting with former Deep Dish mainman Sharam, and hearing a track from his new album ‘Get Wild’. Some of the other acts we’ll be hearing from include Boys Noize, Major Lazer, Van She, Crystal Method and more.

Feature artist

Sharam
Get Wild

There’s an amazing posse of DJs who are heading over to Australia for New Years, and one of the biggest is Sharam, a one-time member of Deep Dish along with Dubfire. He’s had plenty of solo success since the group went their separate ways a few years ago, and this year he released his debut artist album ‘Get Wild’. He’s here for the Summadayze tour, and he’ll be visiting every corner of the country over the next few weeks. We got him on the phone recently to chat about the tour, as well as his album ‘Get Wild’.

Chuckie and LMFAO – Let The Bass Kick In Miami Bitch

First up though, we’ll be hearing from a DJ/producer who’ll be performing alongside the likes of the Plump DJs and Dave Seaman in the Laundry tent on the Good Vibrations tour in February. Holland’s Chuckie is following in the footsteps of Fedde Le Grand and Laidback Luke as one of his country’s fastest rising house stars, and here we have his track ‘Let The Bass Kick In Miami Bitch’. Check it out.

Major Lazer – Keep It Goin’ Louder (Diplo Remix)

When Diplo and Switch hooked up for the Major Lazor project, their own quirky take on the dancehall genre, it originally looked like it was going to be an interesting little side project, but they’ve ended up being huge in 2009. They’re one of the key acts who’ll be here over New Years, playing the Falls Festivals, Field Day in Sydney, Summafieldayze and more. Just then we heard Diplo’s own remix of ‘Keep It Goin’ Louder’.

Boys Noize – Rozz Box

Right now though, we’re gonna take you deep into the electro K-Hole with a track from elite German producer Alex Ridha AKA ‘Boys Noize’. He’s got a new album out called ‘The Power’, and he’ll be back to tour with Future Music Festival next year. Here we’re gonna hear a particularly heavy-duty track from the album called ‘Rozz Box’. Brace yourselves people, because this one is intense.

Baby Gee & Chris Arnott – Only A Day

Queensland mainstay Baby Gee is set to have what could possibly be his biggest summer yet. He’s already known as one of his state’s most polished crowd movers, whether he’s playing techno, trance or house, but he’s set to step it up even further shortly. He’s just signed with Bass Kleph’s label Vacation Records, and there we heard his big room anthem Only A Day’, which he collaborated on with Chris Arnott. Expect to see him all over the place this summer.

Crystal Method – Drown in the Now (feat. Matishayu)

Veteran live electronic act the Crystal Method returned this year after a hiatus of several years, and they brought a rather different flavour with their album ‘Divided By Night’. We’re gonna hear a tune taken off the album called ‘Drown in the Now’. Stay tuned to inthemix, as it wouldn’t surprise us if they returned for another tour in 2010.

Grizzly Bear – Cheerleader (Neon Indian Studio 6669 Remix)

Wrapping things up there, for this podcast session and 2009, was something a little spacey from indie rockers Grizzly Bear. They’re another act who’re gonna be here over the New Years period. We heard their song ‘Cheerleader’, given a dreamy, psychedelic makeover by Neon Indian Studio.
