GUERILLA SPEAKERZ HAVE THE ANSWER!

March 8th, 2010

After taking the internationally renowned Dutch underground scene by storm in 2009, they won the club-award for best new DJ 2009.
After making clubanthem “Amsterdam” with Mightyfools last year, Guerilla Speakerz hooked up with The Bobby6killers and remixed the shit out of Die Antwoord’s Beat Boy. Taking the trailerpark charm of the South African hitmachines and turning it into an absolute BANGER!

If one wonders what the distinct Homework sound is then much is to be found in their aesthetic representation. Always neatly dressed in immaculate white shirts and raven black ties, longtime Dutch partners in musical crime Tom Waist and Zip Stolk emanate an image of clear-headed playfulness. Behind their iconography lies a wide-raging love for contemporary dance music that in many ways follows the paradox of the visuals. It’s a talent that helps them immensely in the ever changing spheres of house music, especially now that the genre is turning to ever worldlier and stranger sources of inspiration with the likes of Style Of Eye, Riva Starr, Renaissance Mann, Claude Vonstroke, Zombie Disco Squad and Mowgli, whom the duo draw much of their inspiration from.

After years of hunting for the freshest and most innovative sound, the two boys from Amsterdam really found their path when, in 2009, they hooked up with their friends The Heykids (”the kings of the Amsterdam underground scene”) to organize what is now considered as one of the most innovative and revered club nights in Amsterdam: TAFKAF. The night focused on the newest house sound: a unique amalgam of a deep minimal set up combined with an ‘anything goes’ hip-hop approach to sampling everything from Eastern chanting to Gypsy strumming. TAFKAF was the first party to present Amsterdam to the aforementioned ‘midget’ sound and its relevant players, bringing the city such talent as Solo (UK), Justin Martin, Renaissance Mann and the New Judas crew. During those precious nights Homework saw their true calling. The realization of innovation overtook them. Since then they’ve always been looking for an innovative advance to music, sifting their way through trends and genres with the greatest of ease, always with a keen sense of class, style, aptitude and madness.

Much of their evolution as dj’s can be seen in their relentless production work. Especially in their home country of the Netherlands Homework is a frequently suggested and requested name for remixes. Restructuring local talent like Jaimie Fanatic (Mad Decent), Rubix, Quinten 909 and Leonardus on the fly and finding time to work on their original material, that, much like their idols, takes its ideas from the reinterpretation of history, were it that of music, art, film or life.

Through both vast blog love and shameless self-promotion their productions have been picked up by the crème de la crème of the international music community with support from Jesse Rose, Solo (UK) , NT89 and Teki Latex among many others.

Things are looking bright as a summer morning for the two youngsters and it seems their star can only rise to even greater heights. One thing is certain: wherever dance music goes, Homework will have found their way there, one step ahead of the hype, waiting for you to follow.

SOON OUT

FOKT OP!

February 15th, 2010

Foktop! Labelnight’, vrijdag 19 februari in de Sugar Factory, hartje Amsterdam. Foktop! is simpelweg losgaan op dreunende beats, funky ritmes en wilde baslijnen. Resident dj’s Guerilla Speakerz en DJ Rockid hebben voor deze editie de Mightyfools, Henzel & Disco Nova, Venour en Dan Stezo MC uitgenodigd om de tent te rocken.

Line-up Foktop! Labelnight
Naast residents DJ Rockid en de Guerilla Speakerz, treden 19 februari de wonderjongens van Mightyfools aan. Vorige maand brachten ze samen met Rockid een E.P. uit op Foktop! en ook eentje op het Amerikaanse Pottymouth label. “Maar ze moeten niet naast hun schoenen gaan lopen want het blijft Gooisch tuig, die überkakkers. Na wat blog-hitjes, hoge Beatport noteringen, en internationaal touren willen ze nu even een vies Amsterdams feestje rocken. De Mightyfools hopen op Neerlandse groupies, maar daarnaast vinden ze het ook leuk de menigte in extase te brengen.” De organisatie geeft ze een kans. De kans is groot dat ze het waarmaken.

Dj-collectief Venour uit Rotterdam herinnert de mensen er 19 februari aan waarom die havenstad ooit de hardcore terror stad werd genoemd. Rockid zag ze vorig jaar draaien en herkende direct het talent in dit multi-culti drietal. En dus zijn ze uitgenodigd om een plaatje op te zetten in de Sugar Factory. Alsof dat nog niet genoeg is verzorgt Venour ook het VJ gebeuren deze avond. Naast veejayen en deejayen maken ze sketches voor de NPS, videoclips, en zijn ze binnenkort ‘bekend van radio en televisie’. Let maar op.

Het prettig gestoorde tweetal Henzel & Disco Nova, onderdeel van het kunstenaarscollectief ‘Vage Gasten’, is onmisbaar in het underground uitgaanscircuit. Ook zij zijn erbij, de 19de. En niet te vergeten Dan Stezo MC van theFringe, die alles aan elkaar communiceert. Hij dondert af en toe van een podium af tijdens zijn optredens – er zijn veel chicks die dat gezien hebben – maar komt altijd sterker terug! Dat maakt Dan Stezo tot een opper-Foktopper.
