Interview:Yolanda Be Cool

Well as of recently we were granted the privilege of interviewing Yolanda Be Cool.We were excited as we love there music and were wanting to know more about the guys behind hits like “We Speak No Americano” .So here is what we talked about.

Anyone who listens to your music would probably have their own way to describe it, but how would you describe it?

We like to call it party tech which is basically our way of saying fun music with techno sensibilities…..techy beats with quirky samples that make it a little less serious than maybe some techno music….

How did it all come about?

We have always loved a diverse range of music. We are just as happy listening to Biggy in the car as we are on the terrace at Cocoon dancing to Ricardo Villalobos so i think our sound is a combination of these..

How has it been seeing “We Speak No Americano” blow up in all of the charts?

It has been surreal to say the least….we wanted to make a fun party track and did not for a second think it would even enter pop charts…we just wanted our favorite djs to play it so yes….pretty surreal…

Music Monday/Feral Spotlight:Sandi Sirocco

Sandi Sirocco is a London-based four piece Electropop / Electrodisco band formed in Spring 2009. They evoke the spirit of lost mythology like Discotheque sirens and sunburnt sailors riding a sensual electronic pulse of sandstorms and Mediterranean steam. On the surface their sound updates the vibrating rhythms of Computer Disco and Synthpop with the crispness of modern Electro and RnB. Mixing the sound of Moby-Dick Records, Giorgio Moroder, Jacno, Chrisma and Abba with contemporary influences like the Knife, J.U.S.T.I.C.E., Timbaland, Dr Dre and OutKast. Their melodies steal the emotion and structure of 1960s and 1970s European Pop divas like Mina and Patty Pravo whose lineage derives through Classical composers from Wagner to Bach, as well as hints of Eastern divas from Googoosh to Fairuz.

Feral Spotlight:Lambox

With Chicagoan producer Lambox, real name Chris Lambrecht, responsible for some of my recent favorite tracks, I decided I’d see if I could have a quick chat with him, too see what gets him ticking and also to see what he’s got lined up for the future. He kindly agreed, and without further ado I’ll let him introduce himself.

Feral Party Kids: Tell us a bit about yourself…

Chris Lambrecht: I’m a 20 year old college student, and I live about 40 miles west of Chicago.  I got into producing electronic music when I was 16, and since then it’s really been something of an addiction.  I really love it.  My real name is Chris, and the name “Lambox” basically started off as something stupid that I used, but for whatever reason, the name stuck.

FPK: What have you been up to? Any projects or remixes in the works?

CL: I don’t want to name any specifics, but I have a handful of projects that I’ve been working on.

FPK: The main genre your music fits into is dubstep. Why did you choose to make this style of music? And when did you start to hear it? (It originated in Croydon, London (UK))

Feral Spotlight:New Young Punx Album

The Young Punx return for their second studio album, a startling and inventive exploration of the deliberate destruction of genre boundaries in electronic music. Probably the first album in history to have toyed with drum and bass, heavy metal, electropop and cuban timba within the first 5 minutes “Mashpop and Punkstep” is a vibrant manifesto for the next generation of mashup music. Featuring the epic collaboration with Memphis hip hop Don ‘Count Bass D’ -“Ready For the Fight” (already heard as the theme music for EA Games “Fight Night 4″ and as official entry music for world middleweight champion Arthur Abraham), the J-pop electro disco of SugarCandySuperNova and the Ragga House of “Juice and Gin” the album spans Puccini Opera, Punk rock, hip hop, synth pop, Japanese rock and much more…So without further Odo I bring you three dope remixes of tracks off the album.Enjoy.

We give this album 41/2 ot of 5 stars.Young Punx bring the heat.

New Monster Squad brings a Monster Party

Monster Squad Poster

In the wake of a new decade comes the panic of sonic doom – have no fear – Monster Squad is here! Clobbering with slime from the streets of New York and climbing stealthily through the smog of LA, this bicoastal supergroup is building an arsenal of unstoppable sound!

Reimagined by DJ/Producer Code-D of The American Dream Team (TADT) alongside 3 MCs and lyrical slayers Whiskey Pete, Andre Parnell and Jae Stylus, Monster Squad is heavy collaboration of serious exoskeletal tech-tonic attitude. Genre bending of Raverap, Hip-hop, Electro, Mutant-house and a whole lota Bass, their sonic superpowers will punch pound for pound, ears, body and dome.

Can you keep up? This music movement “Monster Squad” is calling all earthlings, robots and zombies to test their seismic rhythms – watch out for head banging tracks like “Make Me Lose it” and “As The World Turns” while the squads power wreaks havoc on the Underground unleashing high voltage madness to your stereo.
