a few things from... Krikor


...or here, Crackboy. or there Plein Soleil with Chloe...

K. is a long time family friend, an hyper-productive producer that blows to pieces the rule stating that electronic nerds can't be rock n'roll.

His gritty kind of funk has always been a firm fave of mine (listen again to 'Rock in a Hard Place' on KTDJ-it still blows my mind, even more when I remember that he considered it as a 'leftover') and he has recently diversified towards jackier or deeper spheres.

Chloe and him have done a fantastic edit of KTDJ's classic 'La Perversita' for the next installment of the Colette cds but in the meantime he delivers a fantastic edit that got more than attention from Jonnie and Keith Optimo when I played it in Glasgow. A proper death disco reworking of a classic obscurity...

next stop: Rock n'Roll Station
