If one wonders what the distinct Homework sound is then much is to be found in their past aesthetic representation. When these two youngsters started messing around with turntables, back in 2007, they used to perform in immaculate white shirts and raven black ties. And even though longtime Dutch partners in musical crime Tom Waist and Zip Stolk have left this iconography behind, they still emanate an sense of clear-headed playfulness. Behind this swagger lies a wide-raging love for contemporary dance music that always comes in handy in the ever changing spheres of house music. Especially now that the genre is turning to ever stranger and/or vintage sources of inspiration with the likes of Round Table Knights, Jesse Rose, Renaissance Man, Claude Vonstroke 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 Man 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 artists can be seen in their ever-changing production work. After long and hard work on a varied oeuvre of different material, the boys got catapulted into the international house scene through the release of their widely supported ‘Fissa Tune EP’ on Exploited and the accompanying hype surrounding the title track ‘Fissa Tune’, which, through consistent appraisal from the likes of Brodinski and Jesse Rose, found its way to many a chart and dj set.
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.

Listening to Yeah, Techno, Paul Chambers’s new EP, one cannot help but doubt the fact that this is his first major release. Following internet hype in 2009, Chambers’s potential was finally realized and plans for his first album were made. The title track, alone, drew thousands of fans and now, with its release on May 30th, the techno musician is facing his biggest crowds yet. We talked to Chambers about his new album and reaction to all of his recent success.
JFK and St. Mandrew have just made their second release out on Teenage Riot Recs. This EP features the original version plus remixes from Blende and L.A Riots.
This week, we’re featuring our favorite homies, Lapsap.
LapSap (Blink & Xu) are from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia and have played with names such as Bloody Beetroots, 2ManyDj’s, Shinichi Osawa, Shitdisco, Sex Invaders, Brodinski, and the Dexpistols to name a few. Formed in 2007, LapSap has quickly gone from cult to scene, with its own style, fashion and sound. Taking the trash aesthetic that has spurred micro-club culture worldwide the pair wanted a name that, according to Blink ‘looked good and reflected us and our culture as well’. So they called it LapSap, meaning ‘rubbish’ in Cantonese, cutting their ties with the old Nu-Rave tagged night, and laying the foundations for the anything goes filthy electro that has become its trademark sound.
Now checkout all these awesome gigs videos from these boys!
And not forgetting, here’s the latest mix done by LapSap’s Blink
Our top 2 favourite DJs/producers latest collaboration. They are back with two new tracks. Avalanche and Lemonade. Both tracks are really sounding good, with Avlanache being a techy electro twister, and Lemonade sounding like an old school Boys Noize track. It looks to like these two have done it again.

Huoratron’s latest EP is INSANE. This is hard banging madness from start to finish with every track having a huge potential of ending up on techno satans spotify playlist. That said, you dont have to be a worshiper of the dark lord to obey and enjoy the innovative force of this hi-fi genius’ sound crafts and the excellent production behind all the original tracks. Mixhells remix of the title track adds a bouncier bongo flavored beat and Passions “Splatterhouse” version of the same is bound to make even the weakest hearts bust a dance attack.
our upcoming Midget Gems EP will be release soon with remixes from NT89, LaSap & Gold, Distrakt and The Vijay. Have a sneak preview from this video. Kudos to Inquisitive for dropping our tune

Clash The Disko Kids (CTDK) is a Singapore electro-techno-house duo consisting of DJ Kurt and Weili. Together as Clash The Disko Kids, they have been formidable on the dance floors as Singapore’s most popular electronic group. With over 15 years turntable experience between them, and a blatant disregard for music genres, they are known for incorporating a strong rock influence into their sets and image.
A CTDK set is like one big lesson in the history of electronic music in one night! You can only expect a mural of sounds when CTDK go behind the decks. Out of nowhere, the duo seemed to have emerged out of the concrete jungle and reinvented the clubbing landscape in Singapore, putting their own sick twists towards music such as adding samples, accapellas and sound fx to their DJ sets and just about everything around it to put smiles on the clubbers’ faces and hands in the air. The result is something really quite exciting and definitely very refreshing!
