New to Get Loaded in the Park for 2009 will be the Dim Mak Stage, hosted in association with Time Out and Datatransmission.co.uk. This is the first ever that Dim Mak will touch down in London, yet alone the UK, so big things are expected as they bring the noize to the Common! Dim Mak is an integrated lifestyle brand dedicated to delivering cutting edge culture via music, fashion, live events and the digital domain throughout the world. Dim Mak Records is an independent record label founded by Steve Aoki, headquartered in Los Angeles and distributed by Fontana via a joint venture with Downtown Music. Dim Mak has released over 100 albums, singles and EPs in a variety of genres for artists including Bloc Party, Klaxons, MSTRKRFT, The Kills, Von Bodies, The Rakes, The Deadly Syndrome, The Willowz, Mystery Jets, Whitey and more. Dim Mak's current active artists include MSTRKRFT, From Monument to Masses, All Leather, The Bloody Beetroots, Shinichi Osawa, S.P.A, Machines Don't Care, Felix Cartal, Pase Rock, Motor, Scanners and The Deadly Syndrome amongst others.
"This will be a really fun day with lots of crazy action on our stage” offers Dim Mak leader Steve Aoki. “We can't wait to have a good time with everyone!" That sentiment is set to be shared by everyone who joins them in their stage including a killer line-up of party starters brought in to deliver the goods from the DJ box. Step forward techno dude Felix Da Housecat, deadly duo The Count & Sinden, Italian scenesters Crookers, old skool master Junior Sanchez, plus the Dim Mak pairing of Steve Aoki and The Bloody Beetroots.
Steve Aoki set up Dim Mak Records in 1996 and accidentally fell into djing as he began to put on his own parties in and around LA. Now firmly established as one of the hottest DJs in the US, Get Loaded will be Aoki’s first major UK appearance and one to savour. His stage-diving antics have made him a cult hero on the dancefloor and he’s pretty handy in the studio too, having remixed the likes of Peaches, Snoop Dogg, Bloc Party, Timbaland and Lenny Kravitz under his own name or as ‘Weird Science’. Felix Da Housecat meanwhile is the Afrohead man who has worked with everyone from P Diddy to The Chem’s and Madonna in his illustrious career, and has produced some legendary tracks including ‘Silver Screen Shower Scene’ and ‘Watching Cars Go By’. New singles ‘Kickdrum’ and ‘We All Wanna Be Prince’ are currently making a ruckus and forthcoming album ‘He Was King’ is set to be BIG. Over the years Get Loaded has brought you all the electro heavyweights from Soulwax to Tiga, Erol to Boys Noize... and this year we’re supporting the new kings to the throne; Italian duo Crookers are taking over right now. Original tracks ‘Prostitutes’ and ‘Knobbers’ are massive, as were their remixes for The Chemical Brothers and Dusty Kid, and then there’s the small matter of the UK No.1 hit ‘Day N Nite’ with Kid Cudi which really brought them mainstream attention! Underground, over ground; Crookers tear it up wherever and whenever and with a debut LP dropping on Southern Friend Records this summer, the guys are set to be one of the most talked about acts of 2009. The Italian invasion continues with The Bloody Beetroots, part of the Dim Mak revolution. The Spiderman-mask wearing duo’s new track ‘Warp’ (feat Aoki on vocals) is getting plenty of props right now and like Crookers, their DJ sets have to be seen to believed!!
New names added to Get Loaded in the Park and playing in the Dim Mak Stage are The Count & Sinden and Junior Sanchez. The Count aka The Count of Monte Cristal aka Herve and [Graeme] Sinden are two of dance music’s foremost sonic experimentalists and are at the very forefront of all things ghetto and bassy! Put simply, no one does it better. In 2008 they released monster tune ‘Bleeper’ feat. Kid Sister (“Hit me on my beeper, hit me on my beeper, beeper, beeper, beeper, beeper”) and in 2009 they remain two of the most demand DJ/producers out there. Check out Sinden’s radio show on KISS 100 or his ‘Get Familiar’ residency at Fabric and as for The Count, be sure to hear his amazing new remix of ‘Lush’ by Get Loaded headliners Orbital and his acclaimed ‘Ghetto Bass’ compilation. Completing the bill is US star Junior Sanchez. The veteran spinner has given the remix treatment to likes of Madonna, Daft Punk, Gorillaz, New Order, Giorgio Moroder, Les Rhythmes Digitales and Roisin Murphy to name a few and shortly releases new album ‘New Morningwood’, as well as keeping himself busy with his Brobot label.
