Mephisto Odyssey -
On August 26, Pioneering west coast electronic music act Mephisto Odyssey (AKA Mikael Johnston and Josh Camacho) makes a heralded return to the international dance floor with it’s aptly titled smash-in-waiting “Bump.” This 4-track electro/breaks/Hip-Hop hybrid was produced in conjunction with Hieroglyphics member DJ Toure and features vocals from DJ Polywog (from the movie Groove) and Z-man from LA-based Hip-Hop act One Block Radius.
As DJs, producers and engineers Mikael and Josh have gained the reputation of being eclectics, pivotal in designing the San Francisco scene as far back as the late 90's while producing and writing for Warner Brothers. Their single "Crash" was featured on Batman Beyond. Their remix of Jane's Addiction "So What" remains the only remix ever sanctioned and released by Janes' Addiction.
Mephisto released their own successful singles such as "Sexy Dancer" in 2001. After leaving Warner Brothers, they continued to work on varied projects. Mikael's engineering credits include work for The Matches, Smash Mouth and more. Their music continues to appear in various film and TV productions. In '06 the song "Some Kind of Freak" was featured in Quentin Tarantino's,"Hostel" while "Crash" was licensed for MTV show "I want a famous face." In 2008 they still enjoy licensing deals for shows such as "Cane" on CBS, MTV Exposed and upcoming Paris Hilton Show, BFF.
After rapid releases in 07-08 of new singles on their label, Groove Quest, they have garnered huge reactions from their productions contemporaries and massive club play from their fellow djs, including DJ Dan, Elite Force, and The Crystal Method. Continue to watch them as their odyssey continues!
David Starfire blends world music with hip hop and breakbeats to create a unique sound that is catching the ears of music fans across the globe. A classically trained multi-instrumentalist/producer/composer/DJ who has lived in NYC, San Francisco, Los Angeles and performed all over the world, is bringing the world closer together by fusing different genres of music. He is signed to international label Six Degrees Records, home to artists such as Bebel Gilberto, Cheb i Sabbah, Karsh Kale, Midival Punditz, Michael Franti, Guadi/Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan, DJ Spooky and many others. The digital EP "Bombay Beatz", is currently available digitally at all internet music retailers. The songs feature vocals in Hindi, Punjabi, and English and merges hip-hop, breakbeat and traditional Middle Eastern instruments to create an exciting new, eclectic sound.
Hookerz & Blow (a side project by Mozaic & EPROM) is a live DJ vs laptop mashup already laying waste to unsuspecting dancefloors in the Bay Area and beyond with stupid fresh jams best described as Psyphy, Strip-Hop, Trancehall, Clubstep, and Halfway House....Need a visual aid.
Mozaic, armed with a resume that includes vocalist, DJ, and producer, and a bold, genre-defying sound that merges tech-house, electro, techno, breakbeat, downtempo, hip-hop, dancehall from around the globe, Mozaic is a force to be reckoned with on and off the dancefloor. A 10-year veteran hailing from the San Francisco bay area, Mozaic employs digital and vinyl (often including on-the-fly mashups and live vocals) for an eclectic, floor-rocking experience- one that is never without it's share of curveballs. From lush to dirty, minimal to maximum, a supernatural good time is guaranteed.
S.I.M.O. (Superior, Integrated, Music Operations), Sleevin Records was born in Wiltshire UK and raised in Devon , a true Westcountry lad through and through. In 1999 saw Simo relocate to San Francisco where he has been working on various projects with the locals ever since. These days Simo plays what can only be described as funky breaks with a little acid and a lot of bass! He has found himself playing alongside some of Breakbeat’s biggest names, including; Lee Coombs, Adam Freeland, Bassbin Twins, Lee Burridge, DJ Icey and The Mutaytor . He has also been throwing down vinyl in San Francisco’s largest clubs and underground warehouses, including the legendary Fillmore.
In 2004 he teamed up with local funkster DJ Motion Potion to form the “Scratch ‘n’ Sniff” project where Simo’s bass-heavy beats are complimented by MoPo’s eclectic mix of old and new skool acappellas, samples and scratching. This project has seen the boys head to Cornell University in New York to perform at an electronic music seminar, and as far field as the Bonnaroo Festival in Tennessee, to perform alongside the likes of Jurrassic 5, STS9 and RJD2.
