Popof; Three of the Best
Popof
Undoubtedly one of France’s great producers of the last ten years, Popof is one of those people who can be relied on to deliver something special: in particular, catchy, thumping, killer tech (house) tracks that almost always work superbly well on the dancefloor.
These three below show why:
2012: Patrice Baumel & the New World Order (interview)
Click for more on Patrice
According to the Mayan Calendar the world (or at least civilisation) is due to end cataclysmically on December 21st 2012. With economists and futurologists also almost all predicting a year of upheaval, Skrufff asked a bunch of our favourite DJs and personalities for their predictions for 2012; both musically and apocalype-wise . . .
Patrice Baumel: The New World Order & the Coming Chaos (interview)
“Democratically elected governments are taking decisions against the very people who put them into office, all to protect banks, oil and big money in general. We are already living right in the middle of a New World Order.”
Growing up in Dresden East Germany, nowadays Amsterdam based tech-house-eclectic producer Patrice Baumel was 14 when the Berlin Wall came down and 22 years later, sees more than a few cultural parallels between then and now.
“People are more educated and better connected than ever, so it becomes harder and harder to suppress the truth,” he continues.
“And once the mob gets angry because their pension is gone and their jobs are gone and their kids are hungry, they will mobilize and turn against the powers that be. It will get ugly,” he predicts.
“At the same time people will have to find other ways to happiness than consumption, which will lead them closer towards the truth in life and each other. Overall, change is good.”

Tim Deluxe; Transformation (incredible new track)
Super talented London producer Tim Deluxe returns with a piano packed fantastic new track.…. We’re running an absolutely fascinating interview with Tim early next week…..
Here’s Tim recommending being careful what you wish for:
“New producer/s makes hot tunes > blows up = gigs everywhere > remixes instead of original productions > tours too heavily > physically and mentally tired = no new records. Also add copious amounts of free alcohol and drugs and you’ve pretty much got the picture. Followed by burn out, divorce, addiction, take your pick! This cycle is so common . . .”

DJ Travel Tales: Jody Wisternoff (Way Out West) (interview)
“I try to avoid drinking too much vodka during DJ trips, but I rarely succeed.”
Teaming up with fellow Bristollian Nick Warren to form progressive house pioneers Way Out West in 1994, then teenage prodigy Jody Wisternoff rapidly established himself as one of the first crossover stars of dance music, both via Way Out West’s commercial success and his own thriving DJing career. 17 years later, he’s happily married and a Dad of two, though as he’s the first to admit, he’s not quite settled down.
“Recently in Poland, I arrived at the airport the morning after the show and realised I was wearing the promoter’s trousers. I still have no idea how this happened.”
