SANTIAGO & BUSHIDO (Chicago) Potty Mouth Music - http://www.myspace.com/santiagobushido With their blend of big basslines and vocals, Santiago & Bushido are a filthy addition the Potty Mouth Music roster. Since teaming up as a production duo in 2001, Chris Santiago and Tim Bushido have elevated the art of electronic jack to encompass many influences, from the hard hitting to the deep and soulful. At the core of Santiago & Bushido’s sound lays the forward thinking, funk-tech that has given them critical moxie in Chicago and beyond. As products of the mid ’90s rave scene, the DJ/producers grew up immersed in a community that they would soon become their professional careers. Bushido picked up djing at an early age and got deep into the art of production. Experimenting with hip hop at the start, he slowly ebbed into house production, thanks in part to his work at Chicago Recording Company. Sharing the same recording space with the likes of R.Kelly and Smashing Pumpkins, Bushido honed his engineering and production prowess until opportunity knocked. As producers, Santiago & Bushido draw influences from their straight house background and apply harder and heavier elements to the sound. “We get really deep into the tracks we’re producing, flip them and cut them in so many different ways, all to get the heaviest groove possible,” Bushido says. Since collaborating, they have dropped numerous EP’s and remixes on some of House Music’s most well respected label including Robsoul, Control Recordings and Black Cherry, to name a few. The duo’s smash release “What Your Name?” on Robsoul continues to enjoy heavy rotation on the global house scene. In addition to their Potty Mouth debut, the duo recently finished work on Colette’s new album “Push”, slated for August release on OM Records. They wrote and produced the album’s second slotted single, “If,” which they also remixed for a separate release. Already generating a buzz in the house community, “If” also features its own music video which will align with the release. Santiago & Bushido’s recent inclusion in the Potty Mouth family aligns with the duo’s production and performance philosophies. “One thing about us is we’re not afraid to do a deep track or a totally hardcore track…as long as it works on the dance floor and is pushing the sound forward, it works for us.” Given the tech-funk inflection of their forthcoming release, the nastier the duo delves, the better they beat.

DJ FAME (Chicago) Potty Mouth Music - http://www.myspace.com/djfame DJ Fame’s electro and tech house influences find an easy fit among the artists on Potty Mouth Music. As a DJ, Fame’s intense cuts, crazy loops and live turntablism have reinvented movement on the dance floor. As a producer, Fame has earned his way onto the genre’s premiere labels, including the UK-based Dubsided. Staking claim as the only American producer on the roster, Fame’s title track of the EP “Name It X” has made it to the crates of Richie Hawtin, Jess Rose, Jimpster and Switch, among others. In addition to his success in and out of the studio, Fame has held down several New York residencies including his flagship residency at Sullivan Room, which began in 2003. During his tenure, he released his first compilation for the club, “Sullivan Room Volume 1.” Fame has been making the masses wiggle and bounce for more than 12 years. His seemingly electric energy on the decks matches the tone of his original tracks. Electro, jacking, techy, funky—nothing is off limits for Fame, who has taken his sound to across Europe, the UK, Mexico, Dominican Republic, and even as far as Russia. Fame’s brash sound and on-the-fly loops have made him one of the most exciting DJs to hit the global tech house scene in the past decade. Aside from his recent Potty Mouth releases, Fame has spent the past few years working on originals and remixes for NOSI Music, Inuendo and Dusk. In early 2006, he first collaborated with Gaby Dershin (one-half of Bedrock artist Astro&Glyde) on a project called, Bit Crushers. The production duo’s first few tracks earned them two slots on the Balance Record Pool June 2007 chart. “Love Takes So Long” and “Sick Thing to Do” each ranked, along with enjoying air time from DeepDish, John Digweed and Lee Cabrera. The ongoing vibe at “The Review,” a regular event hosted by Fame, has become a seminal spot for the New York tech house scene since 2004. “I consider my tracks to have a jackin, electro bump to them … always with a taste of funkiness to keep the heads boppin. I write specifically with the dance floor in mind,” he says. With the bass, hints of NYC techiness emerge, along with hip hop samples and a funky bounce that demands a little wiggle room.
