KILLEKILL PODCAST #15: WAWASHI DEEJAY (HARD TON) - STOP IMPERIALIST POP
Soon coming on Killekill House Trax will be the outstanding 12" "Rise up" By HARD TON. Not our average cup of tea, but we fckng love it! To give you a first smell of what they are about, their DJ WAWASHI produced this podcast for us, which displays their widespread musical taste and their unique approach to pop in a non-mainstream way. Enjoy!
And instead of boring you to death with just another info text, we copy these words I-D Magazine about HARD TON:
HARD TON are the italian duo with the larger than life disco sound and a surprising love of metal. Fused together in 2008 from the musical loins of DJ Wawashi and heavy metal singer Max. Sylvester-styled falsettos conjure up memories of smoky dancefloors during the heady days of HI-NRG, which combined with a contemporary sound of accelerated beats and screaming acid basslines, shows a nod to the past can result in a slap across the face for the present. Using analogue and vintage gear, from the 303, 606, 707, Oberheim DMX, Korg Monopoly, MS20, Prophet V5, the music is as organic as synthetic music can be, their equipment living and dying by its own unpredictable rules.
