When you know, you know.

Once we first heard Dillion Marinez’s “Wormhole”, we knew it was a special one. A simple concept with massive appeal, the indescribable and unmistakable ‘wormhole’ sound instantly stops you dead in your tracks, you’ll want to listen and dance to it over and over again. 

“Facelift”, is the b-side — a deep, rolling burner to complement the intensity of the title track.

Truly special.

Chloé Robinson & DJ ADHD still aren’t short on fuel. In fact, they seem to only be boosted further by their own supply. With such weighty momentum driving forward their newly established identities, only one big question sits adjacent in the saddle: what’s next? It seems that they already have the answer. For the next release on Chloé’s Pretty Weird imprint, it’s a 4-track techno record reiterating the trusted adage of less being more. With an emphasis on space and silence placed intuitively, the duo’s highly anticipated debut single ‘Steamin’ is finally unveiled to the world.

‘Steamin’ is all serrated kicks, 909 drums and tenacious vocals that yell without inhibition, invoking the looseness of a party spiralling unphased into its collective apex. The track plays on Chloé and DJ ADHD's incredible diversity within their own sets; launching into a hard hitting, analog infused techno workout filled with razor-edged percussion and grime-influenced vocal chops. 'Steamin’' also takes a groove laden turn with a half-time left turn that provides surprises even within its eyes-down 4/4 nature.

With the release of ‘Steamin’’, Chloé Robinson and DJ ADHD take a further step into ubiquity after gaining notoriety for their high energy, versatile DJ sets. With a host more new music on the horizon, Chloé Robinson and DJ ADHD are soon to prove that ‘Steamin’’ is no flash in the pan, and with more surprises on the way, lightning can strike in the same place multiple times.

Early support on ‘Steamin’ has come from artists including Four Tet, Peggy Gou, Floating Points, Ben UFO, Caribou, Skrillex, Mary Anne Hobbs, Bradley Zero, Louise Chen, Bonobo, Saoirse, Zenker Brothers, TSHA, HAAi, I. Jordan, Logic1000 and Pearson Sound.

I can't think of a better way to celebrate DIRTYBIRD's 10 year anniversary than by releasing 14 great tracks that I fully support. There’s no fluff in here. Everyone from our amazing talent pool has delivered their A game material. And l have also added a few great new names to the family. 

It’s hard to believe that this little project started in my bedroom in the Lower Haight, San Francisco 10 years ago. I can distinctly remember hand stamping vinyl promos at home with my friend Fernando and trying to figure out the best way to mail them to Europe.  I remember the very first guy to ever call me back about our music was Edgar Dirksen in Frankfurt, Germany, who was working at a now defunct distributor called Neuton.  This was the only place that would agree to sell our records back in 2005 and I still thank him for taking the chance on us. 

There have been many many people involved since the beginning. Special thanks to all who have helped me run the shop at different times such as my wife Aundy, Mike Bosley, Christian Martin, Adam Carter, Sharen Norden, Bryan James,  Luke Williams, Jonathan McDonald, Alastair Duncan and Stacey Gamble. Of course I couldn’t have done it without my good friend and the amazing music producer, Justin Martin, who helped shape our sound and also really define what it means to be part of DIRTYBIRD. 

A lot has happened in the music industry over the last 10 years but I like to think we have stayed consistent and managed to enjoy the ride. The players may change but the theme stays the same; keep it fun and funky. So please enjoy this very special compilation of our music and here’s to another 10 years of DIRTYBIRD!

Much Love,
Claude VonStroke

DIRTYBIR BBQ: FILTHY FLAVOR

Melt!

In a reality that wasn’t too long ago, we’d all be packing up our tents and supplies and headed out for our favorite weekend of the year, Dirtybird Campout. Well unless you’re listening to this on another planet (we wish we were there with you), we all know how 2020 turned out.

But in keeping with the spirit of Campout, we still have our game face on and presenting a 7 day virtual festival on our recently launched Dirtybrd TV channel along with our annual compilation, “Couchout”.

Campout has always been about our favorite artists playing games with the other campers, so it’s only appropriate that we kick things off with head Camp Counselor Claude VonStroke’s collaboration with newcomer Mike Kerrigan, “I Caught A Vibe”.

The rest of the compilation is packed with music from VNSSA, DJ Glen & Bruno Furlan, Codes & Truth x Lies, Robot Love, Jynx, Mitch Dodge, E.R.N.E.S.T.O, Dutch Dannis, Sam Shelby, Nick Siarom, Arnold & Lane and an artist you are about to hear a lot more from, Nikki Nair.

See you on the Couch!

Claude VonStroke & Mike Kerrigan - I Caught A Vibe [DIRTYBIRD]

You know Dirtybird for dropping basslines and creating smiles on the dance floor since January 2005.

The fun family vibe of the Dirtybird label can be traced back to a free event started in Golden Gate Park, San Francisco. This new kind of house music went against the smooth vocal house that was popular at the time and derived its influences mostly from hip-hop, drum n bass, and American funk. The free outdoor BBQ party was very rough around the edges but eventually became legendary amongst the people of San Francisco. This event was also a very influential factor in the decision by Claude VonStroke to start the record label in 2005.

Today, Dirtybird has offices in San Francisco and Los Angeles and has expanded into events and tour production. As it grows, the brand continues to expand beyond music into merchandise, licensing and artist management. In 2015, Dirtybird launched the inaugural Dirtybird Campout festival, which has been dubbed “Summer Camp For Adults”, and Dirtybird has been recognized from their achievements by being awarded "Underground Label of the Year" at the International Dance Music Awards, “Label of the Decade” by Mixmag, “Best North American Label” by DJ Mag, and Billboard’s "Top 5 Independent Dance Labels".
