love the vibe on this one. willk include in my future Magical Journey podcast. Full support!!!

Two brothers born on opposite sides of the world, coming together to make music. A tale you think you’ve heard before, but not quite like this. This was a relationship born over a single word, never to be spoken nor written, nor even sketched. But somehow this word became the mystical thread that brought these two beat-wizards together. If you must know what this word is you’ll have to ask them yourselves, but we hear Voldemort won't even go near this one.

After that brief history lesson, let's get to the music! These two savage men have joined forces on what can only be described as a Funky & Chunky joint effort. Big-ass bass, phat-ass kicks, and dirty-ass hats combined around a hooky vocal and snappy breakbeats make this the thickest booty you’re gonna drop this week. Wongo & Tony told us they used a sledgehammer and a bowl of jelly as inspiration, and somehow that kinda makes sense...

It doesn't get much crazier than this so hey, let's just roll with it :P Enjoy.

STREAM / BUY

Wongo & Tony Romera - Funky & Chunky (BOX OF CATS x SANS MERCI)

Leeds-based producer Aaron Snapes first popped into the underground after his first release in 2012 appeared on Claude VonStroke’s Essential Mix and garnered further support from Annie Mac. Since then, he’s split his allegiances between Dirtybird, Hannover’s This Ain’t Bristol, and Los Angeles label Perfect Driver, all while pushing a sound that has this weird effect of having you shaking your ass and crack up laughing at the same time. 

Aaron Snapes - Sausages (Walker & Royce Remix)

Our first ever compilation has arrived! We are extremely excited to showcase the talent that has blessed our events for the last year. Enjoy!

Out West (Eyes Everywhere Bootleg)

[BIRDFEED EXCLUSIVE] This week's track comes from Ireland's Sharpson!


-How long have you been creating music?
I used to write and record on my keyboard since I was a young fella, maybe about 9 or 10. But I've been producing since I was 14 years old, so properly about 12 years now.

-What do you use to make your tracks?
I've been addicted to Reason since I started. I'm on Reason 9.5, and can't see myself changing anytime soon. I like to do out my drum patterns first on my Korg Electribe SX, then recreate them in Reason. It's nice to have your hands on a physical, limited, drum machine, I find the restrictions make you a lot more creative.

-How and when did you first discover Dirtybird?
I'd been a fan of Claude Van Stroke for a long time, since I heard the Magic Carpet Ride remix when I was a teenager. So when he started his own label, I naturally just started to follow it. I think when I heard Shiba San's Okay, I realized how many banger the label had in it's repertoire and it really sparked my interest.

-Which Dirtybird artist would you want to collaborate with the most?
There's too many. The main man himself, Claude Van Stroke. I've been loving Westend's subby basslines, they remind me of old DNB classics that I loved when I first started DJing and producing. I've been rinsing 'Tarzan' by Black V Neck constantly. As well, Rebuke is a fellow Irish man and a serious producer who's been working hard for years. He's hailed as a bit of a hero here.  

-If your entire life was a movie, what title would best describe you?
The trials and tribulations of a Hairy Bastard.

-What’s the best concert you’ve ever been to?
The Prodigy @ 02 Dublin - 2009.

-If you could time travel, where and when would you go?
The Jurassic period. I wanna ride on a t-rex and do a load of wheelies.

-What species of bird best describes you and why?
A budgie, because I don't shut the fuck up.

-What does Dirtybird mean to you?
Innovative, well-produced, fun music. Dirtybird tunes have played a large part throughout my DJ life.

Sharpson - Copy Cat [BIRDFEED]

We are back at it with the second edition of our new Bones To Pick various artists series. Kicking off the compilation is a catchy record from longtime label friends Wait For Me and FreeSurf. It is full of analog goodness and sadly relatable as the girls aren't the only the ones who have been 'up in that house' for a while now. Skene Music delivers a chunky tune that will have you tempted to 'Try This' when you scroll by it in your playlist, followed by new Canadian duo Start Sign as they take a vocal classic and twist it up with a driving bass line and modern tech house vibe. MUUS, Will On Cloud Nine and BearKat round off the collection with funky records of their own that will be sure to get some love on the dance floors (once we can all party again of course). Stay safe and enjoy!
