The 11th Palms & Flamingos´ release comes from Onosizo & Upstroke.

When listening to "The Craze Won´t Fade" EP, one immediately catches the vibe of Old School Funk mixed with a modern touch of Club Music. Upstroke, who provides the rhythms and synths on ʼThe Craze Won´t Fadeʼ and ʼStir It Upʼ refers to this as ʼCali Houseʼ. The synth-sounds lay smoothly under Onosizo´s voice, but it´s the bass-lines and the bass-sounds that give the songs that modern-day "Club-Push". They are hard to ignore on the dance-floor.

Sasha Upstroke already released an EP together with Palms & Falmingosʼ label honcho Click | Click on the Californan label Smoke Nʼ Mirrors. So it was only a question of time to bring him on the board of the Palms & Flamingos boat!

Onosizo, better known to most as Ono, was the frontman of the 90s Hip Hop band Walkin Large and of the Berlin based Electro-Rap-Crew Data MC. Even though the focus on this EP is on singing, rapping still comes naturally to him, On ʼNot Afraid To Danceʼ, produced by Intergalactic Rebel, he teams up with the talented LilʼAnn to deliver another Club Banger. While the track is heavy-bass driven, Onosizo and LilʼAnn smoothly bounce the Raps back-to-back and offer more than one reason to not be afraid to dance.

ʼMy Violet Dreamʼ, produced by DJ Derezon, is a moody love-song with a R&B groove and feel to it. The drum-sounds are well selected and suit Onosizo´s voice and performance perfectly. The lyrics are based on a real life situation.

As a bonus Jan Ketel, who had worked with Onosizo on his own "Drop It Low" EP (PNF010), completes the EP with his outstanding funkee & deep ʼHomies Dub Mixʼ of ʼThe Craze Won´t Fadeʼ.

DJ'ING MAY APPEAR ELEMENTARY BUT ARSENIK REMINDS US THAT EVEN THE SIMPLEST STUFF REQUIRES AN EXPERT HAND TO BECOME SOMETHING GREATER.

IN THE NATIONAL CAPITAL ARSENIK KEEPS DANCE FLOOR ROLLING WITH HIS EAR FOR GREAT MUSIC. ARSENIK CUTS HIS CHOPS AT QUINTESSENTIAL NEW DELHI HOT SPOTS & CHIC NIGHTCLUBS. FROM THESE EXPERIENCES ARSENIK HAS GONE ON TO ROCK THE DECKS FOR MANY MAJOR EVENTS & FESTIVALS ALL AROUND THE NATION.

WHEN NOT PERFORMING, HE SPENDS HIS TIME AT HIS HOME STUDIO CREATING & PRODUCING HIS OWN MUSIC. ALWAYS CROSSING BOUNADRIES AND PUSHING HIS THOUGHTS INTO NEW DIMENSIONS. ARSENIK'S HUNGER TO EXCEL AND ADAPT TO TRENDS IS MORE THAN ENOUGH TO WHIP THE CROWD INTO FRENZY.

Most of us come under the spell of the electronic cosmos sooner or later, but doing so at the tender age of 4 years rather seems highly exceptional. And even if this might appear almost impossible at first glance, this was indeed the case for young Christoph alias Click | Click, when he heard Kraftwerk for the very first time on the radio back then. Therefore, it is no surprise that this experience was going to change his life significantly.

His name thereby originates from his earliest musical roots when he was still forfeited to the more minimal sounds of Techno and in which time he also started his first own label Kassette Records in the year 2006. And even if much has happened since and a lot changed musically, Click | Click always remained true to his roots by keeping his name. Through his musical transformation from Minimal Techno to Jackin' House, also the labels changed in the course of time, on which we have been able to pursue his musical talent over the years.

In 2013, he already established his second labels Palms & Flamingos, meant to provide room for exactly such projects, which had developed over the years. Of course it did not take long, until many reputable labels of the scene got wind of his artistic refinement. Like this, Click | Click already put out numerous releases on imprints like Green Velvet/ Cajmere's Cajual, Shir Khan's Exploited Ghetto, Mihalis Safras' Label Mr. Carter/ Material and Riva Starr's Snatch! Records, which not only lead to countless chart positions on relevant platforms, but also caused further international interest in his music.

Productions like Teenage Killerfunkband (2010), Ducks In The Kiddie Pool (2013), Girls Girls Girls (2013), The Muzic Box (2015) or Birdhain (2017) made their way into the crates of scene pioneers like Magda, Jamie Jones, Green Velvet or Claude VonStroke. This diversified and respectable appreciation of his creative doing naturally provided him with numerous national and international performances in the best clubs and most important festivals of the world as well.

Like that, he already played in such reputable venues like the Watergate Berlin, Ministry of Sound London or D-Edge Sao Paulo, as well as the meanwhile relocated to Portugal BPM Festival Mexico or the Monarch/ Great Northern in San Francisco. Also his successfully completed tours through varying countries like Brazil, Mexico, USA, China, South Korea or Thailand make unmistakably clear, that the name Click | Click should not be forgotten too quickly.
