I'm gonna put a hole in my T.V. set
I don't want to grow up
Open up the medicine chest
I don't want to grow up

Strictly Kev aka DJ Food aka Openmind - Music producer, DJ and Graphic Designer. I've worked with and for Ninja Tune since 1993, designing covers, mixing radio shows and producing records as well as touring the world DJing. 

Quango began as an ambassador for a new wave of mid-late 90’s chilled-out electronica emerging around the world in a variety of flavors. Founded by Los Angeles-based radio and club DJ, Bruno Guez, Quango was developed over its first decade as an imprint of Chris Blackwell’s Island Records and Palm Pictures. In it’s seminal first three years, Guez and his creative partner, Jason Bentley, two DJs with a passion for sharing dance music, closely curated the Quango aesthetic, and are credited with releasing nearly thirty taste-making albums widely acknowledged by the music community to be well ahead of their time. They featured artists like Bomb the Bass, Kruder and Dorfmeister, Talvin Singh, Tricky and Sneaker Pimps. Quango’s audience quickly grew from a collective of devoted party-goers to a niche community of in-the-know, cosmopolitan city dwellers. Quango has made a significant impact on LA cultural history, as well as on the burgeoning electronic music scene.

Quango's first release under the Palm Pictures umbrella was the seminal Zero 7 album, Simple Things. By 2001, Quango’s focus shifted from dance-centric tunes to a new, artist driven sound and became less present in the club scene while setting the tone in hip bars, restaurants, hotels and lifestyle retail chains. 

The twenty years since Quango’s formation have witnessed dramatic changes in the way that music is experienced, marketed and distributed. Despite the changing business models, Quango’s core vision has remained faithful to its ongoing quest for the freshest music from around the globe. More than just a trendsetting label focused on bringing global grooves to a North American audience, Quango emerged as a leader in music licensing, digital technology and the burgeoning field of lifestyle branding. 
    
The most recent phase in the label’s cycle showed an explosion in the film, advertising and TV placement world.  Billboard called Quango “a leader in the licensing game”-- Quango music could be heard spicing up countless hit TV shows such as Grey’s Anatomy, House, The Hills, Desperate Housewives, CSI: Miami, Entourage, and  Nip/Tuck, as well as major motion pictures like Duplicity, Confessions of a Shopaholic,, The Devil Wears Prada and Sex and the City. Flagship act Zero 7 scored a spot on the zeitgeist-defining soundtrack to Garden State; Bitter:Sweet contributed their sexy single “The Bomb” as the theme song to Lipstick Jungle, and provided music for the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show special, and Nina Ricci’s 2011-2012 advertising campaign. Chances are if you’ve seen the national ad campaigns for brands such as Korbel, Bebe or Microsoft, you’ve heard the ubiquitous sound of Quango. 

Quango continues to evolve from a taste-making record label turned branding bellwether that is revolutionizing the way that music interacts with our daily life. Its newest ventures include interactive multimedia releases, mobile and social marketing applications built for enhancing direct-to-consumer transactions between Quango artists and fan communities, allowing for closer connections between its artists and their ardent supporters. 

The Quango of today is every bit as progressive as the eclectic music on its roster. And behind the company’s extraordinary success is its founder, Bruno Guez, whose adventurous spirit is re-shaping what it means to be a record label. With one foot rooted in traditional A&R and the other in the rapidly advancing world of digital technology, Guez has more than weathered the changing tides of the record industry. He has embraced the digital music revolution, while never forgetting the distinctive music at the center of his success. Effortlessly hip and fearlessly modern, Quango is a music company for the future.

After 15 years of forward-thinking musical fusion, Boozoo Bajou returned in 2009 with their most sophisticated album on !K7 as yet: ‘Grains’. Parallel Florian Seyberth – one half of the musical duo – has just completed another DJ-tour through the US and Asia playing clubs from San Francisco to Jarkarta and alongside the Studio 54 DJ-legend Francois Kervorkian, who has invited him to his “Deep Space”-Club-Night in NY several times. Also selected gigs this autumn saw them perform sharing the stage with such diverse musicians as Mulatu Astatke and Jazzanova.

Boozoo Bajou´s producers Florian Seyberth and Peter Heider are already widely celebrated around the globe for their unique blend of modern electronica with blues, jazz, soul, latin-music and dub.

Boozoo Bajou earned attention with their irresistible breakthrough single ‘Night Over Manaus’ in 1998, their 2001 released debut album ‘Satta’ and it ´s 2005 sequel ‘Dust My Broom’. They also demonstrated their excellent and wide-ranging musical taste on two excellent mix- compilations, ‘Juke Joint’ and ‘Juke Joint II’ on !K7. With more than 100.000 albums sold and their music being featured on over 300 compilations, Boozoo Bajou have managed to capture a wide audience with their individualistic approach to modern music.

In addition, Florian and Peter have remixed or collaborated with a diverse range of major artists. These include hip-hop superstar Common, Mary J. Blige, Jazz legend Pharoah Sanders, New Zealand’s finest Fat Freddy’s Drop, Songwriter Josh Rouse, Rapper Oh No from the Stones Throw camp, former Motown writer-producer and blaxploitation soundtrack legend Willie Hutch, and the veteran Louisiana singer-songwriter Tony Joe White, author of the all-time classic ‘Rainy Night In Georgia’. 

Deeply rooted in dance-culture, Boozoo Bajou are well known around the globe for their inspired DJ-sets. While current live-activities involve a full band celebrating a more organic and jazzy approach to their unique music, Florian Seyberth´s DJ-activities are guaranteed to fill the floors. He started running his own club in 1996 and DJs around the world. Florian can be found behind the decks on his own, or with his musical partner Peter Heider or even alongside their long-time MC “T-Weed” from the Rocker Hifi Camp. 

With his sophisticated mix of techno, dub, house, neo-disco, downbeats, hip hop and soulful tunes, he is one of the few DJs worldwide, who creates a fusion of all these genres and sounds, that not only has a red thread running all throughout the set, but also will build a positive tension with the listeners and will produce a coherent musical narrative. Playing huge festival like Big Chill and Coachella various times, Florian has gained an international reputation and has become an ambassador for the modern European music-scene. 

Reaching their next level, Boozoo Bajou´s evolution is ongoing, so is their mission. The presently released remix-collection “Dust my Grains” (!K7) and the DJ Mix CD “Coming Home” (Stereo Deluxe) are their next releases in the first half of 2010. Both compilation-albums represent the innovative electronic-music side of Boozoo Bajou.
