"What do you do when you've toured the world as a DJ for the past 16 years and been an internationally acclaimed production outfit for over 10 of those? You stop. Just to start over again."

Yannick Labbé, Producer, DJ and former half of the now defunct Trickski steps into the limelight as a solo artist. Trickski's unpredictable, extra-terrestrial style mixed Rare Groove with Techno and House producing a raw electronic framework which gave birth to the all-conquering Pill Collins towards the end of the pair's journey together.

With the project put fimly to bed Yannick picks up his own musical thread in 2015 which has given rise to a plethora of solo-releases, remixes and co-productions... so we thought it about time to ask him to lay down his sublime musical mandate for the Ransom Note mix. Let's get this on, then find have a chat to him.
