From the "Bing Ji Ling and Alex from Tokyo present..."(wf-003) to be released on vinyl in stores worldwide on March 21st, 2016 through Complete USA.

The multi-talented musician/producer Bing Ji Ling (www.bingjiling.com/Tummy Touch Records/Ubiquity Records/Lovemonk Records/Claremont 56) and DJ Alex from Tokyo (Tokyo Black Star)are very excited to share with you here as world famous' 2nd release(Bing Ji Ling and Alex from Tokyo present...(wf-003))a brand new, collaborative track “Not My Day”, that encapsulates their experience in New York, as well as their friendship. It’s been a few years in the making, but well worth the wait! Alex and Bing moved to New York around the same time, and met in a bar (filled with Loft heads) after one of David Mancuso’s Loft parties.  Bing recognized Alex’s voice from his weekly Shibuya FM radio show in Tokyo, and went up to introduce himself, being a fan. Turns out, they have many friends in common in New York, Tokyo, and beyond. They were instant friends; family. The track came out of several listening sessions from Bing’s basement studio in the East Village, where Alex shared some tracks he’d be digging, across a wide range of genres, eras, tempos, etc.. Everything was very easy, very natural…Back in Tokyo Alex and Isao bring their club vibe and remix the funky and groovy “Not My Day” into a magnifique electronic deep house anthem!

On the flip is Bing’s version of Lil Louis’ club classic “Lonely People” (selected by Gilles Peterson as one of his tracks of the year for his Worldwide Awards 2015) Alex has been playing non stop, providing along here his own DJ friendly Tokyo Black Star retouch club version. Bing’s version was originally recorded for his covers album called “Sunshine For Your Mind” that was first released in Japan on the label Rush Production. This album came about, after years of playing solo/acoustic covers with a looping pedal in Japan. Bing has since performed the song live in New York, London, and at Croatia’s Garden Festival with rave reviews! 

Bing Ji Ling and Alex now live just minutes from each other in New York City as well as the Catskills, and enjoy frequent meals, music and mountains. We hope you enjoy…Happy Spring!

As part of the ten-year anniversary Dekmantel presents the final record in a ten-part-EP series. Split into two parts due to its immensity, the final instalment is a re-issue of Tony Allen’s ‘Asiko (In A Silent Mix)’ originally released in 1999 and remixes by Motor City Drum Ensemble and Ricardo Villalobos. The last record in the series sees MCDE delivering a trademark track that will send dance floors on fire worldwide.

Part two of the EP features the Motor City Drum Ensemble remix, and the original “In A Silent Mix” version from 1999; a track out of its time when released on Allen’s sole record “Black Voices”. A long serving Dekmantel veteran, Danilo Plessow was there from the start. After compiling the first Selector’s compilation last year, MCDE turns Tony Allen’s masterpiece in a jam, with added house beats, giving the funk number the edit treatment. The final mix sounds like the kind of track you would hear MCDE play in one of his sets as he’s firing up the heat. The organ sounds and trumpets are left high in the mix, to create an unforgettable hook that resonates throughout, in complete Motor City style.

Highlighting the diversity of sounds that have come to represent the Dutch label and festival series, the EPs to date have encompassed a range of artists and genres, featuring label favourites, as well as whole bunch of debuting artists. The EP series kicked off in March 2018, and over the course of a year featured the likes of Gigi Masin, Lena Willikens, Burnt Friedman, Donato Dozzy, The Egyptian Lover, Palms Trax, and more.

in honor of reaching the 1000 follower mark, ive reworked this remix from 3 years ago. originally picked up this record just for the freaky cover but  always really loved the track, the groove, the vocals... but never really the finished a mix, so ive come back to it for one more round. thank you to everyone for the follows and enjoy !

Jerry Williams - Easy on yourself (dub)

Vargulf, the wolf who slaughters for pleasure, lures you deep into his private oasis with Sydney bush bashers The Loin Brothers providing the sound track.  The original mix is a Cerrone-esque disco odyssey featuring a rolling bass line and orchestral strings which slides into a howling guitar solo climax.  The Acid Re-Rub expresses the will of Vargulf through sweaty acid lines, storming piano stabs peaking with a frantic instrumental feeding frenzy.
  
Los Angeles production team Woolfy Vs Projections serve up their top sirloin mix, coaxing the garden open to receive the morning sunshine.  The remix showcases their blissed out  tropical sound, featuring vocals from the Woolfman himself.
 Melbourne musterer Tornado Wallace also enters the Garden to round off the EP.  He lays down a deep and heavy beat that pounds under the moonlit spectacle. This remix follows on from his recent 12” on Delusions of Grandeur of which has seen support from Greg Wilson, Mr Scruff and Mark E.
 
Garden of Vargulf is the much anticipated follow up release from The Loins’ 'Heavy Helmet', which featured a remix by Mock N Toof.  Heavy Helmet caught the attention of artists such as Aeroplane, Ewan Pearson and Ivan Smagghe, with Smagghe  featuring the remix on his Live at Robert Johnson mix.

On a Journey

Alex from Tokyo calling with a special announcement: the exciting relaunch of his record label “world famous.” After several years on the move and in the studio, the Paris-born, Tokyo-raised, and now Paris-based DJ/music producer/sound designer is ready to bring you fresh music from his collaborative projects AWIDA and Tokyo Black Star.
 
AWIDA’s NYC Connexion EP tells a story—three stories in fact. In a trio of instrumental tracks, Alex from Tokyo and Willie Graff pay tribute to the places they love: New York City, Ibiza, and Berlin. Inspired by the unique soundscapes and club cultures of each city, the two DJ friends (who met while spinning records at NYC club Cielo in the mid-2000s) came together in late-night jam sessions at Darren Eboli’s studio in Tribeca to bring the soundscapes to life. That journey gave birth to AWIDA (A for Alex, WI for Willie, and DA for Darren), and world famous proudly presents the project’s first creation. The groove-inducing EP features Brooklyn’s Danilo Braca from The Sound of New York City on the mixing board and the artwork of top NYC artist ROSTARR from his epic painting “Eclipse Mars.”
 
In 2020, world famous brings you a special 12-inch single featuring the original unreleased version of “Blade Dancer.” These new offerings follow up world famous’ vinyl-only release of Tokyo Black Star’s Edo Express EP (2015) and Fantasy Live 1999 (2016), and Bing Ji Ling and Alex from Tokyo present (2016).
