Bottom Forty Mix 040: DJ Apt One

The Sound of Michael The Lion

Follow: soundcloud.com/djaptone, twitter.com/djatone, djaptone.com

Michael The Lion is the latest alter-ego of Philadelphia's DJ Apt One, the funky globe trotter with a long history of making cult-favorite dance-floor tunes. Michael The Lion chooses to call only the funkiest of bass and the lushest of textures to his service. With an arsenal of instruments, singers and synths and a cadre of dusty records, the vibe marches in his service.  His recent releases include a 12" on https://soundcloud.com/soulclaprecs (Funk Train f/ Amy Douglas), a remix for https://soundcloud.com/toddedwards3000 and Robert Lux on Young Robots,  and a four tracker for Razor-N-Tape which includes a monstrous floor stomper with long-time collaborator https://soundcloud.com/sammybananas.

Enjoy this hour long mix from Michael recorded live at the biggest little block party in Philly. There's plenty of disco delights, boogie beats, and soul jams to glide you right on through the day...

RNT is turning 10 releases old with this special and varied EP from Michael the Lion aka  @djaptone. Known recently for his work on Soul Clap records, Michael flexes his edit skills on this one, flipping some funk on the A-side with “Any Time,” and serving up classic italo cheek with “The Don.” The B-side erupts with the disco-house-bringer-downer “Get More” and finishes smooth with a fresh take on a well-worn sample with “909s and Herb,” a co-production with Sammy Bananas, of Fool’s Gold Record fame. This milestone record is a choice celebration of the quality that the RNT label has come to personify.

Hooked is the fantastic new party at Franky Bradley's featuring Michael The Lion (aka  @djaptone),@a-del-mix, and @ShawnRyan playing the classic disco sound - from past to present. If there's a group of DJs qualified to give a danceable disco history lesson, these guys are it! The music knowledge between these three gents runs DEEP and it was a great time hanging with them while they laid down this funky mix!

This Saturday night (5/30), get HOOKED at Franky Bradley's.

Solidisco - Oughta Be

@djaptone has had a killer year since unveiling his disco-tinged moniker Michael The Lion, contributing to a sold out 12" on Soul Clap Records with his track "Funk Train", releasing his own jam-packed 12" of edits on Brooklyn's Razor-N-Tape, and starting one of the city's hottest parties at new venue Franky Bradley's, HOOKED. Michael blessed the airwaves on Saturday afternoon with a slew of feel good disco vibes that you need to hear!

The 2015 Electronic Music Marathon was a 78 hour NONSTOP DJ marathon bringing together a diverse group of some of the best DJ talent in Philly to raise money for Mural Arts & WKDU.

Strange Danger

Cassius Slay - Git Up!

Jay Fay is 18 years old and has already rocked shows with Drake, Steve Aoki, Wale and Hood Internet, to name just a few. The St. Louis producer / dj / percussionist has many styles, from House and Kuduro to Dancehall and Hip-Hop. Bonkers is his debut EP, showcasing the genre he's become best known for, Moombahton. Not regular slowed-down, mashed-up edits, but fully evolved original anthems with insane laser synths, dubstep growls and wobbles, electro bass and percussive trickery. Did we mention huge build ups? Got those too! Support from Dillon Francis, Toddla T, Crookers, Munchi, Congorock, Tittsworth? Yes! 

Bonkers is dropping February 14 on Young Robots.

Jay Fay & Ra Cailum - Bonkers

Philadelphia's music scene has always been known as a "barrel of crabs," a swarm of aggressive talents ripping each other to shreds trying to climb towards the light.  It doesn't have to be that way.  

In the spirit of "Brotherly Love," Philly's finest emerging dance band, Nicos Gun has linked arms with one of the city's most forward-thinking dance labels, Young Robots, to create "We Could Die," a retrofuturistic remix single that puts the 215's best foot forward.

The original version of "We Could Die" chugs with Miami Vice-worthy synth-tensity, with a dose of vocals that brim with youthful nihilism and sex appeal.  

Young Robots' label co-chief DJ Apt One (of Philadelphyinz and RCMP fame) double dips with two remixes.  First, a re-imagination that drenches the vocals in a sprinkle of Purple Rain, then a deconstructive, funky "Disco Dub" that teases the listener with seductively funky disco bass until it bursts with dancefloor intensity.  

Vancouver's Kutcorners brings a smooth shuffle to his mix, with warm synths that make you want to put the top down and spin down South Street.  

Lastly, Peter Dragontail, adds not only a remix, but also contributes the cover art in his 215-famous signature style.  Like his breakout single "Crazy Bout You" (f/ Maggie Horn), Peter's remix has a slow burn, and he uses vocals to cast an eerie ambiance over his driving 3AM electro burner.

Young Robots and Nicos Gun will curate a release event at Kung Fu Necktie in Philly on April 20th, 2012 at DJ Apt One's monthly disco night "The Ball."  The night features Nicos Gun, Dragon King, Tunde Olaniran & Miz Korona (Exchange Bureau, Detroit), Peter Dragontail, DJ Apt One and DJ Bruce.
