Exclusive Dandy Riots Interview

BlackSugar Music Online
Artist Interview: Dandy Riots

This week, we catch up with one of our rising stars, Dandy Riots. In this exclusive interview, we're given a rare insight into how Dandy Riots began and the thought process behind his incredible tracks.

Can you give us five words that best describe what Dandy Riots is about?

"bass, visuals, performance, fashion and experience."

How did you get started with the Dandy Riots project

"I started running an art and music club night called COME. I needed a DJ and thought I would give it a go. I then started to get more gigs and decided to start making music alongside the visuals and DJ set."

What do you want to achieve with your next releases?

"I want to make an interactive video EP and work with other musicians and visual artists."

What do you look for when remixing other artists?

"Usually I like a good vocal to play about with. It helps if the original track is upbeat but it can make the remix more intense if there's a contrast in between downbeat vocals and energetic drops. I tend to remix the video of the original too."

What do you think of the music produced by other Black Sugar artists?

"Young Fathers are some of the most talented boys I know. They are forward thinking and have one of the best live shows of an underground band that I have experienced. Any Colour Black put on a good show too. Their tracks have great sex appeal about them."

What can the fans expect from you live?

"I start my shows with a theatrical performance that coincides with the music and visuals. Throughout the set I try to squeeze every bit of energy out of the crowd by playing the heaviest and newest tracks from lesser known producers along with my own tracks."

What's next for Dandy Riots?

I've got my debut EP coming out on Black Sugar Records and will be launching a clothing line soon. My next gig is Zzzap! at the Liquid Rooms in Edinburgh during Fresher's week.

There you have it. Catch Dandy Riots live with labelmates Young Fathers on September 13th at the liquid Rooms. If you want to hear some music from Dandy Riots you can check him out here on soundcloud:

Young Fathers – Automatic (Jayou Remix)
Track URL: http://fairtilizer.com/track/111410
Track Password: yf10

With a sound reminiscent of early Outcast, De La Soul and Spank Rock; young electro hip hop trio Young Fathers release brand new single ‘Automatic’/‘Dancing Mantaray’ in the UK this summer through This is Music (SMD, Little Boots).

Having spent the past year feverishly touring and recording fresh new material, this AA single is produced by critically acclaimed producer Ginz.

Young Fathers recently supported Simian Mobile Disco on tour, a relationship that saw Simian go on to produce and co write the track ‘Turn Up The Dial’ with Young Fathers – this featured on SMD’s 2009 album. They have also collaborated with break-beat duo Stanton Warriors on their forthcoming single ‘Take Me To Your Leader’. Young Fathers have also recently played with Esser, Dizzee Rascal, The Noisettes, La Roux, Grandmaster Flash, Yo Majesty and Annie Mac amongst others. In addition to all this the boys have been busy writing and finishing tracks for their forthcoming album.

The Edinburgh based three piece, Ally, Kayus and G, met as young teens in the only under 18’s hip hop club in town. Sharing a love of soul, reggae, old school hip-hop and cheesy 90’s pop tunes, they started out recording music in their bedrooms, using only a karaoke machine and a plastic microphone from Argos. They’ve come a long way since then.

After releasing their anthemic debut single ‘Straight Back On It’, the boys have been keeping themselves busy: remixing numerous tracks for Phoenix, Golden Silvers, Shoes vs Primary 1, Dan Black and Esser. They’ve been constantly on the road, refining and developing their critically acclaimed and brilliantly choreographed live shows, impressing crowds with their outrageous dance moves throughout the UK and Europe.

Having played their first big festivals last summer (T in The Park, Lovebox, Creamfields), Young Fathers will be back this autumn with a new release

Can I just say that I spontaneously decided to come see you at T last Saturday and it was a fucking belter of a choice because I really enjoyed your set! Your music was refreshing and the crowd participation and Michael Jackson tribute were seriously second to none. Just thought I'd let you know that you've gained a new fan in Norwich, England!
Cheers lads,
Perry!
