hot natured represents a sunny and modern take on classic and future classic music. subtly changing, and adding a new edge to some of the many different genres that have influenced the east london wideboy and los angeles newcomer who are behind the label. along the way hot natured will serve up disco through techno re-edits, pop remixes even slices of hip hop injected with the kind of dancefloor knowledge only a seasoned dj can tap into. whether its the reimagining of seminal artists like radiohead to kanye west, or chic to notorious b.i.g, the main goal is to do this with a certain level of sophistication and class, that is often lacking in the >unofficial remix< world.these artists and their work have represented unique points of inspiration for hot natured and its aesthetic. some might argue, >why mess with perfection?< well that attitude isnt much fun, is it? so please sit back, or rather get up and enjoy the first serving of hot natured, two naughty groove riddled versions of possibly two of the best pop records of 2008, chopped spliced and funked up by a well known london techno youngster.

auch wenn ich die musik von dandi & ugo liebe, der titel big tits machts aber einen nicht einfach, ihre musik in worte zu fassen..big tits schüttelt einen, man denkt an italien, man denkt an la dolce vita, dabei ist big tits so minimal, ein schieber, nicht der deutsche way, schon sehr italienisch, aber eben wie italienerinnen sind auch diese 3 tracks die minimale erfrischung am abend, thats italy, omg. even though i love dandi & ugos music, the title big tits doesnt make it any easier to describe their music in words. big tits will shake you, will make you think of italy, think of la dolce vita, although big tits is so minimal, a stomper, not the german way, but quite italian. but just like italian women, these 3 tracks are the minimal refreshment in the evening. thats italy. omg.

axel karakasis once more unleashes his talents and demonstrates his skills in the piranha e.p. in the first track on the main side, the techno wizkid mightily combines a set of systemshaking loops and detroitfunklike piano keys that escalate into a crazy pitching, distortion not to be messed with! add to these some powerful percussion and ominus snares, together with karakasis trademark filter spins and twists and its an epic track that stands out on its own. bloody chamber alternates between nocturnal basslines, vicious subbass and high-pitched synths that are spinetingling. here, axel flirts with electro but you can always rely on him to bring in some serious groove: the result is solid, coherent and the track is something more than special!! the remain side proves equally mindblowing and. flesh eating! piranha is a stunner, adorned with aggressive drums, booming beats and odd sounds throughout the track. once again, it is axels energetic style that comes through, making this track a powerful club tool
