Bio: ‘One of the most exciting producers of 2009’ – Jesse Rose
Lucas Hunter & Nat Self are ‘Zombie Disco Squad’ the multi-talented production duo that are taking house music in a new direction. Taking influences from Balie Funk, African rhythms, Baltimore, Hip-Hop, the so-called fidget sound & making it sound fresh. You won’t find any cheesy gimmicks in their records but what you will find are tracks played by some of the most influential DJ’s & clubs around the globe.
Zombie Disco Squad started life in 2006 after putting on nights around London’s pivotal venues such as the The Social and Catch. They made their name with regular mixtapes, which toured the globe via the internet and had a string of internet ‘hits’ (10,000 downloads for the track ‘Straight Boy’). Influenced by African percussion, foreign languages and jacking music Lucas & Nat were soon traveling around the world touring the states and across Europe. They had touched down in clubs such as Fabric in London, Panorama Bar in Berlin and Hive in Zurich before even having one official single release. Their remixes, on the other hand, have recently had plays by Radio 1’s Annie Mac, Pete Tong and Zane Lowe to name a few.
The boys have already picked up support from across the board with Jesse Rose signing them exclusively to his Made to Play label but not before one Mr Claude VonStroke stepped in for a single on DirtyBird.
2009 sees the duo release some more high profile remixes, Erik Hassle, Drop The Lime, Kasper Bjork, Jesse Rose, Uffie and even Black Box will see the sharp end of a ZDS makeover, original material comes in the form of a new Made To Play release and the boys DJ skills get showcased on the new Made To Play compilation CD, “Playing Around Again” which is available at all good record stores and on Beatport:
You can catch ZDS at their bi-monthly residency at Berlin’s Panorama Bar (recently voted the Number 1 club in the world!) and witness their DJ sets as they continue to travel across Europe, the Americas and the World, spreading the Zombie gospel as they go!! (less)
