Foolcast 029 – His Majesty Andre "Play It, Don't Say It"

Posted on Dec 6th, 2011

The latest Foolcast comes from our disco lovin Italian bro His Majesty Andre, who whipped up a collection of OG samples from some of your favorite dance records. Says HMA, “As you’ve might have noticed, I go crazy for sampling. No matter if it’s pop, house music, experimental or hip-hop, I’ve always been fascinated by the way you can turn a thing into another, whether a straight loop or a chopped, replayed and distorted one. The samples used in music are countless, I just chose my favorites.” No tracklist, that’s part of the fun…

Foolcast 024 – NegroClash "The Activator Mix"

Posted on Jun 16th, 2011

When even 50 Cent is rocking curls, you know that Summer ’11 is getting off to a particularly wavy start. So what better time to release “The Activator Mix” into the world?!?

Fool’s Gold is proud to present a brand-new DJ mix from NegroClash, aka NYC party stalwarts and longtime label friends DJ Lindsey, Prince Language and Duane Harriott. The trio have whipped up a note-perfect collection of funkables perfect for your next house party, BBQ, vacation drive, or any other hot-weather activity that requires that extra degree of jams.

Foolcast 023 – Canblaster

Posted on May 4th, 2011

Who is Club Cheval? “Nous sommes un collectif, un label, un laboratoire, une écurie. Nous sommes situés entre Lille, Paris et Londres.” This stable of bass wizards has been responsible for some of the funnest, oddest club tracks of the past year or so. The youngest of the crew is Canblaster, who burst on the scene like a synth-wielding Harry Potter with facemelting singles like “Jetpack,” “Clockworks,” and a gleefully warped collection of remixes, like his take on our Style Of Eye and Slagsmålsklubben single “Homeless.”

Combine that discography with his enthusiastic, thoroughly unpredictable approach to DJing, and it’s no wonder that Canblaster has quickly become an extended fam favorite over here at FG. But don’t take our word for it – go float with his brand new Foolcast mix, “Skyscrapers Are The Mountains Of The City,” a hypnotic collection of digital jams new and old.

Foolcast 022 – Missile Command

Posted on Apr 28th, 2011

For the latest edition of our Foolcast mix series, we’re proud to present the debut of Missile Command, a new DJ team comprised of Neptunes / N*E*R*D mastermind Chad Hugo and longtime DMV partyrocker Hip Hop Dan.

The dynamic duo just got home from soundtracking a weekend of afterparties at Coachella and hopped right back into the booth to put together this Foolcast for us, falling somewhere between a traditional DJ mix – new favorites, remixes, left-field bangers – and a studio broadcast sneak peek. Check the tracklist after the jump, featuring tons of exclusives from the likes of No Planes In Space (another Chad collab, this time with Paul Banks of Interpol), Lupe Fiasco and more.
