Ladies and Gentlemen, we present Noise Destruction

We would like to welcome Noise Destruction into the Headtunes family. I have been a fan of these guys for a while and its a thrill for me to announce that we will be releasing a couple of their tracks in the coming weeks.

It's pretty fair to say that DJZ and FAKIR are the pioneers of house and techno culture in Serbia & Montenegro.They started as NOISE DESTRUCTION in 1992. although they met in 90. Their interest in HIPHOP and later ACID HOUSE resulted with collaboration and when their first bootleg/single called "Laki is a little nervous" became really big in clubs,duo decided to continue producing music. During the 90's they were responsible for building the scene in the country through their residencies in clubs,TV and RADIO shows and shocking live acts. Their first international recognition was through German NEUFORM label with 3 singles which came out during 1997-1998 In 1999. when EXIT festival started DJZ and FAKIR were involved and they stayed residents for this biggest festival in eastern europe for 4 years. NOISE DESTRUCTION performed live in june 2007. with CHEMICAL BROTHERS and on DANCE ARENA / EXIT festival in july 2007.After a long brake new tracks are coming out and they are starting their own label called Boomerang Fish with two sublabels Stativa and Vaseline Kamikezes. Noise Destruction will start hosting a internet radio show called Boomerang on greek Dance radio.

Markus Mehta "India" out now!

Our boy Markus Mehta has a new release out this week called India on Great Stuff Recordings. Great tech-house number. We've also have a new mix and his chart for July.

Enjoy!


Markus Mehta “India“
Great Stuff Recordings // AVAILABLE WORLDWIDE

“My track INDIA which I‘ve just completed will be part of Great Stuff‘s second big compilation “Great SummerGames Stuff“. It‘s been a pleasure to work on this one, especially because I was able to work a bit of my roots into this track. My father is from India and my mum is German. I hope you will enjoy the end result, which is a very modern, heavy compressed, sexy tech house tune. My style is normally different from what Great Stuff is releasing but I am very happy that they invited me to be a part of this diverse project.“ - Markus

Beatport Link for India: Beatport

Check out his new mix and chart!

Markus Mehta “Trails“
DJ Mix - July 2008

Get it from Sendspace
Get it from Megaupload

“Trails“ gives you an idea of the tracks and styles I really like these days. Everything is much slower and more housier again but still with a very techy structure. I call it Techno with an futuristic House feeling. The mix builds up in a very organic way and leads you nicely through the various moods and grooves.“ - Markus
