Pimpin’ Ain’t Easy, Hong Kong’s monthly party showcasing rising international stars in contemporary dance music is taking place this Friday, November 7th. The latest edition features Dre Skull, a New York based producer / D.J., who has put out some great remixes of other new acts on the scene. Also on the bill for the night are DJ Kamikaze and DJ El Nomo, a Shanghai based duo behind the top monthly party Bananas. (more…)

There are a number of mp3 blogs that are influential and allow new talents, (often bedroom producers or small city d.j.s,) to rise from obscurity and get catapulted onto the international circuit. This is usually accomplished by a string of unlicensed remixes of popular or underground songs. Well Hatchmatik isn’t one of those guys! Actually, he’s sort of one of those guys, though he’s already made a name for himself as part of the top club crew in Montreal.

The gang behind the monthly Pimpin’ Ain’t Easy night at Club Cliq seem to be tapping this network and bringing Hong Kong some of the new talents before they break through to larger recognition. Catch these guys while you have a chance! They’re still hungry and excited about playing in new cities around the world. (more…)
