Cat#: Gomma DT 041

Your favourite Parisan power boogie-bot Toni Harispuru aka Golden Bug went to Brooklyn, had some burger, drinks and met New York City party guru Lou Teti. They played around in a friend’s homestudio and the result is: Play Around. Flashy tribal drums + a big boogie bass + some Cameo kind of spaced out vocals..

The Play Around single includes remixes by Justin Roberston aka The Deadstock 33s from London and newcomer Tad Wily.

Golden Bug & Dakar – Magia Potagia EP (Maxi)

Golden-Bug_Magia_Potagia

Golden Bug is demand right now: A-Trak is a huge fan and asked him for a remix recently. Bang Gang and Kitsune also just wanted remixes of him. Golden Bug – man from Paris. Living in Barcelona – has a unique sound. Hot, catchy Partytools. Somewhere between the funk of Mr. Oizo. The Sunburst rock of Tale Impala and some Ethnovibes of forgotten asian LSD Hippies.

Finally he finished a new EP: Magia Potagia feat. Dakar from Berlin.

This EP rocks. And: Check also the videos: Made by a guy who owns the rights for a couple of completely weird Spanish B-movies from the 70ies. Horror, vampire, science fiction. He edited this totally absurd stuff and created a couple of videos for the new Golden Bug tracks that are…. maaaaaad.
