Knifehandchop
Billy Pollard became known as Knifehandchop after releasing his first album at age 18. He has been consistently producing fresh, new music ever since, and you can always count on each release sounding different than the previous one. His style blends elements of electro, hip-hop, house, techno, booty, and dancehall reggae to produce songs that either fit into one of these genres, or blend them together to create something unclassifiable and uniquely his own. Early in his musical career, Knifehandchop released a string of popular and illegal 7Ó records and CDs for British record label ÔIrritant RecordsÕ. These records used un-cleared samples scattered over huge beats, which resulted in loads of mainstream magazine attention, being covered by Mixmag, Muzik, URB, XLR8R, Vice Magazine and more. Since that point, he has becoming a longtime staple of kid606's Oakland-based Tigerbeat6 records, releasing his two most recent albums through them. In 2003 Knifehandchop recorded a live session for the late John Peel for his immensely influential radio show on BBC Radio 1. Mary Anne Hobbes of the Radio 1 Breezeblock show is also a huge supporter of Knifehandchop, and a session was recorded for her show in 2004. These radio sets were recorded during extensive tours of Europe, America and Japan that included huge festivals or dirty raves, depending on the occasion. After ÔHow I Left YouÕ was released, Knifehandchop changed his focus from releasing full-length albums to making singles and 12Ó records featuring a new sound that is tailored to the dance floor. His first production in this regard was the much-hyped booty anthem ÔDirty New YorkÕ on Tigerbeat6. Modeselektor and Knifehandchop have also teamed up for a split release on Shockout records called ÔWeed Wid Da MackaÕ which features vocals by famed Jamaican dancehall star Ninjaman. This was followed by a huge electro remix by Knifehandchop of the smash UK single ÒThou Shalt Always KillÓ by Dan Le Sac vs Scroobius Pip on Lex Records. While recording these new techno-dance records, Knifehandchop has also been throwing a series of successful over the top parties in Toronto called Math Hooker.
DuranDuranDuran
Duran Duran Duran is a breakcore band consisting of Ed Flis, Michael Chaiken, and Tony Gabor. Philadelphia-based Ed Flis is the main working member and does most live shows by himself. Like most breakcore Duran Duran Duran's music is reminiscent of the rave music of the early 1990's. However, Ed Flis admits to not being heavily influenced by the rave scene himself. Evident in both his music and his performance persona, four of his defining characteristics are heavy metal, illegal drugs, hip-hop and pornography, especially homosexual pornography. Flis often performs in a Rainbow Brite outfit with clothe pins attached to his genitalia, claiming that this inspires him to "rave harder and longer." Duran Duran Duran's music is more a reaction to the IDM's staleness than a direct continuation of early rave. As he puts it: "Rave is cheap, tossed-off, drug-damaged and rocking. IDM is pretentious, boring and not fun. In January 2005, Duran Duran Duran's full album "Very Pleasure" was the first release of Jason Forrest's Cock Rock Disco label. The album takes from hip-hop, rock and ragga and samples from 80s hits like Ace of Base, but also metal like Slayer. With a painting of two naked men frolicking in a field on the cover and song titles like "Manrammer", the album reflects Ed Flis' pseudo gay propaganda, intended to shock a more mainstream audience.
