Deadbeat FM
Under Control

Single ZA 2011 on Teknotribe Records label
Dance (Techno)

Deadbeat FM first release on Teknotribe digital. The Deadbeat FM DJ/Producer duo is dedicated to bringing a vulgar new sound to the techno scene. They are the unholy union of notorious psy-trance scoundrel, Deliriant (Shane), with several international releases under his belt, and Johnny Rook (Piers), the shady breaks peddler from the seediest bars downtown. The Deadbeat FM sound is not tied down by genre, but delves mostly into the grimy underworld of minimal and tech house; making use of dirty bass lines, fat kicks and huge drums & percussion, often with a driving yet minimalist undertone. Being the first South African outfit to make it onto the exclusive UK record label LOT49, the Cape town based duo is making waves internationally. The hit EP "When I get outta here" spent over a week on Beatport as the Number 1 download of LOT49, and is still sitting pretty in the Top 10 at the moment. As of late, Deadbeat FM are influenced by the crossover sounds dominated by the likes of Kid Blue, D-Nox and Beckers, Wehbba, Perfect Stranger, Khainz, Miki Litvak etc. If you haven't yet had the guilty pleasure of vibrating to Deadbeat FM airwaves, be sure to stay tuned. Keep it deadly.
