Hot on the heels of two previous remixes in collaboration with Sweden’s Cave Kings, including a remix of Capitol Cities’ “Safe and Sound” that Arjan Writes called “a massive party anthem that EDM fans will salivate over,” KTown Shekki is set to drop a new remix for their Korean brethren, Far East Movement, as part of the group’s remix EP for “Illist”.
KTown Shekki’s first outing was a remix collaboration with Cave Kings on Avicii’s “Wake Me Up” (ft. Aloe Blacc). Their second track, a remix of Capital Cities’ summertime hit,“Safe and Sound,” quickly hit the Hype Machine charts and, climging to #5 Most Popular Track on Twitter in late August.
KTown Shekki is a new production crew hailing from Koreatown in Los Angeles.
Using karaoke rooms as their studio, Casios swung over their shoulders, this loose collective of LA natives has emerged from a rising underground K-Town electronic scene, mashing up their favorite pop hits with grinding electronic beats and a no holds barred attitude that is reflected in the name: “shekki” means “punk” in Korean.
Known for their uplifting melodies and massive drops, Dominic Dremel and Michael Elliott, a.k.a. Savagez are anchored in Big Room Electro and Progressive House. Their self-titled debut EP (Eden Recordings) was released on Beatport in August.
