Best things come to those who wait and Sirkus Sirkuz from The Japanese Popstars (& formally Hedrock Valley Beats) knows about this fundamental trait down to a tee. Spread across eight platforms of techno and progressive guided formulas, Sirkus Sirkuz’s maharishi skills are written in acid house ink and set upon electro parchment paper. Tech-tastic past the point of overrated electronica and 24-hour-rushed edits, Decky Hedrock (aka Sirkus Sirkuz ) throws down the best techno attacks you’ll hear all this calendar month. Tracklisting : “Kick Radio DJ Mix” – [...]

With MTV's European Music Awards coming from Belfast in 2011 and the commemorative commotion marking the Titanic's centenary the cultural spotlight of recent years hasn't strayed too far from Northern Ireland's capital. The country's second city however has long-awaited its turn and having been bestowed the status of the inaugural UK City of Culture for 2013, Derry-Londonderry's year is nearly here. As far as the Maiden City's music is concerned, it's hard to pinpoint a time in history when the Derry walls quartered such an immense fortune of ability enjoying deserved recognition from home and away. Which [...]
Sirkus Sirkuz’s next two displays follow up a plethora’s worth of ultimate power-play tunage. Sirkuz continues to make his unique sound, oh so subtle. Outstanding. SIRKUS SIRKUZ – Redenk (Destroy Bootleg Vocal) SIRKUS SIRKUZ – Forgiveness
With MTV's European Music Awards coming from Belfast last year and the commemorative commotion marking the Titanic's centenary the cultural spotlight of recent years hasn't strayed too far from Northern Ireland's capital. The country's second city however has long-awaited its turn and having been bestowed the status of the inaugural UK City of Culture for 2013, Derry-Londonderry's year is finally just around the corner. As far as the Maiden City's music is concerned, it's hard to pinpoint a time in history when the Derry walls quartered such an immense fortune of ability enjoying deserved recognition from home [...]
Brisbane’s head chef in all things succulent and floor-filling has been a feverish busy chappie recently. Partially overdue on awarding this guy the crown for memorable modern day disco remixes, 95 Royale’s arousing stance across his ‘One More Time’ palladium bomb and his ‘The Lost Jackson Files’ track, retains a highly emotive grip that demonstrates why disco will never die - and the inspiration behind it will remain forever immortal. ‘Lonely Nights’ brings things down a wee tad for a glorified and non-cheesy pop-disco dance-off; alongside an outstanding “Downtown Mouse EP” that sticks a bit of poisonous cheese into [...]
Comprehensive in their originality and relentless in their own direction of audio-handles, The Japanese Popstars do what only a few manage to accomplish expertly – and that is to remix a Daft Punk Original into a different and most optimum change of initial direction. TJPs’ ‘Steve Mcqueen’ re-rub is a powerhouse of familiar rollin’ riffs and 4/4 acid thrust which opens a heads down dancin’ vortex of smoky filled rooms and aluminium cladding walls that have sweat embedded in their DNA structure. ‘Pump Power’ is a MARRS endorsed world class teaser - finalized by a slight ‘Matter Of Time’ revival [...]
Whilst kissin’ the girls and makin’ them cry, Decky Hedrock (from The Japanese Popstars) has embarked on a solo project of self discovery where is goal is to continue developing new techniques through his ever nurturing sound and to cement this vision under his side project mantle called Sirkus Sirkuz . Being seen as an unconditional loved-up mission, Sirkus Sirkuz aims to be a body of nurture and an embodiment of growth over time. With several releases already available through GND Records, Skint Records and 9G Records, there are a few more productions up [...]
M83 are pleased to announce the release of their next single, “Steve McQueen”,on November 27th. For the video, the band decided to draw from their biggest inspiration & support system-the fans themselves. Partnering with Genero.tv, Anthony Gonzalez selected French Director Balthazar Auxietre + Animator Sylvain Derosne’s (who has also collaborated with Spike Jonze) unique vision of a world honoring the “power of childhood, an eagerness for life, & the kind of paradoxical energy you have when you grow up.” Auxietre describes M83’s overall body of work as “…a sound of his [...]

The Japanese Popstars' Gary Curran shares his 5 favorite things.
After scorching the earth for the last two years, Belgium brothers Dimtri Vegas & Like Mike are bringing their fire to Pacha this Thursday as part of their ‘Smash the House’ North American Tour. With two Tomorrowland anthems under their belt and three current tracks in the Beatport charts, the duo will surely be bringing the house down. Come see why they have been headlining sets at global hotspots like Ministry of Sound and Pacha Ibiza all summer. The boys will be supported by The Japanese Popstars , an Irish [...]
When you decide on enlisting part of the super-power group / former global band known as Faithless; in the shape of Sister Bliss on one of your remixes, then that can only be a great thing. Teasing us with their ‘Dark Obsession’ also, the choice of any Japanese Popstars DJ mix comes along like four Number 10 buses all arriving in at once.
The Japanese Popstars sound like they’re celebrating their own private version of an Olympic Closing Ceremony on this latest rendition folks. Elbow and TJP make a unanimous hair-raising decision that’s full of thunderous choral groups and one silent barbershop quartet.
It’s been a while since we’ve had an ample dose of Orlando’s favourite duo, Trick Folexxx , and we’re certainly pleased with the results. Focused on their own blend of blaring tribal horns and raising crowd screams / arpeggio-phasers, Trick Folexxx begin this August month of 2012 with a bona fide winner. The Japanese Popstars follow alongside these men in equal fashion by partnering up with the legend known as Green Velvet for a track called ‘Matter Of Time.’ Put together in May 2012 and then used as the official anthem for the 2012 International Music [...]
Forthcoming on an unplanned release date, the beautiful vocals of Stephanie Dosen join The Japanese Popstars for a euphoric and melodic journey through global magnitudes.
Man, I love Glasgowbury . I've been going to the festival every year since 2004, making this my 9th year in a row. That's actually pretty scary, and I kind of wish I hadn't thought about it. Anyway, moving on... In case you don't know what Glasgowbury is, it's a brilliant music festival that takes place at the foot of the Sperrin mountains in Draperstown every year. It features the best Northern Irish and Irish bands, and as a day it has one of the highest craic counts of the whole year (a 'craic count' is like [...]
