From the Turbo Recordings site:

"Popof is a French DJ/composer/arranger hailing from the Rave Party scene.

A previous member of the underground collective 'Heretik', he has participated to numerous events throughout France, Europe, the Middle-East, Asia, and so forth.

Today, he stresses his preference towards minimal techno and electro. His EP, ´Alcoolic', released on the label AFU LTp in 2007 was a huge success.

He has produced high-profile remixes such as ´Bells of Brighton' on CR2 records, 'Emotional Distortion' on Audio Therapy, and the Beatport #1 hit remix of Tiga & Zyntherius 'Sunglasses At Night'.

Popof is also featured on various labels such as Turbo, Skryptom, Afu Ltd, Notorious Elektro, and Boxer Recordings, and is playlisted by many reknowned artists: Ricardo Villalobos, John Digweed, Sasha, Luciano, & Tiesto."




On Turbo Recordings, he is one of many notable artists, including Tiga, Chromeo, Proxy, Boys Noize, D.I.M., Duke Dumont and Brodinski. Anytime we drop any of his tracks live, people go apeshit. Here's some samplers:

Artist of the Day: Propa Tingz

Propa Tingz, aka BreakBeatBuddha, originally from the UK, now holds it down in the Bay Area. His style is described as, "a devious, bass-heavy blend of Breaks and glitched-out, Dancehall vibes for the Headz." He's collaborated with some big artists like KRS 1, Bassnectar, Busta Rhymes, Mala Rodriguez and Beenie Man. He's widely known as the pioneer of 'Glitch-Step' - a combo of Bay Area Hyphy, Dirty South Crunk, UK Bass and Glitch. Check out this vid from his last tour:


(yea, you should probably be tripping for full effect - but still nice vid)

Here's a couple tracks to get to know Propa Tingz:

Lil Wayne - A Milli [Propa Tingz ill tingz remix]

Now that there are 999 remixes of this song, I believe this makes 1,000 - and it's definitely one of the heaviest.

FreQ Nasty vs Propa Tingz - Peacemaker [dub]

This track was originally showcased on FreQ Nasty's FABRICLIVE.42 mix.


Here's the main attraction - another gem from Rob Booth's (aka Surgeon) awesome Electronic Explorations radio show - an exclusive Propa Tingz mix.
