Download: http://www.beatport.com/release/ny-raw/1105021 The three tracks on 'NY Raw' show Joeski and Audio KoDe going back to roots - Joeski's trademark tribal rhythms and percussion sit alongside deep grooved baselines and jacking 4/4 beats on 'This Goes Out To You' and 'Feel The Ruff', while 'Show You Love' takes things in a deeper and more soulful direction. Joeski states the the whole project is, "a tribute to the NYC House and Hip Hop sound - jacking, chugging, deep floor pounding!" Raised in Corona, a large Spanish area in the borough of Queens, New York, Joeski started playing house parties in 1989 and hasn't looked back since, staying true to the underground house sound throughout. Building his reputation in the early 90's at New York clubs and events like The Limelight, NASA, Save The Robots, The Chocolate Factory and Together he was soon touring the world. After building his studio and honing the craft of production at the end of the 90's, he exploded into people's attention with a series of tracks and remixes on Siesta, Tango, Electric Sol and more. He also launched his own label Maya Records, which was highly sought after from the early releases thanks to his collaborations as part of 6400 Crew and outings with Onionz and D'Julz. The label welcomed guests like Chus + Ceballos, Tony Senghore and Nick & Danny Chatelain. The early success led to remix work for the likes of Sneaker Pimps, Dajaé, Delacy, Dirty Vegas, Medway and DJ Sneak, and collaborations with DJ Chus, John Creamer and Stephan K, Steve Smith (Dirty Vegas) and Matthias Heilbronn. The results have graced labels such as Hooj Choons, NRK, Ministry, Stealth and Junior Boys Own. Like the city he calls home, New York's own Ody Roc - also known as 'Audio KoDe' - never seems to slow down. Behind the decks his energy level is infectious - whether dropping the latest house bombs in the world's top dance clubs, headlining exclusive industry parties, or unleashing insane turntablist tricks at sold-out stadium tours. The Nineties saw Ody come into his own, honing his turntable skills and representing his motherland Greece as the national champion and finalist in the 1998 DMC World DJ Championships. He was hand-picked by Diddy to open the 2000 'Bad Boy Tour', dazzling concert audiences across 3 continents for over a year. On the House music side, he holds an established residency at Cavo Paradiso on Mykonos', spending every summer alongside the likes of Carl Cox, Dubfire and Danny Tenaglia. In the studio, Audio KoDe started making his mark in 2011 with his debut 'The Future', featuring remixes from Cevin Fisher and Honey Dijon. His collaboration with Joeski has led to subsequent outings for MUM, Kinetika and King Street. https://www.imahousegangster.com https://www.facebook.com/imahousegangster https://www.soundcloud.com/im-a-house-gangster
