Weird Science
Well I've recently been able to get in touch with DJ Santero, who until now was somehow under my seemingly infinite radar. I'll tell you up front that I regret that because what I've heard so far is great. I'm going to be talking about his new label 'Weird Science' which was started by him and Pete Jordan. The reason behind the project is that both of them were fed up with being signed to other labels and having their music put on the back burner forever, so they've started their own to control when things are released which is really important. Electronic music is constantly being innovated and moving forward, every song is another step forward and the sooner it's released the faster it grows so I'm really glad, and I hope to definitely see more stuff like this happening and seeing Weird Science make alot of big steps forward in the coming year.
The label will mostly focus on bass driven house music, much like Santero's own stuff (but that will expand to other genres as the label grows), and right now most of the releases are from Jordan and Santero and remixes coming out soon. Artists that can be expected to be doing these remixes are The Elementz who are behind some really great work on Mad Decent as well as Ursa Major of Trouble and Bass. The remixers are also going to be the ones who DJ at Weird Science events.
These events so far have been getting a whole lot of attention, all of them packed. The third is going to be going down Saturday December 10th at 93 Feet East, Brick Lane E1 (London) from 6pm till 1am. Free entry and BBQ happening in the courtyard and food all night. The parties have had themes of 80's cult films so far and this next one will be Gremlins by the looks of it, and the movie will be showing in room two - everywhere else will be too devastated by the bass that the lineup is going to be tossing around. The DJ's for the night are going to be Jordan & Santero joined by The Elementz, followed by a slew of artists from SHELTERED starting at 7:30 and carrying on until 1am.

I've got a video clip via youtube of the new release Cali Blues right here too, so be sure to check that out. Also look for Cali Pinks!
Well, now that I've covered everything you'd need to know about the new label - how about I share some of what it'll sound like? I've got 5 tracks, all of them are great chill party jams. Included is the promo mix of Sexy Mofo as well as the clean cut and the super dub cut. If you like what you hear check out Jordan & Santero here: https://www.facebook.com/jordanandsantero
Get Out Of Jail Free Series by Santero
And lastly, here are a few tracks from Santero, Pete Jordan, and a short mix by The Elementz featuring Hudson Mohawke, Diamond Bass, and if I'm not mistaken I think Blue Effect, whom I haven't heard in some time. Excellent chill-bass, perfect for parties or just driving around. Keep your eyes out for releases from these guys and make sure to check everyone out on Facebook to show them some love for all of the brilliant music and hard work.
