80kidz

80kidz emerged from the borderless youth culture of Japan.
However, their music makes it seem that it may not even matter that they are actually from Japan. They’ve already performed with the likes of Justice, Busy P, Boys Noize, Teenage Bad Girl, Hot Chip, and Bobmo. And, Isn’t it more interesting to be witness to where their music is going to take you and where they are already going with their music?

They began their activities making music as a three-piece DJ unit in early 2007 when releasing their own limited bootleg mix CD “The KidzAre Alnight No. 1” in February of 2007. This mix sold-out rapidly and requests for DJ appearances quickly followed.
“The Kidz Are Alnight No.2” continued things further forward for them. By the time they announce their unofficial remixes on their Myspace website in the Summer various music blog websites such as Kidz By Colette begin to pick up on them and these remixes and their music begins to get blogged, discussed, and circulate around the world. This attention builds even further with their posting an original track “Disdrive” which followed in the form of official remix requests pouring in from the Shoes, Quiero Club, When Saints Go Machine, The Glammers, and Futurecop. Even their remix of Yelle that they did for fun featured seventh place in the “Ce Jeu” remix contest on her blog website.

They released their very first 12-inch single “Disdrive ep” in March of 2008. “Disdrive” has already been charted by various DJs as being one of their favorite songs of 2007 and the single will also feature the already popular track “Fxxk Fox” which Autokraz has even been playing out a lot. · close
