FM4 Unlimited with WILDLIFE!
Switzerland's 'enfant terrible', DJ and producer WILDLIFE! came to public attention in a sudden fury of press and blogs ranging from NY Times, Fader, The Guardian, The Independent, VICE, XLR8R, URB, Rolling Stone, etc... for his unanimously praised musical productions on Terry Lynnʼs stunning debut-album Kingstonlogic 2.0. Press keeps trying to coin a name for an 'emerging genre', be it 'Digital-Dancehall' or 'Jamaican-Electro-Punk' ... but he simply describes it as "sort of like... putting a Jamaican cat in a blender feet first and turning up the bass to balance out the noise."
With his raw and bloody sound WILDLIFE! is now mixing up a storm with his peers and colleagues, producing remixes for the likes of Ghislain Poirier, the Londoner Tropical pioneers Radioclit or the French Finnish Pop-Duo The Dø.
Rumoured to be working on his debut album he's concurrently creating pandemonium in clubs across the globe with his genre-bending DJ sets.
WILDLIFE! setlist
"I kicked it off with early 70's dancehall material, went on with some of Terry Lynn's recent work including her new single Jamaican Girls from The Fader & Red Stripe campaign. Moved on with
a bunch of uptempo carribbean flavoured electronica gems and finally rounded it up with Bow Wow Wow's Golly! Golly! Go Buddy!, tropical madness from 1981... one of my absolute all time favourites."
