Ou Est La Swimmingpool

Last weekend Music lost one of its own. A vibrant, boundary pushing electronic artist on the cusp of greatness. Lead singer from Ou Est La Swimmingpool, Charles Haddon, sadly died. The details about how or why this happened are a mess of reasons that can be talked about but can't be changed.
One of the last things Ou Est La Swimming Pool worked on was a remix for Gung Ho!'s own Losers. Eddy from Losers is friends with the band as well as being a massive fan so is like everyone else deeply saddened.

We want to give a way this epic remix they did for us. We want to get their music out to as many people as possible and show what a stunning remix they created. I thoughts go out the family and the band.

Disco of Doom AKA London-based DJ and production duo Tom Real and Ben Medcalf have done it again with this EP. The second release signed to Gung-Ho! is pushing the electro house sound to the limit! Engine is obvious kick in the face to regular and mundane music being put out! Real engine noised arranged to make your body contort and shake in a way that only DoD can do. Sex Face is bigger room stuff than what we expect but shows off their skills in producing bombs!

Already their previous EP’s have drawn enthusiastic support from a mixed bag of DJs such as AutoKratz, Etienne De Crecy, Alex Metric, DJ Zinc, Doorly, Fake Blood, Mason, Rex The Dog through to Pete Tong, Groove Armada, Axwell, The Crystal Method and many more.

On the remix front, the duo have been busy tearing apart artists like Diddy (Interscope), Crookers, (Southern Fried) James Yuill (Moshi Moshi), Kele (Witchita) Silver Columns (Moshi Moshi), David E Sugar (Sunday Best) Ou Est Le Swimming Pool, Etienne De Crecy (Pixadelic), Swen Webber (Taste/d) and many more. Their recent remix of Buckfunk 3000’s classic High Volume (Future Perfect) drew support on UK national radio support on Radio 1 from Toddla T and Annie Nightingale whilst their rework of early 90’s rave classic ‘Close Your Eyes’ by Acen has one support from Kissy Sell Out, Toddla, Fatboy Slim and many more.

Gung Ho! Front Line Troops Vol 1....

Today we release the first of out new series of EP's. Front Line Troops is designed to bring in new talent to the Gung Ho! fold. At Gung Ho! we love all kinds of aural electronica which is why we have never pigeon holed ourselves as a Electro or Tech House house label. We plan on making this series a selection of underground music taking the pick from all sides of house and techno.

This opener has the 3 artist who have the talent to go far in each of there genre's of house!

Welfare For The Digital are 2 DJ/Producers brought together purely by the rave and love of electronic noises in the dark! Ben Francis and Martin Holden have been DJing together since the 90's at various different locations (House parties at Notting Hill Carnival to Loft Raves in New York as well as night clubs across the UK!) There productions are forward thinking party tech house. They are not apposed to editing there own video clips as well... Check Out 'Flight Of The Navigator' by clicking through here and the video for Rat Race Here -



The second artist involved in in Vol 1 is Robert Cashin. Robert is a Welsh DJ/Producer/Promoter extraordinaire! Robert has release on a verity of labels before but has given Gung Ho! this special EP! Roberts love for the deeper side of house shines through on both these records. Reptile has a awesome kick to it that is suited for a set where a secret weapon is required! Reflections is a real groover and is perfect for the warm up.

Third on the bill is Superstringz aka Se Ozmen. These two tracks are both special in their chilled production. 'Some Kind Of Rock' uses a wicked guitar riff for the hook and works a laid back house track around it where as 'Nine' is one for the beach and to be used dureing the sunset set!!!

Pick up the whole EP exclusively on Beatport now or just pick and choose which ever takes your fancy! Click here to get to the EP

LOSERS SIGN TO GUNG HO!!

We announced the signing of Losers the other week and now that the news is public its been reported in the CMU news with some kind words from the band:

LOSERS SIGN TO GUNG-HO!
Losers, aka DJ, producer and radio presenter Eddy Temple-Morris and former Cooper Temple Clause man Tom Bellamy, have become the latest signing to Gung-Ho! Recordings, also home to The Japanese Popstars and Burn The Negative, amongst others. The duo will release their debut album through the label later this year.

Speaking about the signing, Temple-Morris told CMU: "Matt from Gung-Ho! doesn't so much sign bands as enter into an extended love affair with them. To be signed to a label like that is, for me, the dream come true, and to be stablemates with The Japanese Popstars and Burn The Negative is just the icing on the best chocolate cake ever".

Losers' co-manager, Steve Sethlewaite of Hope Management added: "Co-managing the act with Sean Holbrook for the HDM Group, we've been keen to find the appropriate partners for Eddy and Tom's album. The passion Gung-Ho! has shown for the music rather than the guys' related histories was hugely refreshing. Culturally Losers sit well on Gung-Ho! And it's maximised by the fact that everyone involved is ultra keen and excited to be working together".

Losers have various live dates coming up, including appearances at the Latitude and Lovebox festivals. Their first single for the label will be 'Sirenna (Today We See Colour)' on 6 Sep, followed by the album on 13 Sep.
