JUICE Diabolically Big Guide to FMFA ’13
ACTS + STAGES
Gnome Stage
Gnome features a mixture of live acts (in hip hop) and DJs (in EDM). This one is equally for ol skool hip hop heads and ravers.
Eva T [MY]
Your dad’s favourite DJ (assuming your dad is sleazy) and the diva of the south, Eva-T is a maestro at blending r’n’b with electro tunes. She was also picked by us as the Best New DJ of 2010. www.djevat.com
Naughty By Nature [US]
Old school heads, tired of the swag generation? Well, we’re not, but goddamn, we love us some hip hop hooray. Naughty by Nature will be celebrating the 20th year anniversary of their most well-loved track ‘Hip Hop Hooray’. You down with Naughty? Yeah, you know me! www.naughtybynature.com
Joe Flizzow [MY]
Joe Flizzow is bringing his whole Kartel to FMFA13, hopefully giving the sort of hip hop performance that has the stage filled up by the whole kampong. www.kartellohello.com
De La Soul [US]
Unequivocally JUICE’s personal favourite hip hop group of a bygone era, De La Soul had the foresight to outgrow a movement that was in hindsight, quite blinkered. Evolved, they recorded De La Soul is Dead – an album that was defined a generation beyond its own genre. www.facebook.com/wearedelasoul
Shut Da Mouth [KR]
Purportedly the most explosive export from the Far East after gunpower, South Korean duo Shut Da Mouth (Beejay and Mindbender) pioneered the Korean club scene. Spinning house, electro, d’n’b, and techno, their impeccable technique and mixing skills have left many detractors’ mouths shut. www.SHUTDAMOUTH.com
Sidney Samnson [AU]
Powerhouse DJ, pun intended, Sidney Samson has been DJing since 13, taking a liking to hip hop before moving to the genre he is now known for; house. Despite claiming to have retired from house DJing and will only host MC performances now, he is slated to perform at FMFA13. We’ll see how it’s gonna be like. www.sidneysamson.com
Angger Dimas [ID]
Cosigned by Aoki himself, Dim Mak’s Angger Dimas is a true blue EDM superstar hailing from Indonesia, and as his geographical neighbour and proud Asians ourselves, we can’t help but feel pride too. This genre-defying DJ is set to show FMFA13 his whatever-goes-will-go playlist ethos. anggerdimas.com
Andy Moor (DJ) [UK]
Andy Moor is a trance and progressive Producer DJ. He has used multiple aliases in the past and has been part of Indigo, Leama & Moor, Lewis & Moor, Tilt, Whiteroom, and Zoo DJ’s. www.andymoor.com
Goldfish & Blink [MY]
Possibly the first local DJ duo who could make it big internationally, Goldfish & Blink are already the first mainstream superstar DJs in Malaysia. We named them Best Local DJ(s) 2012 for good reasons. www.facebook.com/goldfishandblink
