Kissy Sell Out is a DJ, producer and graphic designer from Colchester, Essex who emerged from the MySpace generation of cool nerds and sonic visionaries. Renowned for his eccentric electro productions and energetic DJ style Kissy is now one of the hottest club DJs, producers and remixers with Mixmag describing him as “one of the most exciting, charismatic and entertaining DJs of the decade”. If that wasn’t enough, Kissy runs his own label called San City Highand has a weekly radio show on BBC Radio 1 every Thursday night bringing listeners the best in jump up rock and rave.

With a string of successful singles already under his belt (‘Her’ and ‘Rikkalicious’ to name a few) Kissy is now ready to unleash his debut album ‘Youth’. Featuring 11 tracks- inspired by his early years and misdemeanours – Kissy takes you on a journey through his childhood memories, with influences from Gary Newman, Scritti Politti, Simple Minds, Sonic Youth and Armand Van Helden to excite you.

Kissy Sell Out’s “Youth” will be released on San City High/ADA Global Ltd on 22nd March and is also available in all good record stores and online via itunes and all good digital stores.

This mix that Kissy Sell Out gave us is kinda hard to put into any particular genre, but it’s got a bit of Indie, a bit of Electro, and a bit of Fidgety House. We’ll give it a new genre and just call it Kissy. On your way out check out this cool interview with Kissy Sell Out on Hypeaddict and go get the new CD.

With over 3000 entries in the NGDJ competition spanning 3 months and garnering almost 200,000 votes the winner was just announced. Congrats to May Vanya from New Zealand via Coatia. The winner was chosen based on not only mixing and track selection but also music production, visual presentation and general artist potential. It seems like the 3 winners definitely lean more towards a deeper housey kinda vibe. Hopefully next year we can see a bit more genre variety with the winners.

According to the jury, Croatian sister duo Maya Vanya “are intriguing in a ’what‘s next?‘ way” and “have proven themselves by mixing their own masterfully laid out edits” with “a big room friendly tech house sound ready for next generation dancefloors everywhere.”
