Gonzo returns from the excellent dub odyssey and drops us a fierce Happy Birthday SYNDICATE! mix featuring tracks from Antipop Consortium, Foreign Beggers, Tha Trickaz, Tokimonsta & Mt Kimbie. We can’t stop this guy’s awesome selection!

Come early to the next SYNDICATE on 5th Feb 2011 @ Homeclub and catch his debut set. We want his crate!

What better way to wind down after a crazy year of beats, bassbins and vibes than to have a year-end mix prepared for us by the one and only Gonzo, SYNDICATE’s unofficial favourite downtempo DJ! Slip this mix on, turn down the lights, turn up the bass and drift into dub bliss…

About Gonzo

adj. [ˈgän-(ˌ)zō]

1. idiosyncratically subjective but engagé
2. freewheeling or unconventional especially to the point of outrageousness
3. bizarre, weird, crazy, eccentric

Gonzo is all about discovering strange things that have been ignored and rediscovering old things that have been forgotten. A regular flea market enthusiast in all the countries he calls home (Mexico, France, Singapore to name only the last three), he looks for forgotten music, unknown films, discarded photos or abandoned furniture, and always manages to transform them into something appealing.

The sun is up and Nocando does it freestyle on a cliff while hanging out with his Bomb Zombies partner, DJ Nobody, and the SYNDICATE crew. We’ve been checking the waves so Bali we’re gonna hit you on Friday and
Singapore, hang on in there till Saturday.

This little froggy greeted us at our Bali villa when we arrived. It was doing a welcome swim around the pool and with our noble intentions, we left it alone. Little did we know that it was actually trying to get out of the water.

We found Froggy flat on the pool floor when we got up the next morning. So here’s a beat in memory of Froggy.

Jeremy Boon, resident at Velvet Underground, takes us on a deep soul journey with timeless grooves and a good dose of classic disco grooves thrown in. It’s a super crafted mix that’s always on repeat on our speakers.

Includes tracks from Sly & Robbie, Black Pocket, Kutmah, Milanese, Starkey, Tokimonsta and Flight Of The Conchords.

Here’s a 320kpbs 4/4 original production from Case’s extensive music archive. After nearly two decades of pure electronic music and genre experimentation, Case has come one full circle to return to his roots.

Don’t miss his live set this Sat – 1st May @ Home Club alongside Kiat, DJ Shellsuit and Rafi Dean.

DJ Shellsuit from Pushin’On plays SYNDICATE 05 on 1st May @ Home Club. Most of you would be familiar with his boogie, funk and soul. For SYNDICATE 05, he drops into the world of abstract beats and spacey melodies.

Here’s a mini mix for your iPod or walkman (if you’re transferring it to tape for that analog feel). See you on Saturday!

Featuring the sounds of Chymera, Four Tet, Moderat, Brackles and Joy Orbison.

Dizz1 from Sydney shows us a little something for the beat heads out there. Having attended RBMA (Red Bull Music Academy) in Barcelona last year, he’s definitely one to watch with mad props from Mary Anne Hobbs to Benji B.

Check his MySpace and show him some love. Did we forget to mention that he’ll be coming to a SYNDICATE gig near you?
