Making Waves Underground Podcast 042 - Fouk by Making Waves Underground

This months Making Waves Underground radio show on Deepvibes Radio was packed with lots of groove, funk, soul, house and disco as we welcomed Daniel Leseman and Hans Peeman from the awesome Fouk to join us for the Guest Mix.

They have been on our radar for some time now and finally had some space in their hectic schedule to supply us with an hours mix for the show and podcast.

With roots are firmly set in the Netherlands ever since they became partners in crime at high school in Nijmegen. Hans took his hand to creative drawing and later this artistic flare started to pay his bills as he became a graphic designer, Daniel’s obsession with music at a young age led him to study sound design and music production. Both the boys ear for music started at a young age and they would sneak up into the attic to play the vinyl they’d collected, annoying the parents as every good child does. Electronic circuits and noise making machines were their next project, until music production became a real possibility.

Daniel started producing dance music under the name 3 Colours and has been using his own name for a few years now, while continuing to teach sound design in Amsterdam, and Hans makes music as Junktion; but their childhood days brought them to collaborating in the studio and the Fouk project was born.

Their first vinyl release as Fouk, on their label Outplay was met with critical acclaim with brilliant reactions to ‘Stuff Your Dad Liked’ and ‘Cat Lady’. Following swiftly on, they produced a formidable remix for Lay-Far on the Swedish Local Talk Records Records. After Detroit Swindle signed them to their Heist Recordings imprint with their very successful Kill Frenzy EP and doing remixes for the likes of Kraak & Smaak and Razor-N-Tape, they gained a lot of attention. With multiple EP’s and remixes coming up, starting with the current Heavy On The Bacon EP on Dairmount’s Room With A View imprint, it’s going to be a very promising year for the guys.
