The two massive remixes by Ben Kama and Defence are finally out. Ben Kama’s remix of my track Reach For The Stars is a really dope dancefloor track. Defence’s remix of “One Still Remains” is a perfect liquid dnb roller. I’m really feeling both of these tracks and I’m so glad that they’re finally out on In Da Jungle -recordings. Thanks to Ben Kama and Defence for the remixes, much appreciated!
My new “Spider” EP was released earlier this week on Indajungle recordings including 4 tracks:

The featured artist and their tracks here at mineral.fi get even more promotion now, as the first flyers and posters are finished and printed out. I actually handed quite a lot of these to the people at the kongocrew party a while ago… 🙂
The Mineral.fi -graffiti logo in the corner is by my very good friend, a really talented concept artist Jesse van Dijk. Check out Jesse’s amazing works at his portfolio.
This week is very special to me as the group of junglists from Finland, Kongocrew, is celebrating its 10-year-birthday. I’ve been a member since 2001, and I want to honour this event with my 2010 VIP of the classic “Kongo Tune” by Esc:
Esc – Kongo Tune (Mineral 2010 VIP) [download www.mineral.fi_free008]]
Esc alias Juha Riipinen is a DJ/Producer hailing from Tampere, Finland. This guy has been fiddling with music since he was a kid. Esc has explored various styles from punk to techno but after hearing Super Sharp Shooter and Square Off at the mid-90’s, there has not been a question though, what music he loves the best.
Since late 90’s Esc has contributed to the scene also as a DJ. In the year 2000 he co-founded the first ever weekly d&b club in Finland with DJ Beyond from Kongocrew and has later played at various clubs and events with the likes of Seba, Noisia, Loxy, Sabre and SpectraSoul to name but a few. Esc is also part of the Pressure cru which runs Pressure, one of the longest standing d&b clubs in Finland.
I’ve been producing, DJ’ing and arranging dnb events with Esc for years now. This 2010 VIP of Esc’s classic Kongo Tune is made for the celebration of the 10 years of Kongocrew! Hope you enjoy it. I’m gonna play the track for sure next friday at the party!
ESC – LOST AND FOUND + MINERAL REMIX FORTHCOMINGÂ ON IDJ
I’m happy to announce that Esc’s track Lost And Found will be shortly out on Indajungle recordings with my remix of the track.
Personally, the years with Kongocrew mean a lot to me and I’ve had the time of my life with the crew. Now it’s time to celebrate the successful years and spin all the greatest tracks next Friday at the Cut club @ Tampere Yo-talo.
