CONTROL 07.23.10 – Klever // Jokers of the Scene // Steed Lord July 23, 2010

KLEVER

Klever has been all over. From Japan to Australia to Los Angeles, Josh Winkler (AKA DJ Klever) has toured the world since winning the USA DMC Championships back to back in 2000 and 2001. At the time dubbed “Tomorrow’s DJ,” Klever has continued to evolve his skills, and is now most definitely the man of today. His signature sets combine his diverse personal influences, blending crunk and hip hop with electro, dance-rock, and more. Just try and keep pace with those scratching hands.

JOKERS OF THE SCENE

Every artist claims to defy categorization. Yet for Jokers Of The Scene, it's not a boast - it's a lifestyle.

Whether stitching together club bangers that double as shoegaze epics, dousing pop songs in the deepest of acid, or simply cranking the techno knob until it hits "berzerk," these skilled DJ/producers have crafted a gleefully anarchic discography without peer. Their path is as much a choice as a compulsion; the duo blazes the JOTS trail at all times, and this determinedly tweaked approach has fueled sweat-soaked gigs from Brazil to Berlin, while providing direction for countless remixes (from Kid Cudi and Passion Pit to Brodinski and Count & Sinden) and signature originals like the anthemic "Baggy Bottom Boys."

Their new Fool's Gold single "Revolting Joks" is the latest in the (un)natural creative progression that has endeared JOTS to fans and fellow DJs around the globe, a kinky bass monster that unfolds into haunted house piano riffs and surging synth blasts for a clever, dark and massive big-room treat. The lone remix comes courtesy of fellow club oddball Boy 8-Bit, whose addictive, loopy tech-house take is a perfect compliment to the original.

Step into the black light, and get ready to be surprised by Ottawa's finest once again...
