Attention! Focus!
Two of New York City's most innovative party collectives, #LTNS and Essentic, have combined forces to present the hottest jumpoff of October, 2014.
This collaboration of #LTNS and Essentic can be compared to Gotenks–the fusion of Trunks and Goten that can pulverize any dull, Majin Buu-like parties threatening the landscape. Why? 'Cause we're presenting two of Seoul, Korea's best DJs, KINGMCK of DEADND and YTST of 360 Sounds & OVRTHS. "Who?" You ask? For those that don't know, allow us to make the intro below:
• KINGMCK (KING-MACK)
As the de-facto face of the new generation of Korean DJs/producers, KINGMCK is the leader/co-founder of Seoul's hottest DJ collective, DEADND. Throughout his career, which only started in the late aughts, he has performed alongside world-famous artists such as Fatboy Slim, DJ Premier, Snoop Dogg, ASAP Rocky, Psy, Justice, Boys Noize, Major Lazer, Surkin, and Jimmy Edgar.
He also dons the producer title, showcasing progressive sound that has earned him support from many world-class dance labels that include BNR, Dirtybird, Ultramajic, Mad Decent, and Fool's Gold. K-pop powerhouse SM Entertainment has also sought after him to remix tracks by Girls' Generation, Super Junior, and SHINee.
• YTST (Y•T•S•T)
Started out as a member of the world-famous 360 Sounds (headed by DJ Souslcape), YTST (short for Yong-tae the BEST) has recently set off movements of his own as the leader of the OVRTHS (OVER•THOSE) collective–a sonically diverse unit of producers and DJs that spearhead the sound of hip-hop, trap, and footwork in Korea.
Many consider him the President of Seoul, Itaewon's thriving underground music scene, due to his prominent presence at the internationally known music venue Cakeshop. Throughout his career, he has performed alongside hip-hop legends DJ Premier, DJ Jazzy Jeff, J. Rocc, DJ Craze, Large Professor, and Just Blaze. In more recent years, he has shared the booth with some of underground's best new talents–Esta of Soulection, Falcons, Nick Hook of Fool's Gold, Mike Gao, and starRo. Some of YTST's most recognized musical projects include the Notorious B.I.G. Tribute Mix, which garnered coverage on XXL and Ego Trip. His remix of Jay-Z's "Public Service Announcement" landed on Just Blaze's Wig Splitters 1 mixtape. In addition, he has crafted soundtracks for international fashion house Juun.J, sportswear brand Nike, and K-pop label YG Entertainment.
In addition to the certified guests from Seoul, each crew's respective DJs (MJ of #LTNS and Jinetic of Essentic) will hold down the fort. Expect to not only get lit with the finest selection of house, disco, hip-hop, trap, ratchet, and twerk, but also witness what Seoul's best talents have to offer.
