AGENT ORANGE DJ: Recent Episodes
AGENT ORANGE DJ
Stay Young. Love Techno. is the ideology that perfectly represents the energy of Agent Orange DJ. Not just aimed at a specific genre but an attitude, a code to live by where our passion for the things we love keeps us connected to our own youthful energy. Having cut his teeth during the legendary 90’s era raves and clubs in his native New York City, he has proven himself over the years as a pioneer and architect of modern day dance music. He’s spent the last 25+ years pushing a sound that holds true to the raw unfiltered soul of his youth with a decidedly modern flair. He has had 70+ releases and tracks that have landed in the Beatport Main and Techno Top100 charts 7 of which rose to #1 and 20+ in the Top 10 for labels such as Tronic, Elevate, Toolroom, Bitten, Nervous, Deeperfect, and Terminal M. His thumping hypnotic grooves have captivated the most discerning ears in the industry and led him to remix the legendary Carl Cox, who set off his 2015 Ibiza residency at Space with the Agent Orange track “No FAQs” as the very first track of the season. Also DJ Rush, Ken Ishii and more recently Armand Van Helden’s “Witch Doctor” which was released on Pig&Dan’s ELEVATE label and was a smash hit in the second half of 2018, gaining support from a lot of the major DJs at the biggest festivals of the year. He also had a full length video created for it which is a rarity these days in this genre. It includes a fun cameo from Armand himself and It was premiere by Mixmag on their YouTube channel. His energetic and dynamic DJ sets seamlessly blend dark Techno vibes with groovy rhythms, which lend some soul to the driving beats he loves best. He has showcased his signature sound multiple times on the stages of EDC Las Vegas, Ultra Music Festival Miami, Electric Zoo NY, Output Brooklyn, The Zoo Project Ibiza, Space New York, Marquee New York. No stranger to global gatherings, he has brought his sets to gigs during ADE, BPM, Miami Music Week and Sonar. All this while weekly headlining at clubs across the Americas. You can hear his tunes being dropped every weekend on dance floors and DJ mixes around the world by Carl Cox, Adam Beyer, Chris Liebing, PanPot, UMEK, Joseph Capriati, Christian Smith, Monika Kruse, Paco Osuna and countless others. Living the motto “Stay Young. Love Techno.” is not an easy job! But his passion and life long commitment to grooving global dance floors has helped Agent Orange carve out his reputation as a worldclass producer and exceptional live DJ.
This is from my new series of video shorts called "Flipped out!" Where I take interviews of my favorite Techno and House music artists and DJs and flip them into tracks. Free Download on my Bandcamp.

Full Video here: https://youtu.be/zpbOn4uyA64 This is the result of being locked up with 8000+ Techno & House music records, and DJ gear, for the last 15 months! It's a Loop Station/Sampler based performance where I take loops live from the turntable and keep building and shaping the sound in the sampler/looper. There are also a few pre-recorded sounds to keep things moving. I think I will be adding this to my DJ sets in the future. It takes a lot of practice to make this living piece of art, it never sounds the same twice and it's amazing fun! This one is classic Techno, I will do some House music ones in the future as well. 01 Jeff Mills - The Bells 002 909 Open Hat 003 Jack Master - Bang The Box 004 Daft Punk - Rollin and Scratchin 005 909 Ride Cymbal 006 Josh Wink - Are You There 007 Daft Punk - Scratchin 008 The Bells - re-looped 009 909 Ride Cymbal 010 DK8 - Murder Was The Bass 011 Toolz 06 - Bleep 012 Door Slam 013 Smith & Selway - Locked Groove #2 014 Dave Clarke - Way Of Life 015 Ben Sims - B 02 Hardgrooves 001 016 Way Of Life - re-looped 017 Hardcell - B 01 Skunkworks 08 018 Strobe - Human Animal 019 Neil Landstrumm - Index Revisited 020 Into The Groove 021 Rozalla - Everybody’s Free 022 Renegade Soundwave - The Alert (RSW junglist mix) 023 Cevin Fisher - The Way We Used to Do It

https://www.beatport.com/release/witch-doktor-agent-orange-dj-2018-rework/2450221 "I have had Witch Doktor on my list of songs to rework for a very long time. Armand's original holds a very special place in my heart as it was an anthem to my early days of clubbing and raving in NYC. It was probably the first track that crossed over and united my House Head and Raver friends at the time, which I found magical. Such a club classic with its air horn and wooping. To be able to rework it from the bottom up and give it a modern flair was a real honor for me and a task I did not take on lightly! I wanted to keep the integrity and vibe of the original while giving it a modern flair. The journet it's had since I finished it has been astronomic! I gave it to Carl Cox on a USB when he came to NY in June. He played it 2 weeks later at Resistance and then again the next week. Adam Beyer and Layton Giordani heard it and I got an email from Adam asking me for a copy for him to play. At this point I knew I was onto something so I sent it to 20 of my closets top DJ friends and by the end of August it was getting heavy rotation from Carl Cox, Adam Beyer, Chris Liebing, UMEK, Monika Kruse, Thomas Schumacher, Layton Giordani, Pig&Dan, Loco&Jam, Spektre, Durtysoxxx. I met Pig&Dan at ADE and we agreed that it would be a home run on their awesome label Elevate. I'm so excited for this release!"
