Description:

PICNIC is back with the latest installment of our WAREHOUSE WONDERLAND, from the crew who flew out ‘The Revenge’ & ‘Horse Meat Disco’ comes Belgian producer & deep-house wunderkind ‘MUGWUMP’ aka KOLOMBO (Gigolo/Turbo/Kompakt/Cocoon).

Also DJ’s: Simon Caldwell, Spruce Lee, Vinyl Ritchie, Kali & Disco Not Disco from 4pm til Midnight in our super-disco-phonic-sound equipped warehouse.

Mugwump hails from the city of Namur (Belgium) where’s he’s been honing his DJ and production skills and is one of few producers who’s successfully straddled big room party sounds AND caught the attention of underground music heads.

His music is equally at home on huge labels such as King Kong records (Sharam Jey’s label) with his partner Djerom under the name Loulou Players as it is on Marc Romboy’s almighty Systematic label – where he’s released under is real name.

And no-one could forget the Kolombo stuff. Yep, that’s Olivier too. From remixing The Presets “Anywhere” to originals on Turbo, Jackmoves, Kompakt, Giant Wheel and (unbelievably) even more labels to make you blush…

And then we have the Mugwump project!  Under this deeper pseudonym he has released music on a dream list of labels, all dedicated to good music, still squarely aimed at the dancing floor!

Ewan Pearsons’s Misericord label? check. Hi-Phen? check. Suicide? Check. Sasse’s killer Mood Music? Check. Rob Mello’s excellent Disco 45 label? Check. What about the label to end all labels, Kompakt? Der, haven’t you heard the tech house track of year – “Fears”? Looks like we’ve got a double check there.

And our man’s not letting up… he has tracks and remixes in the pipe-line for Cocoon, R&S, Gigolo, Eskimo and is popping up again on Kompakt.

Mugwump remains always faithful to one big and simple idea: fusion. More specifically, these days Mugwump fuses disco aesthetics with modern techno leanings in what’s starting to be the sound giving guts to the “nu-disco” movement.

Dj’s support comes thick and fast for the Mugwump sound! Sven Vath, DJ Naughty, Ivan Smagghe, Pete Herbert, Ewan Pearson, Sasha, Rob Mello, The Glimmers, Mike Monday, Jef K, Chris Duckenfield, Steve Kotey, Damian Lazarus, MANDY, Kiki, Serge (Clone) or more recently Andy Weatherall, Peter Kruder, Michaël Mayer, Dubfire, Mr Scruff, Aeroplane & Mark E, to name but a few.
