makeitgood x FatKidOnFire #24 – OPT1K

makeitgood x FatKidOnFire #24 - OPT1K

We first caught the next guest Dj/ producer through our old friends Black Milk. Nathan “OPT1k” Spooner produced a sensational mix and we’ve kept tabs on him since we first heard it in August. When we crossed paths again recently, we got him down for this next makeitgood x FatKidOnFire interview and mix. OPT1K’s mix is an awesome blend of all sub-genres of dubstep and we think he’s got serious skills… [OPT1K photographed by Kate Hook] How long have you … more

Interview #57 – Vapour x FatKidOnFire

Interview #57 - Vapour x FatKidOnFire

We’ve welcomed 2011 with open arms, had a few new makeitgood x FatKidOnFire interviews (and mixes) and a re-interview and it’s now time to drop the first FKOF brand feature for the new year. It’s good to be back! This next brand is steeped in extreme sports and create apparel around their three main inspirations; music, art and sport. We reckon they’re definitely a brand that deserves more attention but we’ll leave you to decide if you agree… [The Vapour … more

MakeItGood x FatKidOnFire #23 – Jestah

MakeItGood x FatKidOnFire #23 - Jestah

We’re all about celebrating home grown talent here at FatKidOnFire. This applies to clothing brands or Djs or producers. The next makeitgood x FKOF feature and exclusive mix is from a young Dj who’s got some mad decent skills spinning vinyl (as his mix shows) and who is starting to cut his teeth in the production game. Given time, Bristol’s Jestah will be a force to be reckoned with. You heard it here first… How long have you been producing … more

Re-Interview #3 – One Forty Five South x FatKidOnFire

Re-Interview #3 -  One Forty Five South x FatKidOnFire

After our second re-interview with F2D Clothing at the start of December, we figured we’d start 2011 off with a catch up with another of the brands to feature on the original FatKidOnFire site six months ago. Chicago’s One Forty Five South was the sixteenth brand to feature here at the first FKOF. Chaz’s brand has continued to grow with their latest collections (due January and March) marking the next step in the brand’s evolution. We sat down with Chaz to have … more

makeitgood x FatKidOnFire #22 - KANEDUBSTEP

It’s New Year’s Eve and like our last makeitgood x FatKidOnFire mix that we posted on Christmas eve, the beer goggles have yet to fully descend so we’re able drop the newest exclusive interview and mix. For those of you who are fans of FKOF on Facebook, you’ll have already heard of the next interviewee. We first found KANEDUBSTEP through his truly amazing remix of Professor Green’s latest dubstep-inspired single, ‘Monster‘. We got in contact to see if he’d fancy … more

makeitgood x FatKidOnFire #21 – STEREOLIEZ

makeitgood x FatKidOnFire #21 - STEREOLIEZ

It’s Christmas eve and we’ve got just enough time (before the alcohol well and truly starts flowing) to get the latest makeitgood x FatKidOnFire exclusive interview and mix posted. For those of you who reached FAKE KID ON FIRE a few weekends back (and stayed until the end) will know the next featured artist(s) very well. Like our crazy Italien bros in Dropfellas, this Dj/ production duo are renowned for bringing the European party spirit and Italian dubflavours to whichever night they’re at. STEREOLIEZ are … more

Interview #56 – RISE Worldwide x FatKidOnFire

Interview #56 - RISE Worldwide x FatKidOnFire

A few weeks after the last (re-)interview, we’re finally getting ready to post new material. Apologies for the lack of posts here at FatKidOnFire HQ over the passed nine days, but getting back into a career frame of mind (and the routine of working 12+ hours a day)  takes a bit of getting used to! In the wind down to the Christmas holidays there’s time in the evenings for the blogging and the recaps (which is on its way as … more

Re-Interview #2 – F2D Clothing x FatKidOnFire

Re-Interview #2 - F2D Clothing x FatKidOnFire

After our first re-interview with Villainous Visard in September, we thought it was high time to get talking to another of our original brands to feature on the original FatKidOnFire site six months ago. Birmingham’s F2D Clothing was the fifth brand to feature here at the first FKOF. The brand has continued to grow with their latest collection being their best yet (in our opinion). We sat down with Dan to have a quick catch up, to discuss what’s gone … more

MakeItGood x FatKidOnFire #20 – Drama

MakeItGood x FatKidOnFire #20 - Drama

This next dubstep Dj was one of the first Djs I saw spin live after discovering dubstep for the first time (big shout out to the Dropfellas fam for arranging that night!) and it’s  slightly surreal to have Drama drop an exclusive makeitgood x FatKidOnFire feature and mixtape. Catch Drama on Myspace and peep his Twitter account for all the latest updates and get the feature/ mix after the jump. How long have you been producing music? I’ve been producing … more

Interview #55 – Moog Royale x FatKidOnFire

Interview #55 – Moog Royale x FatKidOnFire

It’s been a fairly hectic week here at FatKidOnFire. New website, new interviews and mixtapes aplenty, winning a national award and landing a new internship – it’s nice to get to the weekend and slow things down a bit (except it hasn’t; thankfully there’s been more blogging to do today otherwise I’d be sat twiddling my thumbs waiting for the hangover to dissipate). Luckily, we’ve got another feature to drop for you guys. Peep the teaser video for the brand’s … more
