Bordeaux, France has a new powerhouse for hard-hitting techno and glitchy house in Strip Steve. The 20th release in the growing Boysnoize Records catalog (the new imprint founded by Berlinian electrophile Boys Noize, of course), Strip Steve’s debut EP, ‘Skip School’, is a credit to to the emerging label; it keeps pace with the ubiquitous mix friendly releases that have come before, from artists such as D.I.M., Shadow Dancer, Les Petits Pilous, PUZIQUe, and, naturally, Boys Noize. Here’s a pair from ‘Skip School EP’:
MP3: Strip Steve - Ready Steady
Strip Steve made his first noise on Ed Banger affiliate label Arcade Mode, with the 2007’s B-side single ‘Skatin” (split with Das Glow’s ‘Sunburnt’ on the A-side):
Strip Steve has shown his remix skill in this work for moody French pop-rock act Adam Kesher and one mysterious Chromeo remix that’s been floating around (even rearing its head in the recent Clifford Lidelle mix on this here blog) has presumably morphed into an instrumental track of it’s own, titled ‘You & I’ on the ‘Skip School EP’—just FYI. Now here’s Adam Kesher:

@ Cody:
Thanks, G. My quality control is lacking tonight. Now ‘Skating’ is fixed to both stream and download.
Kittens:
The the lacking quality control — quickly for given by the quality of the tunes.
Looks like I have to slap together a quick mix tonight and get discotastic.
I’m just failing at typing tonight, first my website link in my name, now the above post!

Adam Kesher is a band. They’ll be romping through the USA again next month…
@ David:
I knew that actually, but aren’t they a band in the same way Beck is a band? I’ll change it anyway just for the sake of proper language. Thanks for the heads up.
