Plump DJ's (Fingerlickin' Recordings, Fabric, UK) http://www.fingerlickin.co.uk

Finger Lickin' artists Lee Rous and Andy Gardner, better known as The Plump DJ's, have caused some serious waves in the dance music over the past few years. They are being tipped as the next Basement Jaxx/Chemical Brothers and everyone seems to want a slice of the action.

Breakbeat was slumbering away peacefully before the Plump DJs gave it a loud wakeup call with their first release 'Electric Disco/Plumpy Chunks' in 1999. With thundering momentum, their critically acclaimed productions reformatted dancefloors and perceptions, and set new production standards. Some were scared silly, few fell back asleep, but many jumped up for a shower of Plump freshness. And an alarming universal consensus was formed. Everyone wanted a piece of the Plump pie, and fat was in. 'The Push/Remember My Name' on Finger Lickin', waxed the hairs off everyone's legs and the screams of delight led the lads into completing their feature album "A Plump Night Out" in 1999. The album sampler rocketed to No.1 on DJ magazine Breaks and Beats chart for three issues in a row.

Before Lee and Andy could smile for another photo shoot, remix opportunities were piled on the doorstep. Jumpin' and Pumpin' (with perhaps a bit of pimpin') through the year of chronic concoctions the Plump DJs' spin of Stakker Humanoid's classic 'Humanoid' and a spate of other remixes for The Freestylers, DeeJay Punk Roc and Mint Royale ballooned their status. Their remixes for the likes of BT and Orbital became the bubbles of oxygen that rose to the top of the ocean of global dance music.

The formidable Fatboy Slim gave the Plumps 12" single 'TB Reality' a fat thumbs up. The flip 'Big Groovy Fucker' was Essential Breaks Tune in 7 magazine, 'Single of the month' in Muzik + Ministry, #1 in the DJ breaks and beats chart, #1 In Muzik Sweep, Cool Cuts #14, Buzz chart # 16, as well as appearing on numerous compilations and covermount CDs. The Plump productions are so rated that Phil Hartnoll called the label to say it was the best remix they've ever had! Subsequently they were been support DJs for both UK Orbital tours in 2001.

Remixing has been on the shelf for the past year as the Plumps have been in Laboratoire Plump concocting some devilish fare for their upcoming artist album. But in recent months the boys took time to sharpen their remix skills on Mr Velcro Fastener's crazy 'Electric Appliances' for Ali B's new Air imprint, and have also mixed the next instalment in the Fabric Live compilation series.
Lee and Andy have stayed faithful to their other monthly residency at the UK's number one club Fabric. That's as well as appearances at Friction, Funkt, (London), Blowpop (Bristol), Big Beat Boutique (Brighton); Bugged Out events around the country and guest spots around the world, including tours of Australia and Asia. Tours of New Zealand, USA, Canada and China are in the pipeline. Now their unique brand of Plumpy funk hits Finnish shores - this will be a classic night in Finnish club culture!
