My good friends over at Coco Machete have a new EP from Fukkk Offf that I heard a few weeks back that just smokes! Two of my favorite cuts are included for preview. This four track EP has a little something for everyone, even a killer downtempo jam for the heads. Follow them on their Facebook page here and go directly to Beatport to pick up the Worldwide EP.
Hijack is known for making jacking house music with bouncy beats and funk-filled grooves. His distinct sound fuses house and techno with a variety of influences, from the funky loops of 70s disco to the boompty beats of Chicago’s shuffly house cuts.
Since 2006 Hijack, has been establishing himself as one of underground dance music’s rising stars, remixing the likes of Moby, Adam Freeland, and Magik Johnson on labels such as Skint, Underwater, Potty Mouth and his own label, Jack Union Records.
His music has been played and supported by the likes of Switch, the Crookers, Riva Starr, Kissy Sellout and Annie Mac, and is a regular feature on radio shows and dance floors the world over.
Hijack’s DJ sets are packed with unreleased tracks and re-edits and have a unique sound that has led to regular appearances at venues and festivals across Europe, the USA, Australia, and South Africa, for some of the world’s biggest venues and club brands.
Jon’s Jack Union label has featured productions from the likes of house heavyweights Switch, Trevor Loveys, and Lee Mortimer, and its original style of booming quirky house music has attracted an army of avid followers.
In the coming months Hijack and Jack Union will be releasing more music than ever, with new original EPs, remixes and DJ mixes, and continuing to move crowds at clubs and festivals worldwide.

It is very rare that I find a mix from a dj that just blows me away from start to finish. This one captured my attention from the intro and just sucked me into it’s deep, funky netherworld. I met this cat almost two years ago at my friend’s birthday party in Houston and to say the after party was monumental would be a statement of lame proportions. We tagged on the decks for at least 4 hours, all the while giving the high, mid and bass knobs a workout that made me question which track was really playing. His knowledge of classic electronic music at such a young age made me have hope for all ya’ll suckas out there! Enjoy this mix by Houston’s finest DJ, Chris Costello, and hit him up on his Facebook page. You will not be disappointed.
