Added: 28 Sep 2009 21:51



Syke'n'Sugarstarr - the name is synonymous with pure house music. Since the late 1990s the duo has crafted a whole series of worldwide club hits, firmly establishing them as top producers and DJs. In the dance scene they are renowned for their knack of setting new trends.

As well as a host of their own tracks, S'n'S have produced or remixed songs for numerous local and international acts over the past decade. They were behind the Disco Boys' megahit "For You" (which recently attained gold status) whilst Mousse T, Armand Van Helden, Incognito, Michael Gray and Barbara Tucker are among the many artists to have called upon the services of Syke'n'Sugarstarr.

S'n'S have certainly left their mark on the music industry - as a look at the list of labels they have worked with clearly demonstrates: Ministry Of Sound, Universal Music, Subliminal, Soulfuric, Swingcity, Southern Fried, Peppermint Jam and ,last but most definitely not least, Kontor Records. Germany's leading dance label has signed an exclusive deal with Syke'n'Sugarstarr. At the time of writing, "Danz" is setting the world's dancefloors alight. Previewed at the Miami Winter Music Conference '07 the tune went on to be one of the Ibiza anthems for that summer. With their side project SE:SA the pair stormed into the UK Buzz Chart at 3 with "Like This Like That (Bonstair), enjoying support from the likes of Pete Tong. Syke'n'Sugarstarr were responsible for one of the biggest house tracks of 2006 - 'Are You Watching Me, Watching You' (feat Alexandra Prince). Their first album was released as long ago as 2004 - "Best Of Syke'n'Sugarstarr", a compilation of their finest productions and remixes. The tracklisting featured smash S'n'S hits like "Ticket 2 Ride" (Tikke Tikke, Ride Ride), "Release Your Mind" and „Can't Stop" as well as Gadjo's success "So Many Times", which Serhat (aka SE:SA) co-produced.

The most striking aspect of Syke'n'Sugarstarr is how fresh they sound - their experimental blend of funky house and percussive tracks with an elektro flavour works wonders in the studio and on the dancefloor. True to their motto "back to the roots of house" S'n'S are pioneers of exactly the sound we have been waiting for.
