May we introduce to you Matt Welch and Terry Hooligan a.k.a. Atomic Hooligan. The standard setting and boundary pushing DJ and producer duo have long hit the Music world firmly between the eyes with quality 12 after 12 and of course their debut album YOU ARE HERE in March of 2005 (Listed as no.7 in the DJ Mag top 10 albums of the year).
This album, exemplifies everything that is fresh about the Hooligans themselves and the figurative musical high rise block that they inhabit. Their music is always informed by the ever more popular breaks movement, but never pinned down by it. Proof of this can be found on YOU ARE HERE, and in their 9 piece live band show that has already rocked FABRIC LIVE, CARGO and Festivals including GLASTONBURY and The GLADE.
But its not just their album that is shooting the Hooligan lads stratospheric this year! Fast gaining the reputation of remix Royalty, and following on from the huge success of their remixs of Cowgirl and Born Slippy for Underworld, their rework of Lee Coombs & Andy(Plump djs's) Gardener - Obsessional Rhythm on Finger Lickin sent the Hooligans straight in at number 1 in the Breaks and Beats chart. As well as this, they joined that very elite club by appearing on the front Cover of DJ Mag. Atomic Hooligan support is strong on the airwaves, with Eddy Temple Morris saying that the hooligan album launch in April was his session of the year on the XFM website, and calling YOU ARE HERE a Contender for album of the year.
DJ wise, the Hooligans just go from strength to strength. Starting 2005 by playing the FUZZY SUMMER BREAK festival in Sydney, Australia and ending it at the world famous super club FABRIC. Theres no wonder they are voted in the top 3 breaks DJs in the world. Mid way through the year Japan was the spot to rock for the Hooligan live band. After entering the national albums charts at no.11 the 6 piece band whirl winded a 3 city tour to a raptures reception, and sold a sh*t load more cds. Between the busy live show schedules, they are managing to fit in DJ dates early in the year in Canada, along with return trip to Japan and a China tour in late Winter.
