NIKE X THE FADER’S PITCH PERFECT MIXTAPE NO. 4: ASIA BY DEXPISTOLS

Our trusty re-posters over at we-are-awesome reminded us we hadn’t posted the new mix by Nike x The Fader’s Pitch Perfect – Here’s no 4. Asia by the DexPistols

Nike, Fader and Siggi Eggertson are working on an awesome project called the Nike x Fader Pitch Perfect program. Basically they are creating a unique mix and accompanying artwork for six of the seven continents. This is Volume 4 – Asia by DexPistols

We’ll be posting all six, and even though the music so far hasn’t really been or cup of tea, the concept is an interesting one, and it’s great to see what each continent is producing and how it varies from the others. We’re still extremely amped to hear the African continents one and how it holds up against the other

ABOUT THE PROJECT [source thefader.com]

“As part one of Nike Sportswear and The FADER’s Pitch Perfect program, we will be posting six mixtapes featuring music from six continents (sorry, Antarctica). Each mixtape will include brand new artwork by Siggi Eggertsson, eventually available as limited edition screen-printed posters. Stay tuned for mixtapes from Europe, North America, Asia, Australia and Africa over the next two weeks.” Source Fader.com

Every continent can lay claim to its own unique and extraordinary features, but Asia owns two of the most impressive. It covers almost one-third of the Earth’s land surface and holds almost two-thirds of its human residents. So, when asked to represent this continent in the span of six songs, Tokyo, Japan’s DexPistols were rightly bemused. The duo of DJ Maar and DJ Daruma are known for ushering the modern wave of global club music in to their home city while playing alongside Daft Punk, the Ed Banger crew, Simian Mobile Disco, Crookers and Diplo throughout Asia. All this while heading up a successful streetwear brand and art collective. In the end, they took giant leaps to cover as much ground and represent as many people as possible, but their greatest feat was making it all sound totally crazy.
