Flint Kids are London based pioneering electronic music duo Danny Nolan & Dave Smith on Interakt Records. They have been creating various forms of electronica for the past decade, possessing a vast, unreleased back catalogue. In 2000, they began writing music together on an Akai MPC 2000, S600, Korg Trinity and 303. Years later, armed with laptops, Logic, Ableton and other electronic goodies, their outlook is to keep on pushing the boundaries of electronic music, using the world as their synthesizer. Their passion for so many different types of music has saved them from ever being pigenholed. Glitches and bleeps fuse with organic matter fired from a techno blunderbuss, to create a pool of binary sputum that finds no home in any one genre.
In 2006, Interakt presented a night featuring Flint Kids who performed alongside Scanone, Milanese, Bass Clef, Untold & more.. at Corsica Studios. This was by no means no ordinary club night. Entitled `Kreatures - Animatronics Meets Bass', Interakt collaborated with pioneering animatronics designers John Nolan, Gustav Hoegen and Josh Head, to build an entourage of animatronic creations with flawless animatronic expressions which were perfectly synced with the music. It was a ground breaking night of next level future bass mechanics...
On Saturday 18th May, Flint Kids will be performing a one-off, special live set, written especially for The Dodo Club. Given that they obviously don't do things by halves, this is a set not to be missed!
It's also worth mentioning that Flint Kids and Interakt Records, as well as our very own Pyramid Transmissions DJs - ADJ and Pathic, are all currently involved in a special remix project called `Chinese Whispers Project', in aid of 'Youth Music', a charity using music to help disadvantaged children. 4 groups of 4 artists each contribute 1 1/2 minutes of track arrangement. One producer contributes the first part and then passes it on to the next producer who makes his mark, and so on. The fourth producer pulls it all together into a tune to be pressed onto vinyl along with another 3 tunes done via the same process. Folk on board include Si Begg, Carl Finlow, Headcleaner, Cursor Miner, Pathic, ADJ, Tim Exile, Monster X, Flint Kids, Scanone and Otto Von Schirach, amongst others.
