Pro Showcase - 5 minutes with The Scumfrog...



Let's play a game of "Who am I?" ...

I have remixed Britney Spears, Dido, Enrique Iglesias, Paris Hilton and David Bowie, I wrote and co-produced Cyndi Laupers latest album, and put it this way, I have a ton of knowledge to empart.

Yes - I am talking about Jesse Houk aka The Scumfrog

We caught 5 minutes with the now New York based dance music legend to chat about music, and other such topics including why you don't always need a yacht!

Don - Thanks for chatting with us Jesse, you're a busy man, so let's jump straight in there... Describe your sound in 3 words?
Scumfrog - Cool Stuff [that] Works!

... and what is your 1 nugget of advice you could give to unsigned artists looking to make some headway?
Live for it, don't bank on it!

Who is your tip for 2010, who are you looking at to make waves next year?
DJ Theresa from NYC, worth checking out!

So what's next for you, any more stellar collaborations to tell us about?
A compilation for people with yachts, titled “Friends With Boats Vol.2” Download for free exclusively at http://www.myspace.com/friendswithboats ....even if you don’t have a yacht.

Now, if that isn't diversity I don't know what is... Britney Spears, Yachts and Cyndi Lauper all in the space of one blog post!

Some great pieces of knowledge to take away there, i've a feeling "Live for it, don't bank on it" is a new mantra in the making :)

If you have 5 minutes spare, you seriously have to check out The Scumfrog website, the flash "Scumberry" feature is really cool... nice blast of fresh air!

Also, if you want to see a who's who of dance music, in list format head to the "discography" section.

You can get it all via his Scumberry anyway on the website, go check it out at http://www.thescumfrog.com/

Until next time...


Don.
