KONGKAST #105 – ft. IllSkillz (ill.skillz_recordings, Brigand/ Austria)

Mozart, Haydn, Schubert, Strauss,… ring a bell?

With a long history and tradition in culture, Austria – the small German speaking country in the heart of Europe, has been the birthplace of many famous composers. Its capital city Vienna is regarded an important centre of musical innovation – until today as it seems!

Fast forward to the 21st century, snooping around in the Austrian Drum and Bass scene brings to light an exciting modern breed of composers, such as this week’s KONGKAST artist – production duo Dkay and Rawfull aka ILLSKILLZ.

Dkay and Rawfull started their IllSkillz project back in 2001, while being part of Vienna’s trife.life! crew. Two years later, their very own their record label ill.skillz_recordings was launched. They have produced a number of tracks for labels such as Metalheadz, Virus, Renegade Hardware, Moving Shadow, Sanctuary and Universal. And for 5 years now, ILLSKILLZ have also been hosting their weekly club night “Beat It” in Vienna.

Yep, Illskillz mean business. Check out the mixset they have crafted exclusively for you KONGKAST listeners! Many thanks to IllSkillz for their selections for KONGKAST #105.
