2009 has been quite the rollercoaster ride for Don Diablo, having already killed the crowd with the demonic overground club smash 'Hooligans' (Sunday Times Culture), which was a collaboration with UK rapper Example, as well as playing festivals like Glastonbury & Creamfields this summer and remixing acts like Mika, Cassius and FrankMusik. Add to that, he has been 'Most Blogged Artist' in the world several times this year, according to music blog aggregator The Hype Machine, and the blogosphere continues to love Don Diablo with over 4 million downloads in the last 9 months. Earlier this year, he already scored a song placement in hit TV-series CSI:NY and most recently signed a global administration deal with leading global independent music publisher Chrysalis Music. He just released a top 10 Aria Chart compilation, Neon Essentials Vol. 2, through Warner Music and earlier this year did the prestigious cover CD for DJmag, which also ranked him 137 in their renowned DJ Top 100 list; quite the achievement given his soundtrack as a DJ.He has produced, composed, written and performed all the songs on his forthcoming debut album, Life is a Festival (Sony Music), which he recorded all by himself in his Amsterdam-based studio. With forthcoming tours through Australia, Asia, North & South America and a plethora of UK gigs, 2010 is looking to become an even bigger year for Don Diablo, who was recently called 'man-of-the-moment' by NME, 'a future star' by dance music connoisseur Pete Tong (BBC Radio 1) and even Kanye West is down with the Don, promoting Don Diablo's latest video on his infamous blog. The first big single from his album, ‘Where I belong (Life is a festival)’ will be released early 2010 to launch his album. There will be no escaping Don Diablo in 2010!
Here is the forthcoming release of Sellout Sessions 03, which is the third chapter in the series. The new mix-compilation features a lot of exclusive remixes and tracks by Don Diablo, but also includes tracks and mixes by The Prodigy, Bloc Party, Simian Mobile Disco, Tiga, Cassius, Fake Blood and Stereo MC’s, to name but a few!
Don Diablo about his new disc: “This new mix-album is basically an overview of what I've been up to this year as a producer, remixer and DJ. Sellout Sessions 03 features some of my favourite remixes I did this year for artists like Cassius, Stereo MC's, Linus Loves, Cagedbaby, One eskimO, Dragonette and others. The mix also features three of my most successful dancefloor productions of this year: ‘Hooligans’, ’Too cool for school’, ‘Disco Disco Disco’ and a brand-new track called ‘Teen Scream Machine’ which will be released in 2010. The rest of the tracklist was filled in by simply selecting some of the tunes that have been doing well for me in my DJ sets, including tracks by Tiga, Simian Mobile Disco, Bloc Party, Fake Blood and The Prodigy. All in all I think this mix perfectly showcases my own sound in many different ways, which is not always easy to capture on one disc or in general for that matter!”
