Derek Plaslaiko - RA.EX003 Podcast

Oct 20th 2010
RA.EX003 Derek Plaslaiko by PullProxy

They call them "DJ's DJs." The type of guy everyone seems to love, but the one that can't seem to catch that break that will vault them to the level that you know they deserve. Derek Plaslaiko is a consummate example, a DJ too humble to trumpet his obvious talents, yet one too obviously talented to credibly remain humble. Needless to say, he's one of RA editor's Todd L. Burns favorite spinners, which is why he nabbed him for the latest edition of RA's Exchange.

The two have been friends for a number of years, which is why this particular Exchange might be a tad more familial than normal. But we think that with an acclaimed EP finally under his belt (after a number of years without a production credit), that the time was right to delve into the Midwestern scene from which he came. Topics include how to open for Laurent Garnier, how he stole his DJ name and pixie sticks.



Derek Plaslaiko - XOXO, NYC review on Resident Advisor

Oct 6th 2010
Fresh from remixing Ali Perc, Derek Plaslaiko releases his debut record on the label, and it's an impressive start. Plaslaiko has been around for a while and clearly has a deep knowledge of music. You can hear it on "Raw Jam," where he uses old school cowbells and claps as the basis for an unforgivingly dark bassline that's equal parts hardcore, bleep'n'bass and EBM.

Resident Advisor rate him with 4 points!
