Please introduce yourself briefly.
Hi there, I'm Dirty K, from Nanjing, China.
We feel your music has been informed by a wide range of genres like Grime, Footwork & etc. Are there any specific genres you have been focussing on lately?
Not really, in the past, I always liked to imitate different genres that I wanted to be. But that always made me lose myself. For now, I would rather put my ideology into different frameworks and structures than simply follow the trend. 'ๅจๆบ' is my first attempt to find myself.
Do you think the idea of โgenreโ is important?
I think the idea of โgenreโ is important, but absolutely not in all the terms. Different tags can help people find the music they like more conveniently, like how a menu in a restaurant gives people selections. But when artists produce the music, how they express their ideas is the most important thing, not genre.
In relation to this, what genre would you place your music in? On your SoundCloud I saw the use of #CantoneseGrime that I liked; on your track DaiTou with Soulhan.
Thank you haha. As I said, #CantoneseGrime was raw shit to everyone when the label GZUG was going to release this song, and I came up with this tag automatically. There are too many genres that influence me, including Grime and Dancehall riddim.
ๅจๆบโ(Motivation), the track of yours in โGenome 6.66 Mbpโ compilation album is a little different from your older tracks; did you change your style or does it fit into your wider range as an artist?
Before I met the Genome crew, I didnโt even know this kind of music. They inspired me a lot. Genome helped my music become more independent and โๅจๆบโ is the prototype of a direction which I will further explore.
What is the most important thing for you when you make a track?
A comfortable room with red bull and snacks? Hahahaha.
What is your process when making a track? For example; Are you more calculated or more intuitive?
In Chinese 'ๅจๆบโ means motivation, that's the main idea of this track, because motivation is the minimum unit in music like the genome in the body. Motivation can be a short rhythmic pattern or phrase, the theme of the track consists of several different motivations. So I always find the best motivation then I expand it to a nice theme.
Whatโs currently happening in the Chinese underground dance music scene?
Itโs tough, I want to say, but the party still needs to go on, we'd never give up.
What is it like working in a more localised scene? And How is it specific to Nanjing or Shanghai?
If you are a full-time promoter I think you need to have a lot of patience to promote your stuff and make people understand what is cool. Nanjing is a one of the best cities to live in China, Shanghai is busy but have more fun.
Also, how do you think the Chinese underground music scene fits into the global underground music scene and specifically the east Asian scene?
That was definitely the most positive thing I have ever experienced like the meaning of this interview, I can't believe you guys from Seoul found me to make this interview. Now to communicate with people in different countries is the only way to encourage me to release music in global label. You make me feel not lonely anymore, for real.
What is next for you?
Iโm preparing my first EP in Genome 6.66Mbp, and I'm trying to improve my English, too. Hahahaha.
Please describe this mix briefly.
Iโm simply sharing some tracks Iโve been listening to recently. Hope you guys will like it.

Is this first time in Korea? What do you feel?
Yes, its the first time, im so very excited, never thought i will be here to perform, so happy to know that there's following of my work and my label here, also its interesting because in Mexico City on of the growing communities is S. Koreans so it just fits perfectly
What do you think about Trump's America as a Mexican?ย (Sadly all the crazy things are happening, now.)
I honestly do not care, he is not my president, i think "they" are trying to make the people concerned way too much about it, it makes me sad that many people in Mexico is now super confused and angry doing stupid keyboard activism and posting every single day news about that, i mean, life goes on and we do have so many problems in the country, so i don't think we need more concerns. Its the best time to work an to make stuff and forget the idea that USA is the center of the world.
Where are you based in Mexico?
Mexico City, i love the city, so big, and many things happen, i just love to live there
How things going on the underground music scenes the city you based on? and is it good to make musics there?
I think it is a healthy moment for young and established musicians, sadly, mexicans need international validation in order to believe in local artistic movements, but its happening now, many media outlets point out Mexico as a hot place for culture and music and it is becoming that way.
Can you tell us about your music, when did you start make music and DJ? where do the influences in your music come from?
I started when i was 15 years old, before i was recording dance hits from the radio on cassettes, but after the first time i saw someone manipulating turntables and also when i discovered that there was electronic music being produced in Mexico i really got into it, so it has been 15 years of an amazing adventure, and since 3 years from now i live out of music only, which was something i never thought would happen to me.
Why do you think thereโs been big in Latin sounds outside South America recently?
hmmm honestly don't know, but maybe it was just good timing for latin rhythms to have a moment, maybe some people was tired of the same rhythmic structures, maybe there are new generations of kids that are into electronic music and many of them are not based in the common places for electronic music to happen such as LA, NY, London, Berlin or Paris, there's so many people and aesthetics in the world so it's just part of a natural process i guess.
Can you tell us about the N.A.A.F.I, What is N.A.A.F.I? How you guys met each other? Why you guys make the crew?
NAAFI started as a club night which promoted local and national talents, it eventually became a crew and a group of friends with the need of releasing their own material, so it was also something super natural, the family grew each time we invited artists, we are all linked by friendship. We are so happy to stand for it and to show that there are many things to be made, so by now it is not just a club night or a dj crew or a label, it is more like a cultural brand/office.
Let's talk about the edit pack PISO, and about ten days ago Xibalba Remixes released on EFC.
hmmm PISO was a collection of club tools that i had been playing for many months and many people was asking me to share, i promoted it through VK's group Ethereal Grooves which is amazing and so focused on music and visual aesthetics, PISO artwork was made by WWWINGS with this idea of collaborating over the internet without the need of knowing in flesh or even in a picture who i was working with, also that's how the connection with Eco Future Corp happened, i became a fan of their sound and aesthetic that i made it possible to get in touch with them and ask them for the opportunity of a release with some remixes, i like it so much.
The album cover is designed by WWWINGS, and you also worked some songs with them. how was that? how was working with them?
One day like 2 years from now i received a message from WWWINGS, they wanted to collaborate and there was very little talk or discussion about it, we just worked on the tracks back and forward, and thats how they do it, and i love it, they are so good and so focused. I have an upcoming release with WWWINGS, we have a couple tracks that we worked in 2016 almost ready.
I can tell your sound is getting darker and experimental recently, Why do you think there's so many dark and experimental sound came out recently?
I think the dancefloor is more that ready for experimentation, i love the crowd that let itself go with the music, i also like disruption and chaos, i never actually prepare my sets, not even for festivals or so called "important gigs" in the end i just let myself go, many times i make mistakes which i try to take advantage from, also i have this idea that there's no need to be pleasant with the crowd. Club as a concept is a place for stimulation, recreation but also investigation and introspection.
You are the head of Extasis Records, How do you run the record label? how do you choose the artist you work with? ย Angelic Slang [EXTASIS021] by Ida Dillan released today! This EP is so nice!
I run it since 2012 and what i like in its way to operate is that it is not compromised to please either media or the public, and that's why i like the music selection to be eclectic, i believe so much in what the artist feel that i encourage them to get out of the comfort zone and to experiment with music, there are also artists that get the idea perfectly like ZUTZUT, Morten HD or Wasted Fates so it's an amazing project to run. Ida has been an excellent producer that i've had on the radar for more than 3 years, many people play her music like her "Not Gonna Get Us Bootleg" bootleg so i wanted to give her a proper space to release her music and im so glad the way it happened. Angelic Slang is out now.
You've been so many countries, include RBMA 2014 in Japan, and Sonar 2015 in Barcelona. When was your the best moment in your tour?
i love travelling, i also get super stressed at borders, sometimes i get judged by my tattoos or because of the hair or just my style, but besides that it's an amazing adventure, which im conscious that i am very lucky so i always try my best, also i love meeting local artists and collaborate with them, last week in Tokyo i asked Redbull Japan to use the studio and I started 4 projects with the Japanese artists Wrack, K.W.A and Mc JNYA.
What do you feel like for dinner tonight in Seoul?
Korean BBQ for sure, i love food and that is one of my favorites, im also open to discover new experiences with food, so i will try my best to get a good panorama of Korean food.
What do you expect tonight at the Cakeshop?
OMG! Cakeshop is very famous among the artist community worldwide, it's like the right place to be linked in Asia, i think they are focused on music and club experimentation, which not many places in the world have the courage to do it, so i am very excited and honored to be part of their amazing list of invited artists.
