FRIDAY 10TH MARCH 2006
THE WAIT IS OVER HK EPISODE 5 HAS LANDED - OUT NOW IN MUSIC STORES!!
MIXED BY SCOTT ALERT & ALEX KIDD (UK)
Now being labelled as "the biggest next generation nutter" in Hard Dance, Alex Kidd is well on his way to Global Domination with his unique, dance floor destroying sets. He is one of a few UK based DJ’s that supports a European Hard Trance & Hard style sound. But defining his sound is a difficult topic that many have attempted & FAILED to address. When questioned Alex says his style is "predominantly European Hard Trance, with elements of Hard Dance and Hard Style & a splattering of Techno, just for good measure!" This is all reflected in the wild and outrageous shows that he consistently delivers. His insane technical ability shines through as he battles and chops his way through growling beats and soaring riffs to stand high and mighty over all other’s on the bill, gaining the respect of other artists and amazed crowds the world over
The Alex Kidd Experience cannot be fully appreciated on a mix CD. That Kidd is a true showman behind the decks with his constant trickery of the mixer and wild antics that whip the crowd into frenzy, not just confined to the DJ booth - Don't be surprised to see The Kidd crawling up the speakers to hype up the vibe, whipping out (a very plastic!) Chainsaw or taking a masked crowd dive - Whatever turns up the atmosphere and takes the party to the next level! Alex really cemented his place amongst the bright lights of the Hard Dance Industry in 2005, Alex demolished nightspots in Sydney, Melbourne& the Gold Coast amongst others in early January. Alex has since twice returned Down Under including touring with Lab 4 on their sell out Album tour. As for Ibiza, Alex cut & mixed his way to being the most popular DJ on the biggest success story - Tidy vs Euphoria @ Es Paradis, Ibiza. Including a now legendary 3 hour set at Tidy's closing party. Alex also played in Hamburg, Germany on two occasions, recently headlining the worldwide renowned Tunnel Club's 12th Birthday Rave. In 2005, The Kidd has really emerged - becoming a London Hard Dance Hero - Frantic's new superstar at massive sellout events such as their 8th Birthday, Hardcore Heaven meets Frantic at Camden Palace, More, Blast v Convergence and Genesis. Aswell as huge Frantic support, Alex is becoming a Wildchild fave, playing at Heaven and also at their birthday at SE1.With residencies now at not only Goodgreef but also Tranzaction in Cornwall, regularly appearing at all the top events and clubs throughout 06 including Dance Academy, Sundissential, Slinky. Big, Scream, etc. Aswell as ripping up the Tidy Weekender's. But the talents of Alex Kidd are in no way confined to the DJ Box alone. Alex has been the A&R manager for the hugely successful Goodgreef record label since its beginning, putting him at the forefront of what's happening now & has mixed all 3 of the Goodgreef Albums, including the 3rd album with Yoji Biomehanika which included a huge UK tour alongside Yoji to help promote the Album. We are now excited that Alex has mixed the second disc for hard kandy's 5th instalement of it's club series.
SCOTT ALERT

Locally Scott has played main stage at every major Dance event in Melbourne including Two Tribes, Pharmacy, Adventure, Slinky and was the only hard dance artist to play at Earthcore main stage, supporting LAB4 in front of 5,000 people. To keep the pace going, Scott has been busy in the studio, completing productions with Dr. Willis, J K Walker & K-Complex releasing 2 tracks – ‘Go away' & ‘Take a Ride’ featured on the kandy compilations, of which we will see 12" inch releases shortly through hard kandy recordings. International artists such as Gaz West, Alex Kidd & Kevin Energy alike are burning dance floors throughout Europe, promoting locally signed productions and receiving high praises.
This compilation includes tracks by artists Scott has worked closely with, comprising of material that will only be heard on this compilation.
2006 sees Scott launching a stronghold of new tracks pushing Australian artists to be promoted through a world tour through U.K, Finland, Holland, Malaysia, China and America.
