Djosos Krost

When you say Djosos Krost, you gotta say DUB! Consisting of Pharfar and Filip the twosome tweaks out dubby sounds in any guise from roots to the deepest of electro from their studio in Copenhagen, Denmark. Both of them are producers as well as firm musicians -Pharfar on drums and Filip on guitars and bass.

The international reception of the Djosos Krost debut release 2005 ‘No Sign Of Bad’ has been very positive indeed; Great reviews in UK, Germany, US, France, Spain and Denmark, airplay on important radio like BBC Radio 1 specialist shows, DR P3, SR P3, NRK Petre, MOS. Radio, etc. and numerous highly respected DJ’s as firm supporters!

The album is produced by Djosos Krost core-men Pharfar and Filip and seasoned by the Djosos Krost musical collective; the inner circle of musicians and vocalists who contribute to the Djosos output – people with roots as far apart as Jamaica, Manchester, Barbados, Eastern Europe, Russia etc. most of them now jointly based in Copenhagen and all part of a burgeoning community.

The style of the album is electronic dub and reggae, adding a cold Nordic electronic sound to the warm Jamaican vibes! The album is danceable but even more so it’s listenable… a diverse yet integrated album. ‘No Sign Of’ Bad’ is nominated in the category ; Best urban release at the Danish Music Awards 2006.

Pharfar and Filip have roots in rock and techno music for Filips part -playing in prize-winning Danish rock band LudoX as well as producing on his own as Electricá and Turbotito, he recently remixed the Japanese new-age legend Kitaro and joined Ima Robot in the US. Pharfar´s background is producing hip hop, dub, reggae and ragga noteworthy Bikstok Røgsystem . Pharfar was selected Best Producer at Danish Music Awards 2006.

Djosos Krost was the remixers behind Junior Senior’s 'Move Your Feet' in the remix that was initially picked up by DJs like Francois Kevorkian and Norman Cook and created the hype that morphed into the massive crossover hit ’Move Your Feet’!

The group plays live on many occasions and the stage set up is:
Pharfar in front on stage on drums and backing vocals. Tuco on lead vocals and strange body moves. Emo on lead and backing vocals plus keyboards and dub etc., Daniel Muschinsky on keyboards and melodica plus Jacob Mortensen on bass. On special occasions there’s special guest vocalists like Jah Bobby and Natasja , just like Filip Nikolic travels from L.A. and participates in the stage performance.
