SHORT BIOGRAPHY
The Italian SLOK consider himself more a great pasta chef than an underground
contemporary electronic music artist...by the way, he had big
influence on the italian Breakbeat, Drum'n'Bass and Jungle scene with
his two debut albums 'They Call it Jungle' and 'Freak 2000', both
produced for the renowned Irma Records. After a natural change to
electronic and 'Personal House Music' beats and sounds in 2006,
the international club hit 'Lonely Child', released with the
collaboration of Satoshi Tomiie & Hector Romero's SAW
Recordings label (Defmix Production), boosted his musical career
quickly. His discography also includes releases and remixes
on hi
profile records labels like Get Physical Music, My
Favorite Robot, Circle Music, ONE Records, Turbo, OM,
Harthouse, Plastic Fantastic
(Stereonova), Futic Tokyo and many more. He currently runs on his own
imprint Electronic Petz, a structure created for support brand
new talented electronic music minds. In
2010 he released two different albums: 'RAIN', on Alex
Flatner's label Circle Music Germany, and 'The Fat PastaGrooves' on Electronic Petz. Now, after an intense studio work and sounds research, the year 2012 promises to be full of new collaborations including the release of a new artist album and a Live Set .

SLOK - Rocco's Hard Scene (12" EP) (Inc. Hermanez Remix) - Circle Music Germany
With his latest Album "Rain" Paris based DJ and producer Alessandro Russo aka Slok was able to follow up in quality and complexity to his in 2009 released tracks "Freak" and "Funky Fingers" on Circle Digital this year. Now he comes around with his next tune "Rocco's Hard Scene". Hermanez, who recently rocked Circle Music with his "Locomotive/Snarey Business" release produced the ten minutes monster remix. Played By: Steve Lawler, Dubfire, Gregor Tresher, Bart Skils, Chaim, Paco Osuna, Danny Howells, Brothers Vibe, Ramon Tapia, Kaiserdisco, Pig & Dan, Toni Rios, Hugo, Gel Abril, Daniel Sanchez, Slam, Phonogenic, Emerson, Anthony Pappa, Thyladomid, Taras Van De Voorde, Mashtronic, Laurent N Garnier, Wally Lopez, Ron Jeremy, Rocco Tano, Elena Anna Staller & many more!!!
A1 – Rocco's Hard Scene:
"Rocco's Hard Scene" aims at the heart of the dancefloors. It is quite obvious that the arrangement reminds to the big epoch of disco. With the funky e-bass and rhythmic guitar samples Slok, who had big influence on the italian Jungle scene by the way, again shows his instinct for accurate tracks in which he is able to move free with his intentions. Slok converts the sound of the 70ies into the sound of 2010.
A2 – Rocco's Hard Scene Part Two:
What he did in "Rocco's Hard Scene" Alessandro Russo pushes to the next level in "Rocco's Hard Scene Part Two". This time the man who is the founder of the Electronic Petz imprint and one head behind Stereonova goes straight forward with a juicy melody and spoken vocals. Again a very funky bassline leads through the fleet-footed arrangement and grounds all the ecstatic elements.
B – Rocco's Hard Scene (Hermanez Remix):
In his remix Hermanez does what he already did in his "Do You Cydonia" release on Kling Klong and his "Locomotive/Snarey Business" release on Circle Music of course: Creating breathless and progressive tech house music. His remix is a firework of ideas, emotions and levels. He takes the intention of the original track and converts it directly to the sound of these days.

SLOK - RAIN (Album) - Circle Music Germany
In 2009 Italian born and Paris based producer and DJ Slok who had big influence on the italian Breakbeat, Drum'n'Bass and Jungle scene already had two releases on Circle Music: “Freak” and “Funky Fingers”. Now, Circle Music is very happy about to welcome him again with his next Album “Rain”: With the eleven tracks of this album Slok who is also one of the man behind Stereonova, presents his wide range of production facilities. Mostly the very native tracks lay their focus on the rhythms and percussions where Alessandro Russo aka Slok shows his very precise instinct concerning basses, kicks, highs and all the other percussion elements. It is absolutely exciting to dive deeper into the rhythmic architecture of the rhythmic buildings. But there is more to explore, of course. Slok, who released tracks on labels like SAW, Get Physical, King Kong, Baroque or Turbo is able to play with styles light-handedly. Between deep or funky, tribal or minimal, with vocals like the 3rd single including on this new album 'Waiting For Rain To Fall' feat. My Favorite Robot, or not there is no long distance existing for Alessandro who is also releasing on his own label Electronic Petz. Furthermore this absolutely eclectic tech house album convinces with breezy and descreet melodies and maybe this longplayer contains a hit like Slok's “Lonely Child” was in 2005. Who knows...
