Biography of Claude VonStroke

”I would like to come over…what are you having for dinner?” asks the creepy character in Claude VonStroke's international hit, “Deep Throat.” After selling through 7 pressings and topping the charts in Germany , Belgium and Italy ; “Deep Throat” quickly put VonStroke on the map as an up and coming force. The success of the single garnered a music video by Anthony Earnest Garth, whose past directorial credits include videos for super-groups like the White Stripes, Eminem, and Slum Village . (The “Deep Throat” video will be released as a bonus feature on Claude's new dirtybird artist album coming out this May, 2006.) Following the success of “Deep Throat,” Claude VonStroke upped the ante even further with a full length album called 'Beware of the Bird.'

Claude VonStroke is better known to locals, as Barclay Crenshaw, the owner of San Francisco 's hottest new avant-house label, dirtybird. The dirtybird label consists of Crenshaw (VonStroke,) fellow producer Justin Martin, and a wide assortment of top remixers from around the globe such as John Tejada, Sammy D, Jesse Rose, and Frankie. In 2005, dirtybird released a series of daring and creative singles that were played by everyone from Ritchie Hawtin to Damian Lazarus and received top marks from all the DJ magazines.

The idea for dirtybird began in 2003 when Barclay was producing an intense 5 hour DVD about electronic music called, “Intellect.” San Francisco newcomer, Justin Martin was hired by Crenshaw to help make house music for the DVD. Barclay quickly recognized Justin's talent and took on a role as his manager, negotiating his first deals with Buzzin'fly, Classic, and Utensil Recordings. The “Intellect” project was a labor of love for Crenshaw, taking almost 2 years to make and starring over 35 top producers and legendary DJs such as Derrick May, Swayzak, Derrick Carter, Deep Dish, Paul Van Dyk, Theo Parish, and many more. The main goal of the “Intellect” project was to make an informative dvd that could help DJs advance their careers in electronic music. The result was Crenshaw himself starting dirtybird records with Justin and a production career under the quirky alias, Claude VonStroke.

In addition to production and label management, Claude VonStroke has an intense regimen for preparation and a great ear for song selection. His DJ sets are always inspiring and surprising. You will never hear a boring bunch of monotonous tracks because just like A&R at dirtybird, Claude always takes time to find the tracks that mean something. Tricky sound effects, nasty bass, inspiring melodies, and up front originals make for a completely original experience that is not to be missed.

Comment: This is a brilliant mix and a good debut on Essential mix from Claude Von Stroke. The Dirty Bird tracks are amazing. A great blend of Techno and Electro House, it's one of my favourite mixes to date! I would highly recommend to anyone.
