DOD POP
http://dodpop.info/
Formed in 2008 in Oslo Dod Pop instantly made a hit on the Skweee scene with a series of essential 7" and a critically lauded compilation. Taking in all the influences of the Skweee pioneers and combining it with that Norwegian swagger, the sound of Dod Pop is bright, funky and primed for the dancefloor. Their 2nd compilation confirmed Dod Pop’s position as one of Skweee’s leading labels ...
MELKEVEIEN (Dod Pop)
http://soundcloud.com/melkeveien
Responsible in part for the formation of Dod Pop, Melkeveien's tracks take the crunch of hip hop and layer on thick synths producing thugged out Skweee without equal.
BEATBULLY (Dod Pop)
http://soundcloud.com/beatbully
With an album out imminently (it's a stomper) Beatbully's sound combines Skweee with boogie and RnB to great effect, it’s as if they were made for the DP dancefloor.
SPRUTBASS (Dod Pop)
http://soundcloud.com/sprutbass
Watching Sprutbass work the micro Korg and vocoder was a Donky's dreamticket in Helsinki early last year. With a remix out on Ninja Tune and his work on Dod Pop this man oozes funk - essential Skweeeducation.
SLUGABED (Planet Mu, Ninja Tune, Ramp, MYOR, Donky Pitch)
http://www.myspace.com/slugabedmusic
A producer of the highest grade, Sluga's DJ sets have seen him headline events all over Europe and the US. Back where he belongs Sluga is primed and ready to yet again rock the sh*t out of Jam. Honey you're home.

BOSS KITE (Flogsta Danshall, Poisonous Gases, MYOR)
http://soundcloud.com/bosskite
Since his last Donky ride in June, Brighton local Boss Kite has been a busy chappy. A recent release on the US based Poisonous Gases label followed a remix on Coco Bryce's MYOR imprint and with a 7" single scheduled to drop on Flogsta Danshall (the world's first Skweee label) his well deserved place is now cemented in the Skweee Hall of Fame.
