WELCOME!!!
Finland's finest, Rico Tubbs, a.k.a. DJ Infekto is so hot right now.
Rico Tubbs began producing in 1994 and has dominated the Finnish scene.
As half of pioneering Finish hip-hop/turntablist act, Skillsters, he
earned his stripes and skill. Tubbs, always on the grind, also co-founding
the 90's label, Pyssy (meaning 'toy gun' in Finnish), with a focus on hip hop,
big beat, breaks and turntablism, akin to many ESL or Ninja Tune releases.
As a producer born into hip-hop sample-based production, Rico Tubbs has recently moved in a big-room synth-heavy filter-heavy club track direction think similar to Crookers, Sinden or Hervé. Last month saw the release of Rico Tubbs first album, double-CD (mixed/unmixed), "Knuckle Sandwich" on Menu Music. The first single is 'Gangsters' this massive track takes a nasty Nas sample and makes it big. (Missingtoof.com)
