Shan & OB welcome Steve Raskin, the founder of The Fort Knox Five. Based originally out of Washington-DC, Steve started the group with original members Jon Horvath, Rob Myers and Sid Barcelona and through their label, Fort Knox Recordings, they have released many “must-have” beat-flavoured bombs on the funk, reggae, hiphop and electronica tip that DJ’s and punters the world over have gravitated towards like flies to honey. From supporting acts on tour like The Black Eyed Peas and Gwen Steffani to Vegas residencies, producing albums for legends like Afrika Baambaattaa and remixing everyone and anyone in-between their mega-albums Radio Free-DC and Pressurize The Cabin, Fort Knox Five have achieved a lot over the years. Shan and OB go deep in conversation with Steve about this and everything he and the collective have been up to lately, like the new remix they just did for DiscoBeta that is pure club brilliance and a new Fort Knox Five original track coming out soon featuring vocalist Emily Malloy that is all about pop vibrations over that classic FK5 sound. Of course, they do all of this amidst plenty of party beats, funk, hiphop and boogie classics to make this a show that you cannot miss.
