When the artistic duo, Andy Samin and Jelle Keizer, met each other for the first time in an empty club they instantly melded together their collective musical background sound to form Mightyfools, which got a strong trademark that has been praised worldwide. When the duo made their first tracks together they recognized that this foolish way of working was the best way to get to the top. Teamwork!
Their Partyjunkies EP got strong attention worldwide and went straight to the charts on all major digital music portals, including their popular dancehit ‘Amsterdam’ with the catchy lyrics that resemble the foolish life. Their sensational performances have already brought them to popular clubnights and venues like Rauw Amsterdam, Social Club Paris, parties for Vice Magazine, Club Woda Mexico, Voyeur San Diego, and Club Beta in Denver, the home of Beatport.
In the heat of the summer of 2009 they saw themselves performing on the biggest festivals in Holland like Dance Valley and Mystery Land. Not soon after that they flew to Australia for a huge club tour which was a big success and generated much fame on the other side of the world. Airplane in and out, the fools went to the USA for an another big club tour that took them to Hollywood to perform on the legendary Dim-Mak Tuesdays Night in Hollywood, LA. Beyond expectation, the crowd loved seeing the Mightyfools showing their enormous amount of energy.
What to expect from these two superstars, you might wonder? That’s an easy question. Music that will set the dance floors on fire, crowd surfing party kids and having fun watching this hyperactive duo blend together their records as if it’s nothing. Possessing a gift to make dance floor hits, they remixed top class artists like: Crookers, Tommie Sunshine and even the world famous band Fall Out Boy, who wrote nothing but goodness about this new take on their song. With tracks appearing on Potty Mouth Music, Venga Digital, Ultra Records, Lektroluv and more, Mightyfools have also gained the attention of Laidback Luke, Kissy Sellout, Will Bailey, Bloody Beetroots, Diplo, Switch and fellow Potty Mouth Music labelmates, HiJack and Crookers. Their Kelis Milkshake remix continues generating dance floor buzz among house artists.
The Mightyfools sound is global gold: no matter where or when, they rock the floors. A mash up of party sounds inspired by house, disco, electro and a dose of rock ‘n roll all led by their infamous basslines.
