DESCRIPTION:
Vocal House Funk & Nu Disco Flavas Acroos This 4 Tracker - 4 tracks for the dancefloor inspired by Italo Disco, New Wave Funk and NYC 90ies House. A perfect sound for the new Y2K vibes on 2024 dancefloors.

A new Kapote release is a rare thing. Although he is a musician and producer in the first place he rarely releases music. Why? Because the last years he was busy djing every weekend around the world (as a regular at clubs like Berlin’s Panorama Bar and London’s Phonox but also Festivals like Melt or Kala) and creating the Toy Tonics madness with his label friends. The Berlin based label that is the home base for 15 international artists (Cody Currie, Coeo, Gee Lane, Athlete Whippet, Baby‘s Berserk, Stump Valley…) became THE brand for a colorful and diverse, innovative and ‘organic’ funk oriented post - digital dance music.
Kapote and his friends release music that connects analogue and band vibes with digital production in a very fresh and unique way. Influenced by European underground disco and American house as well as afro beats, new wave and soulful Electronica.
But he and his label also have achieved a great reputation for working with some of the hottest names in Berlin graphic design and art to release the limited edition Toy Tonics Shirts, the label own TT Pocket Poster Magazine, posters and organizing exhibitions and visual shows.
Kapote aka Mathias Modica was and his 3 members TT krew were busy building all this.
Including also the Toy Tonics Jams. The label parties that started in an illegal venue in Berlin 2020 and exploded in 2023. With more than 120 TT events all over Europe. Where the label represents his very own vison of sound, vibe and style. Kapote organized all this with his krew. And it looks like 2024 will be even busier. With Toy Tonics Events at clubs but also museums (Palais de Tokio/ Paris, Milano Design Festjval) or Kapote & Toy Tonics Crew playing with Kaytranada and Peggy Gou at Sonar Festival.

In case you missed the last production works of Kapote check out his album ‘What it is’. Originally relased 2019. Re-released with new songs 2023. Or some of the 5 EPs he did on Toy Tonics in the last 8 years.
In case you don’t know his work under the name of Munk on his former label Gomma records (RIP) check it out. Kapote aka Munk co- produced the first 2 albums of Danish band WhoMadeWho, NYC art freak The Rammellzee, disco albums for Peaches and Nancy Whang of LCD Soundsystem, singles with DJ Chloe and many others.

Last FM Information on Kapote

Please note the information is done on a artist keyword match and data is provided by LastFM.
The Toy Tonics label boss has a long history of producing dance music, being a DJ and one of the leading figures in the Berlin dance scene. Before starting Toy Tonics he produced singles and albums for people like Peaches, James Murphy & Nancy Whang (of LCD Soundsystem), Bobby Conn, Graffiti legend The Rammellzee, WhoMadeWho and many others. To create a new form of label universe – for the upcoming forms of house and disco (not techno, trance or EDM that’s the opposite vibe) – he started Toy Tonics with 2 friends. With Toy Tonics Kapote created a label family with all kind of musicians, keyboarders and drummers who also are DJs and record collectors, that stand for a very strong own funky musical vibe. As a DJ, he normally plays only at Toy Tonics Jams – but can be requested for special solo gigs too. Kapote aka Mathias Modica, who some might also know from his former label Gomma records, where he produced under the name of Munk, plays a wild mix of funk orientated music. From rare disco edits and Italian disco to modern quality house and futuristic broken beat and funky new wave. And of course, he plays a lot of Toy Tonics records. It’s always euphoria.
