Conceived in the Spring of 2006 from the minds that brought you the distinguished Get Physical record label to fame; Kindisch (Childish) is the playground where artists are invited to run free and experiment within all the varieties of contemporary House music.
Adoration for House music with no boundaries or borders is the basis for the Berlin based label, that strives to pump fun, freedom and creativity back into the House music scene. A testament to accomplishing that can be seen in their world wide popularity and their tracks dropping into the bags and charts of DJ's such as Derrick Carter, Claude Von Stroke, Lee Burridge, Jesse Rose and many others.
Their site has finally gone online and we have decided to commemorate it with a mix of what we think are some of our best moments in the labels brief but potent history.

Three's Bio
Currently residing in New York City, Three has been tirelessly holding the flag for underground electronic music in the US since his rise out of the sunny state of Florida in the early 90's. In that time, he's emerged as one of the brightest DJ talents in the US and continues to be a true inspiration for many of us. Three’s tour dates show both diversity in audience and a genre-bending passion for good music; he’s held residencies at NYC’s Twilo, Cielo (Robots) and Love, as well as Florida’s legendary Simon’s while playing lauded guest spots at San Francisco’s Wicked party, Fabric (UK) and forward thinking events like Japan’s Labyrinth festival and Australia’s Rainbow Serpent..

There's not a lot of info about Chromeo's forthcoming appearance on Yo Gabba Gabba! other than this incredible photo they just posted on their MySpace. But we're gonna go out on a limb and hypothesize that, even if Dave 1and P Thugs guest appearance doesn't reach Stevie Wonder on Sesame Street levels of children's broadcasting excellence (jeez, could anything?), it will rank about even with previous YGG! cameos, which have included the likes of Biz Markie and Paper Rad, and be waaaaaaay more fun for the youth of today than REM singing with Telly Monster.
Ohhh.. and btw, if you know anything about Chromeo's upcoming appearance be sure to share it with the rest of us!
