Stockholm-based house music producer Per QX launches his Walk of Shame Records label with ‘Hit Da Spot’, released on 13 November.
Walk of Shame is an outlet for rebellious house music producers. Setting up his own label, Per QX wanted to bring back some of the old-school attitude, humour and sassiness that seems to have disappeared a bit since the fun-filled ‘90s rave era.
The first release on Walk of Shame is Per QX ‘Hit Da Spot’ – a track heavily influenced by female hip-hop artists like Leila K, Salt-N-Pepa and Neneh Cherry. ‘Hit Da Spot’’s main hook is a rap that takes us back to the late ‘80s hip-house, whilst its saucy filter disco groove is a reminder of those classic house tracks from the early 2000s.
Commenting on the launch of Walk Of Shame, Per QX said: “Walk of Shame is a guilt-free and uncompromising home for artists who are keen to push house music past the confines of the more conventional labels. I’ve always believed that tracks should be quirky and catchy enough to get attention without being engineered to fit the charts. I want to release tracks that haven’t been fabricated to please the major players.”
Per QX is making big waves this year. His recent tracks ‘Supa Fly’, ‘Feed Me’, ‘Say Yes’, and ‘Take It Higher’ all went into the Top 10 House and Nu Disco charts on Traxsource. DJ support has included from The Blessed Madonna, Fatboy Slim, Mousse T, Low Steppa, David Guetta, Mark Knight, Dr. Packer, Joey Negro, Horse Meat Disco, Seamus Haji, and Roger Sanchez.
Release date: November 13th, 2020.
