DT885 - Little Fritter - Data Transmission

There aren’t many humans on this planet that deal in unabashed, fruity fun like Australia’s Little Fritter.

Over the last decade, the Gold Coast-based artist has peddled his multicoloured good times across the dance scene, first as a DJ and promoter in his homeland with regular slots and residences at some of the country’s most-loved events such as Melbourne’s Revolver, Lost Paradise, Future Music, The BUNKER, Subsonic, and his own Me and You and GOGO TROPICO events, and further abroad at international institutions including Love Parade and Club De Visionaere in Germany, Barcelona’s Off-Sonar, and London’s Spilt Milk, among many others.

As a producer, Fritter’s sound really took hold with a set of releases on Moon Harbour, Hudd Traxx, Catwash, and One Records, with each record showcasing his raw talent for insatiable grooves and tunes that lock you on the dancefloor with intoxicating allure.

And it wasn’t just the dancers that were drawn to Fritter’s rhythms; midway through 2013, he was called on to remix none other than house don Ricardo Villalobos—an honourable tip of the hat from the undisputed master of the groove. His collaborative project Nil By Mouth with fellow Australians Zare and Alex James has also clocked up considerable play throughout the scene and landed a feature on the yearly Circoloco compilation in 2011.

This year, Fritter returns after a brief hiatus—a creative battery charge if you will— he has had a run a solid releases and remixes including his most hyped track to date ‘Higher’ plus he has teamed up with a long-time best mate and man-of-the-moment FISHER to wreak havoc on the scene. Following his usual appearances at Fisher’s HÏ Ibiza residency, Fritter now brings his sizzling energy to Paradise Music’s tenth release with his latest single, ‘Da Phunk Within You’.

Today, he joins us on the podcast again. Listen to it below, on Mixcloud or iTunes here.

Grahame Farmer’s love affair with electronic music goes back to the mid-90s when he first began to venture into the UK’s beloved rave culture, finding himself interlaced with some of the country’s most seminal club spaces. A trip to dance music’s anointed holy ground of Ibiza in 1997 then cemented his sense of purpose and laid the foundations for what was to come over the next few decades of his marriage to the music industry.
