Recently gang banging their way around Europe on tour, this Sydney free-loving DJ collective are demanding more attention than an Attention Deficit Disorder suffer who’s injected blue Smarties into their eyeballs.

With an obvious belief in squeezing as many delights into one session as possible, these 2 CDs (totaling over 60 tracks) are one serious audio orgy.

Comprising of six members (one of which is half of Riot In Belgium), you could expect a mix that is a teen bit chaotic (read: carnage).

Well, it is — but in a truly brilliant way, hanging on to coherence by the seat of its drain piped pants, to deliver the excitement that only being serviced by a six-up can provide.

With a track selection that reads like a wet dream, the Bang Gang’s A&R skills take the obvious cream of the indie underground, but keep it fresh by working in A List remixes rather than the originals.

Full credit to The Bang Gang Deejays for having the will and the inclination to go after this many quality tracks.

If you live in Australia or New Zealand, you need to buy this mix compilation.

And if you don’t, I recommend you catch a Bang Gang DJ set performance soon.
