To celebrate this year’s World Cup, we’ve found the most football-obsessed DJs in electronic music and asked them to “represent” their home countries and share their predictions for this year’s championship.

On Switzerland’s side we’ve got Shakedown, the duo made up of brothers Stéphane and Sébastien Kohler (aka Stephan Mandrax and Seb K.), known for their sultry, disco-influenced tracks for Panorama, Defected and Wall of Sound.

Personal bias aside, who do you think will really emerge as champions this year?

England.

How well do you think your national team will perform and what players should we be watching out for?

Not much to hope for, unfortunately. Eren Derdiyok is the man.
 


What has been your favourite World Cup so far?



Mexico ‘70.

What would be your ideal track for your team’s World Cup Song this year?

Electric Light Orchestra, ‘Don’t Bring Me Down’.

What songs would you pick for when your country wins and what song for when you lose?



Wins: Blondie, ‘One Way or Another’
.
Loses: Beck, ‘Loser’
 .


Finally, where will you be watching the tournament this year?

Wherever we’ll be in Europe when good games are on.
