This time the EP is a public download, we are pressing some Bobby C’s tracks soon on vinyl so this will be the last freebie EP from him, also look out for a regular video feature from Bobby and friends on the blog soon.


About The Artist: It’s not everyday a producer/DJ gets blogged by one of their favorite directors as is the case with Bobby C Sound TV who was recently blogged and called brilliant by Edgar Wright, director of such cult movies as Shaun Of The Dead, Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World and Hot Fuzz. Bobby C Sound TV is one Bobby Collins hailing from Denver, Colorado. He has been playing instruments from an early age and then a fateful show with Peanut Butter Wolf and Cut Chemist had him convinced on the spot that a pair of turntables were in his future. He has been DJing for the past 10 years and has played just about every venue in his home state including Red Rocks Amphitheater, The Fillmore as well as being the first artist in The First Bank Center (AEG’s new 8,000 seat flagship venue) for its VIP party. In 2010 Bobby was one of 20 DJ’s in the US selected to play the Sweatshop Mixer at The Coachella Music Festival. In early 2009 Bobby started messing around with a video DJ plug-in and soon after unveiled, “Bobby C Sound TV”. His love of cinema was combined with his 10 years of DJ experience to create a pastiche of pop-culture that is visually stimulating and danceable at the same time. His live mash up DJ approach was applied to create crowd rocking routines with some of the most memorable music videos, movie scenes and just about everything in between.

The past few years have seen him busier than ever on the production front with remixes and releases on 7 different labels worldwide and jumping on multiple top 10 lists for Juno Download and Beaport. Many more releases are on the way and his Soundcloud page has been getting thousands of plays and downloads each week while his youtube channel is fast approaching 150,000 plays. His tracks have been turning up in DJ sets all around the world as of late to packed dancefloors everywhere.

Bobby has shared the stage with a number of heavy-hitters including George Clinton and the P-funk Allstars (2 times), Pretty Lights (3 times), Thievery Corporation, Z-Trip (18 times), Rjd2 (2 times), Q-Bert, Blackalicious, De La Soul, The Pharcyde, Rakim, Madlib, DJ Yoda (2 times), Guru from Gangstarr, People Under the Stairs, Kid Capri, DJ P (2 times), DJ Greyboy, DJ Vadim (2 times), DJ Klever (2 times), DJ First Rate (Scratch Perverts UK), DJ Logic, DJ Spinna, Kid Koala, Cheb-I-Sabbah, Digital Underground, Naughty By Nature, Rudy Ray Moore a.k.a Dolomite, Maceo Parker, Kool Keith, Mike Relm, Tre Hardson of the Pharcyde, Daniel Johnston, Fishbone, Antibalas Afrobeat Orchestra, John Scofield, El Vez the Mexican Elvis, Corey Feldman and so on and so on.
