DJ Axel has released an all mashup album titled “Breakin’ The Law” on his own label Holden Records. The mashups combine Hip Hop, Rock, Disco, Funk and Ballroom combining artists as diverse as Van Halen vs T.I., Lena Horne vs 50 Cent and Stevie Wonder vs Snoop Dogg. “Breakin’ The Law” is now for sale at over 25 stores in major markets across the USA. Since the CD is an unlicensed bootleg album, most distributors are unwilling to carry the title. Axel took it upon himself to distribute the album by calling and visiting independent record stores. Retail and consumer response has been so positive that “Breakin’ The Law” is now in its third pressing.
“Whenever I play Axel’s CD in the store someone says how great it is and buys it, 2 times I didn’t even get through the first song before I sold it.” – Chris Seibert, Manager of Just Play Music, Santa Barbara, CA
Live shows, radio airplay, blog coverage and in-store play are driving the album’s success. Club Bootie, America’s only all mashup club, hosted Axel’s album release parties in San Francisco, Los Angeles, New York and Burning Man. “Breakin’ The Law” has been added to over 150 college radio stations and has appeared on various CMJ charts. The album reached #1 on the playlists of six different major market college radio stations.
DJ Axel is a mild mannered finance guy by day and a crazy mashup DJ by night. His tracks have been featured on radio stations across the globe including Indie 103 (L.A.), Live 105 (SF), DC 101, and XFM Radio London. Axel has a monthly residency at the Viper Room in Los Angeles and is hired to DJ at high profile clubs and special events for clients including Warner Bros, Estee Lauder and New Line Cinema.
