ARTIST PROFILE (GERMAN + ENGLISH)
WaWa are Polish duo Vic and Bojan. As soon as house music arrived in
Warsaw they knew they’d found their calling in life. Over the past
six years WaWa have built a solid reputation as top notch DJs and producers.
While on a record buying trip to Amsterdam in 2000 the boys left some
of their work at the Rhythm Imports shop. Rhythm Imports loved it and
invited them back to record more. The first release was “No Problem” on
the Fresh Fruit label. Defected sub-label Fluential licensed the track
and released it as the No Problem EP. That promptly broke into the British
dance charts and was played out by the likes of Carl Cox, Pete Tong and
Roger Sanchez. Fluential and Rhythm Import are still repressing it three
years after its release. Next came the “GK” EP, also on Fluential,
which features guitars by Gerald from Banda Sonora and drew airtime on
BBC Radio 1. 2004 brought the release of “The After Party” with
vocals by none other than Eddie Amador. Since then their reputation has
been building at a rapid rate in the dance World with Brian Tappert (Soulfuric),
Stonebridge, Warren Clarke, & ATFC all being avid supporters of WaWa.
WaWa’s remix work has also brought success. Defected Records were
so impressed with WaWa’s reworking of the club anthem “E
Samba” by Junior Jack that they gave it a special release under
the title “E WaWa” & went on to be a 1 selling dance
record. Judge Jules (Radio One) was heavily supported their remix of
Francesco Diaz & Young Rebels ‘Ibiza’, playing it no
less than 5 times on his show!
Last year saw WAWAs profile raised even further thanks to their excellent
remix of Stonebridge’s ‘SOS’ (Apollo / Universal) which
was championed by everyone from Steve Smart (Kiss) & Andi Durrant
(Galaxy) and later went on to not only be a 1 club record in the UK,
but the 1 club record of 2007 in the main Music Week club chart! Further
club chart & dance radio success came soon after thanks to their
remix for top American artist, JoJo (Mercury), (another top 3 club chart
hit and a huge favourite with listeners of Radio One’s top ‘Floorfillers’ show),
Hilary Duff’s ‘Stranger’, which was dropped peak-time
at the opening party of the holy-grail of superclubs, Space in Ibiza
and awarded ‘Tune of the Week’ in their weekly podcast! (“Stranger” went
on to top the U.S. Billboard Club chart, as well as hit 2 in the UK club
chart), and their remix of hot Positiva signing, Che’Nelle’s “I
Fell In Love With A DJ” was another top 10 club chart smash.
It was the boys remix of huge bassline smash, “Heartbroken” by
T2, that ascended the demand for WAWA even further. Their rework was
not only supported by all the biggest jocks but also played an unprecedented
7 times on Radio One’s “Floorfillers”, with the shows
DJ’s commenting on air how much they loved them!
As for what this year has in store; it can only get bigger and better
for WAWA. The World’s 1 DJ, Armin Van Buuren recentely honored
their new mix of Chicane’s “Spirit” as ‘Tune
of the Week’, as voted for by listeners of his Kiss show, while
their Cahill remix of “Trippin On You” is already making
a huge impact in the sets of the World’s biggest players. With
new solo productions about to be unleashed, WAWA’s star will be
shining brighter than ever in 2008.
