Une brève histoire: Pocketknife caught the DJing bug as a teenager in Iowa when he befriended DJ Wolf (original 70s disco/deep house jock who rocked it with Lil' Louis in Chi) and then honed his craft with Theo Parrish (Sound Signature) while the two were in art school together. Production was inevitable, as Pocketknife started to make tracks while attending grad school in Detroit. Now based in Brooklyn, "Mr. Hockney Peacockney" throws down with Cousin Cole as Flagrant Fowl dropping classic jams as well as their own unique remixes.

Hey, do you heared "The Ultimate Mix Compilation Volume 10" yet? 170 Hits in 3 great Megamixes! The best from the last month. You can hear them on "The Ultimate Mix Compilation" myspace profile!
Underwater, scream still goes round.. The fucking Little Mermaid is dead. The combo to destroy this icon ? A stroke of bass in one ear, a guitar riff in the other, a cowbell in the head, everything plugged in the Marshall and surrounded by disreputable characters applauding slyly. The rock fell in the depths of the Oresund Strait.. You understand nothing? Revise your geography or simply listen...
Plane, boat, child’s scooter or autostop.. Everyone wants to go to Copenhagen…
