Globally renowned US uber-producer Jon Pegnato of LA Riots opens his elusive sample vaults for the first time, exclusively to Sounds to Sample.
Taking in the best of electro, nu-disco and tech-house, Disco-Electro is a shimmering collection of 450 drum loops, tops, bass, synth, music, fx and one-shots.
Clocking in at a whopping 286MB, the pack covers the slinky, shuffly rhythms of peak time house, but injects a heady dose of live funk, by incorporating live guitar, bass and snatches of jackin’ vocal.
Key-labeled and with each sample rolling in 2 or 4 bar variants, Disco Electro provides all the components for your next dancefloor smash.From drum hits to swoops, pads to fidgety bass, each element is designed with maximal floor-melting precision in mind. In all the pack delivers 117 loops, 89 fx and one-shot elements and 244 drum hits (kick, snare, hat, perc, clap, cymbal).

Looking for next month’s secret weapon. well, leave it to your good ol’ friends at FunkyHouseMusic.com to inform you of something a lot of heads are going to sleep on:
Alright. Here’s the situation. Jon Pegnato resonates as uptempo, funky, sometimes electro, sometimes techy, but always in yo’ face kind of house music. Bryan Jones resonates as Chi-town house, disco loops, and gliding grooves. Put those two together, and what do we have.
A downright, take-no-prisoners, funkier than yo’ momma with a peg leg & a broken kickstand whateva’. this is the new sound! Deep house snobs and ravers alike will get down once again together, and just not care. Pegnato hit a grand slam out the park and might be credited with inventing a new sound while he was at it. not sure what he is brewing in those kegs over in Los Angeles, but his mind is working in innovative ways. Keep up the excellent work young man. our ears are perked!.. Read more

Dancerecords.com is offering an exclusive release off the newly formed domestic label – Atel – and let us tell you, this one is a banger!
Probably one of the best uptempo, hard, dirty, filtered, funky affairs heard in some time (thoughts of JJ Flores & Steve Smooth’s “Release” came to mind upon first listen), we had to do a feature on this release to showcase it properly. Big ups to Chris Bohn & Jon Pegnato for putting out such a fine package!

Fresh new DJ mix from Jon Pegnato…
Some say with the turn of a season the Electronic Dance Culture embraces a genre and propels its popularity beyond its other musical counterparts. Most would agree that the fluctuation in popularity has nothing to do with forces of nature; rather at the center of any successful uprising you’ll find innovative arrangements, ass-shaking beats and unparalleled production. Take multiple EPs of this nature, within a reasonably short time frame, and you have the formula for a dominant dance genre. 2004 found House Music re-immersing within the EDM Culture with strong production from major players across the globe. Enter Jon Pegnato. This Los Angeles based DJ/Producer has been making waves with groundbreaking music and floor filling performances earning him a nomination in URB Magazine’s Top 100 of 2004 and multiple gigs throughout the United States.
Jon was kind enough to accept our interview. Here is a small piece in the life of Mr. Pegnato’
FHM: Where do you hail from?
JP: Los Angeles, CA ‘ USA
FHM: Were you a DJ first, or a producer first?
JP: DJ
FHM: As a relatively new DJ/Producer, you are certainly experiencing a lot of new emotions. With that in mind, what is the most frustrating thing about being a producer in today’s dance culture?
JP: It’s a lot harder than I thought it would be. It seems at times, that if you’re not producing a mainstream sound, or kissing ass, then you’re brushed aside as average, or not an up-to-par producer. I guess that is just the way the cookie crumbles.
FHM: Tell us about your favorite gig so far as a performer? Was it stateside, or an international affair? Describe the vibe of the experience.
JP: One of my favorite experiences on the road thus far has been in Grand Rapids, MI. The people there are just dope. They all come in from surrounding cities, to drink, have a good time, and enjoy house music; which is what I’m all about! I find that the vibe in smaller club settings is always a better experience for me, than larger events. I like being able to talk to people, and see them up close. I don’t like being that ‘dot’ on stage. Plus, I love being able to leave the decks to get another beer, or two. Read more
