Oh, to remember the good old days when the biggest concern was how many pieces of gum you could fit in your mouth and which of your friends could blow the biggest bubble. Life's gotten harder since then—but not for Paradisko. In "Chewing Gun," the debut video from Istanbul-based duo Hakan Özkan and Hemi Behmoaras, the producers collect an army of gum-chewing friends as they mean mug around the park. This buzzing, piano-tinged funky house jam actually carries the perfect beat to chew along to. These guys know what they're doing. I'm just wondering why they've decided against bubble gum. Is there no Bubblicious in Turkey? Let's all chip in and send them some., Paradisko's debut EP, is out now with remixes from Xinobi, Mighty Mouse and Digits.
