About Kissy Sell Out
Kissy Sell Out is a British DJ/remixer/producer who established himself quickly in England's underground dance scene, mostly for his remixes, many of which are Internet-circulated bootleg mash-ups of popular songs. Born Thomas Bisdee and originating from Essex, Kissy Sell Out began his prolific remix and production output in 2006. The San City High label released a few of his own productions, including "Her" and "Permanent Record," but for the most part, he concentrated on remixes, including a few for the Fat Fox label ("Girls in Hats" and "Raw" by the Loose Cannons; "The Mistake" by Bleach Eating Pimps). This early work as well as his DJ performances attracted major-label interest, and in 2007 he was commissioned to remix tracks by All Saints ("Chick Fit"), Gwen Stefani ("Wind It Up"), Mark Ronson ("Stop Me"), Dragonette ("Take It Like a Man"), Groove Armada ("Song 4 Mutya"), and Sugababes ("About You Now"). Also in 2007 he signed to Lavolta Records, which released the "Her" single, and he saw Hooj Choons release a limited-edition 12" of his Human League remix, "The Things That Dreams Are Made Of." His profile continued to grow in 2008, thanks in part to increasing demand for his DJ performances and his continuing output as a remixer/producer. ~ Jason Birchmeier, All Music Guide

Girls Sugababes |
| By roping in credible producers such as Richard X and peppering their songs with up to the minute electro touches, Sugababes have managed to create songs that appealed as much to the cynical music press as it did to teenage girls. Throw in a revolving door line up and a media fascination with the bands perceived moodiness and you have a recipe for the most successful girl band of the new millennium. However on "Girls", a cover of Ernie K-Does early R&B classic "Here Comes The Girls", The "Babes" lack any of the inventiveness that made singles such as "Freak Like Me" and "Push The Button" so enjoyable. As countless artists have proved over the years, there's nothing wrong with uncovering a hidden gem and putting your own spin on things; Soft Cell's "Tainted Love" springs to mind as a good example. However, you can't help thinking that The Sugababes' producers have hardly been "diggin' in the crates" to uncover "Here Come The Girls" since it has been used extensively by Boots over the last couple of years to sell beauty products. Throw in a few predictable Mark Ronson style horn riffs and you have a sub Atomic Kitten mess that tarnishes a lot of the bands efforts to be taken seriously. | |
