Bio: Streetlab is an electronic-rock music duo from NYC formed in 2001 by 'Coz' and Ryan. Taking the role as in-studio producers and songwriters, the two ... (more) began by remixing classic rock songs with the dance-floor in mind. Being raised on the music scenes of the early 90's, the two attempt to erase boundaries - making music that appeals to both the rock and electronic world.

After receiving much support from BBC Radio 1, Streetlab inspired indie-rock label Kanine Records, where they contributed remixes to their catalog for Mixel Pixel and Professor Murder. Astralwerks and Invisible Records were up next, receiving remixes for artists Prophet Omega and Rx. The two also landed a mix on 'The Limitless Potential', a compilation of Nine Inch Nails remixes from the album Year Zero.

More recently, Streetlab teamed up with NYC DJ Eamon Harkin, and NYC club promoter GBH for mixes of Crystal Castles and Black DanieL. From there, they connected with Parisian acts PlayGround and Thieves Like Us for remix treatments. By early 2008 the two began sneaking original material up onto the Web. Internet buzz and more radio support from Sirius' Liquid Todd followed with remixes for SubPop's Kinski and IHeartComix's Heartsrevolution. Streetlab continue their focus into '09. Gearing up for the release of their first self-titled EP on October 7th, 2008, as well as many live dates into 2009....Stay tuned.
