Present day junglist Aphrodite is no relation to the classical, war-initiating, goddess of beauty, but he has been known to rock Paris (and London and New York and so on). Between such international gigs, the DJ, producer and label chief has been readying a full length LP for release in the United States.
MTV News caught up with Aphrodite (whose feminine moniker is taken from the name of a party he used to throw) at a recent gig, where he nonchalantly explained one reason the album has been taking some time to finish.
"It's quite a funny story," Aphrodite told MTV News.
Aphrodite said there's only a couple more of weeks of work left to finish the project. In the meantime, the prolific producer added that he will continue to release some of the 12 inches and dubplates that he's recently been spinning. Among those records is a jungle remix of Fatboy Slim's "The Rockafeller Skank."
