House/Electro Producer Clockwork Plays Foundation Room, 3.24.11

Ok Boston, here’s another opportunity to claim “I saw this producer in 2011 before he blew up” bragging rights. Although he’s only 20 years old at the moment, Henry “Clockwork” Steinway has gone straight from the bedroom to wearing the headliner hat in just two years. Initially renowned for his remix work, Clockwork’s alias does the talking: his renditions of other people’s tracks are functional, make the crowd lose it on the dancefloor, and, like that old grandfather clock in your mother’s dining room, just plain WORKS.

Clockwork has spent a great deal of time in both LA as well as New York. He has churned out official remixes for Crystal Castles and Snoop Dogg, and many of his original joints are getting played by MSTRKRFT, Kill The Noise, and Felix Cartel. Astute dance music afficiandos know full well that these guys are all A-listers, a place where Steinway will soon be headed himself, especially with a couple more high-profile remixes on his resume.

You can check out his mix below, as well as many of his originals on his soundcloud. Just don’t listen to the mix sitting down. Do some pilates or jumping jacks in your living room, or to hell with it and just straight up go to the gym, this is a bassline workout from one side of the book to the back. Once you’re through listening, just go ahead and mark tomorrow night on your calendar. Clockwork plays Foundation Room in Boston (15 Landsdown Street).
