Jakarta (DJ)
Jakarta is a French electronic music production team, consisting of Danny Wild, Alan Pride, David Kane, and Dave King.[1] Their work is available on Hypetraxx Records, and has been remixed by Mondotek. Their music is in the tribal house style, but with a childlike voice. Their most relevant tracks are "Superstar" and "One Desire", which did well on the French charts in 2008.[2]
Their first single, "One Desire", was distributed by Airplay Records for France, Universal (Belgium, Spain), Dancestreet (Germany), Sony BMG (Mexico), TMC Nordic (Scandinavia), Magic Records (Poland), and Teta (Israel). "One Desire" stayed at number 2 on the charts for four months in 2008.[3]
The group created two 3D animated video clips with characters that are mostly babies. Their main character is Totosse, a dancing baby with a red Mohawk haircut.
Still popular in the French club scene, their year old album "BabyStar" includes the following songs:
Tracks
- "Radio Latina"
- "Leave You (Fred De F Radio Edit)"
- "Superstar"
- "Time to Time"
- "One Desire (Mondotek Radio Edit)"
- "Around the Sun (Gregori Klosman Remix)"
- "Six Little Eggs"
- "My Girlfriend (David Kane Remix)"
- "Summer Night (Bluework's Palace, Blackstream Edit)"
- "Kiss Me (Fred De F Remix)"

- "Time is Ticking"
"American Dream" was also a song produced by the French group in 2005. Other songs such as "Smile" and "Time is Ticking" prove to not be official songs by the group but fanmade or edited versions of their original songs.
