CHKLZ, the DJ/producer duo, has been lighting up some on-point events lately. They’ve been hitting the biggest festivals and clubs, leaving fans buzzing with their funky house sets filled with positive energy. From one fest to the next, these guys are everywhere, and the crowds are all about it.
Just recently, CHKLZ just dropped a remix of Okilly Dokilly’s top single, “White Wine Spritzer,” and it’s amazing. They’ve taken this heavy metal classic and turned it into a groovy house anthem that’s impossible not to dance to. It’s the perfect blend of their style and the original’s quirky charm.
One member of CHKLZ are originally from the ‘Nedal’ band Okilly Dokilly, which was a crazy idea that turned into something no one could have predicted. Okilly Dokilly was a heavy metal band inspired by Ned Flanders from “The Simpsons.” They dressed like him, played metal, it doesn’t get much better than that when it comes to hard-rock leaning stuff with some irony to it.
What started as a joke among friends became a full-fledged band with a huge following. Their commitment to the theme was so spot-on that they caught the attention of “The Simpsons” producers. Their music video for “White Wine Spritzer” even got featured in an episode, boosting their profile massively and making everyone’s jaw drop (I’m sure!.)
Since the release of the remix, CHKLZ has been out on the road, certainly rinsing remix out.
