Kapote

Kapote is the DJ and producer name of Mathias Modica. Head and creative director of Toy Tonics records and formerly know as Munk (Gomma records). Modica worked in the dance music world since 2004. Producing and releasing music with artists such as LCD Soundsystem, Peaches, Asia Argento, Whomadewho, Nancy Whang, Nick McCarthy of Franz Ferdinand, Coeo, Cody Currie and others. In his tracks Kapote plays a lot of keyboard and synthesizer solos himself, besides percussion, bass and other instruments.

To create a new form of label universe – for the upcoming forms of house and disco (not techno, trance or EDM that’s the opposite vibe) – he started Toy Tonics with 2 friends.

With Toy Tonics Kapote created a label family with all kind of musicians, keyboarders and drummers who also are DJs and record collectors, that stand for a very strong own funky musical vibe.

As a DJ, he normally plays only at Toy Tonics Jams – but can be requested for special solo gigs too.

Kapote aka Mathias Modica, who some might also know from his former label Gomma records, where he produced under the name of Munk, plays a wild mix of funk orientated music. From rare disco edits and Italian disco to modern quality house and futuristic broken beat and funky new wave. And of course, he plays a lot of Toy Tonics records. It’s always euphoria.
