Kush Kush, stylized as KUSH KUSH, is a German DJ and producer duo. They can be recognized by their Scandinavian hare masks, which intrigue the public while also concealing their identity. They are best known for their interpretations of well-known classics. [1]

Career

Their most successful release yet is called "Fight Back with Love Tonight", which samples White Town's hit single "Your Woman" from 1997. [2] Kush Kush's electronic reinterpretation of the song was especially popular in Russia, where it stayed in the Airplay Charts for 10 weeks, peaking on #1 [3] and also climbed the Shazam-Charts to #2. [4] The single was presented with a Platinum-Award in fall 2018. As a result of the success of "Fight Back with Love Tonight", Kush Kush played at international festivals such as Alfa Future People Festival [5] in Bolshoye Kozino and Europa Plus TV's Hit Non Stop Festival [6] in Sochi.

Shortly after, Kush Kush entered the Russian radio charts again, peaking at #59 [7] with their 2019 released song "SloMo". Most recently the duo released its single "I'm Blue" [8] based on the 90's global Eurodance-hit Blue (Da Ba Dee) by Eiffel 65.
