Taiwanesisk fødte David Wangs aka Mochipets fader er raketingeniør, moren arbejder i en børnehave og selv hænger han ud med et klubslæng fra alle verdenshjørner. Æblet falder i dette tilfælde ikke langt fra stammen, når Wang som Mochipet giver frit spil til det indre, elektroniske legebarn.
Wangs egne produktioner bruger løs af minimale beats, blød breakcore og asiatisk legende melodier. Men modsat de utallige tegn i det taiwanesiske alfabet, er der ikke mange effekter under kølerhjelmen. Oftest er de hørt før og i sidste ende lyder Mochipet som en lirekassemand, der parafraserer stilforvirret og ikke skaber meget på egen hånd. Til gengæld skorter det ikke på legesyge, hvor han sjældent mister grebet om energien. Men 'disco', det er det ikke. Du får electro, breakcore og techno à la Kid 606 med en snert af asiatiske luner for hele indskuddet.
CopyFlex er en god sund blanding af rave, dancehall, punk techno, eurocrunk, bmore, baile funk, electro, glitch, breaks, hiphop og mashupz. Han har huseret det københavnske undergrundsmiljø for hårdt og nu rammes 1000Fryd sammen med amerikanske Mochipet!
