I-F

I-F (short for Inter-Ference; real name Ferenc E. van der Sluijs) is a producer and DJ based in in The Hague, The Netherlands. He is a former member of the Dutch electro pioneers Unit Moebius. In 1997 he produced the track "Space Invaders Are Smoking Grass", which became a huge underground dance hit and is often credited the earliest example of Electroclash, although I-F himself has been of critical interest in the Electroclash scene. The album Fucking Consumer was released in 1998 on the Disko B label, followed by "The Man From Pack" the next year. In 1999 he also made the highly influential "Mixed Up In the Hague Vol. 1", which has been cited by many, including Morgan Geist [Juzwiak, Richard: "Unclassics: An Interview With Morgan Geist," "Stylus", 11/22/04.] , as being the catalyst that brought renewed interest in Italo Disco.

He was featured on the seminal 2002 Ghostly International compilation, Disco Nouveau. I-F has also recorded as The Parallax Corporation with Intergalactic Gary.

Nowadays he runs a record label called Viewlexx. He is also the man behind the internet radio station CBS (Cybernetic Broadcasting System).
