Anabolic Frolic is a happy hardcore DJ from Canada who is known for the Happy 2b Hardcore CD series and the Hullabaloo! promotion he throws in Toronto, Ontario. His real name is Chris Samojlenko. He was born in Ottawa, Canada in 1974 and was raised by his grandmother.

Chris Samojlenko first started being interested in Happy Hardcore upon listening to a randomly chosen UK import mixed tape at the now defunct rave shop X-static in 1995. He taught himself to DJ on a pair of used turntables bought from a pawnshop for $100 Canadian dollars, because it was the only way he could listen to the music he loved in Toronto, or anywhere in North America then, mainly because he didn't go to raves at the time. Frolic began importing and re-selling Happy Hardcore vinyl from the UK.

At age 21, Samojlenko became interested in it as a lifestyle. He started Nokturnal Records out of his bedroom, importing and selling vinyl records online. In 1996, he moved into a small, windowless office, sleeping on the floor for the next two years while trying to make a go of his DJ career and his events production company, Hullabaloo!.

He was signed by Steve Levy, a co-owner of the international music label Moonshine Records, after sending them an unsolicited mixed tape and, according to his own website, a faked magazine article he had a friend write for him.

The first Happy 2b Hardcore release in 1997 sold 100,000 copies. Chris also met Robin Grainer that year—a fan from Southern California who would become his wife.

In 2000, Samojlenko was banned from ever entering the United States due to visa violations, but this ban was lifted after a period of three years. To add to his legal problems, his American fiancée at the time also did not have status in Canada. Despite these professional and personal uncertainties, however, Samojlenko put out Happy2bHardcore Chapters Four and Five, producing two of the tracks on the latter , as well as continuing to organise his Hullabaloo events.

Currently, there are eight Happy 2b Hardcore albums by Anabolic Frolic released, and he co-hosted an online radio show at Happy Hour Radio with his "DJ crony" Silver1. HappyHourRadio ceased late 2004/early 2005 and the last Hullabaloo! event was held on July 14 2007 (One More Group Hug). The next Hullabaloo! event is set for some time in February of 2008.

Notes

  1. ^ Feels So Right was an older track that was remixed by Cru-L-T and Frolic. Cru-L-T has since mentioned that Frolic taking producer's credit on this is questionable at best.
  2. ^ Shelter Me was written by Devastate and Frolic. Yet again, Frolic's role in its actual creation is questionable.
