Anyone who went to see the Brothers at Hammerstein a few years back when they played the CMJ Festival will remember this opening act. They were pretty tight, loud and hard...they are playing the Gramercy Theater on the 15th of September, day after Underworld, should be fun.


Forgot to add, they are playing NYC

I love the couple of DJ sets of theirs that I've picked up but I haven't heard any of their own work really.

I desperately want to but it's not released over here until September. The Justice album just came out two weeks ago!!! (And Digitalism not long before that.)

Echo Irishfan's comment - get the 2cd version if you can. Well worth the pennies.

The new UNKLE - anyone got this, and what's the verdict?

Darkstar you can easily get it on p2p.


or simply watch official videos :


"It's the Beat" music video

http://youtube.com/watch?v=HZPXgQSPm8A


"I Believe" music video

http://youtube.com/watch?v=iDKw-pL9VN8


"Hustler" music video (hot hot !)

http://youtube.com/watch?v=CTmo2HsmwZs


"Sleep Deprivation" live @ Brighton

http://youtube.com/watch?v=9rsYYKyfd-0


Sleep Deprivation is by far, my favourite non-chems track of the year. Supa-awesome tune

Yeah, I've heard Hustler before. I don't usually download A) Too lazy to convert to .wav so I can listen in my car (I don't have an mp3 player in my car) and B) I like owning CDs (and being a moron and paying for them).


But I might look into eBaying it on payday.

I think you should import it. The CD here is pretty cheap (12 euros for the double CD)

The only bad thing about the album is that it's fucking short (35 mn) and the second CD just contain dubs and instrumentals... a bit weak, but the music is so good anyway


Also, I saw them live, totally drunk, one of the best electronic live I've ever seen

One of my fave acts. Great album. 'I Believe' was my tune of the holiday season.
