I'd describe their music as electro that sounds retro, but at the same time very up-to-date and glitchy. Well produced and lots of digital tricks (bit of an IDM edge) as an update to the traditional sounds. The overall vibe has a lot of fun and attitude to it.
Personally, I rate the album they put out last year as one of the best things to come out in 2004. And Kero is a very cool guy and interesting producer, definitely worth seeing in his own right. ~David ---------- Original Message ------------- Subject: Re: (313) smash tv in the us Date: Tue, 08 Mar 2005 17:22:08 -0800 From: James Hurlbut <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> I plan on checking this out when they come to SF, but have never heard of them. The bpitchcontrol site is in german and the audio links don't work, so anyone have a description of their sound or links to audio? I'm blindly pigeonholing them as intelligent tech-house considering the channels I am hearing about them from but I haven't a clue.
