January 14, 2006Dat Politics
They are my new best friends.
Watch their video THIS WAY and then follow up with this one (most excellent!)
Be sure to visit the entire ski-pp site-- definitely worth the trip!
The group was formed in october 1998 and are a 4 piece unit based from the northern French city of Lille.
Three of the group’s members have been operating for several years under the name Tone Rec with 3 albums on the SubRosa label from Bruxelles, Belgium.
Dat Politics was simultaneously discovered by the London, UK based label Fat Cat and the Cologne, Germany based A-Musik label, who released their first records.
After that they started their own label Skipp.
They're an all-laptop quartet mixing click-beats with glitch-melodies and sounds, but they sound very unlike most other laptop musicians. Their music is a mixture between minimalism, electro - pop- acoustic & deconstructed techno, with a very joyful and humorous touch to it.
