chilli Posted November 14, 2005 Report Share Posted November 14, 2005 interesting music & The Tunnels present a corking line-up:-Hot Chip + tour support Grovesnor (very mysterious outfit)And A Laptop / Dj Set From Chris KnoxSat 19th Nov 05The TunnelsDoors 8pmEntrance 6Hot Chipjust before they go out on tour again with LCD Soundsystem & the night before they play OPTIMO in Glasgow, read on:- At the tender age of 7, Alexis Taylor began listening to Prince and dancing on his bed to the sounds of Dirty Mind and The Black Album, a habit which has continued into adult life. Meanwhile, Joe Goddard began heavily grazing on hip-hop records in the early 1990s, a diet which consolidated into an unusually passionate relationship with records by the Souls of Mischief and Madlib. The duo collided during an impromptu wrestling match in the school playground, and the result was 'Hot Chip'. Soon enough, the funk began to tell, and with the addition of artist Owen Clarke (who used to dine with Alexis during 'packed lunch') on synthesizer, Felix Martin on drum machine and percussion, and Al Do-it on pretty much anything he could lay his hands on, Hot Chip have embarked on a new era of sonic exploration. The band like to think of themselves as a modern day pop group with the spirit of Brian Wilson, the passion of Public Enemy and the niceness of the Neptunes. Hot Chip have a sound balanced between the soulful and the experimental, and they try to have a sense of humour too. http://www.hot-chip.net/Their London date @ the end of the tour with Grovesnor, is already SOLD OUT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
