Oh My Rockness

If you like Simian Mobile Disco, this is going to sound very familiar. A duo famous for their club-thumping remixes of "hot" indie bands (Klaxons, The Futureheads, Tom Vek) decides to record their own album of original electro-dance jams (recently released on Astralwerks) that slowly but surely saturates the city's nightlife scene.

Pretty much the only real difference between Digitalism and Simian Mobile Disco is their citizenship. Digitalism represents Germany, while Simian represents England. But both duos certainly know how to get a party started and have that party stay, um, started. If you like to dance to the sounds of laptops, synthesizers, samplers and Simian, then Digitalism is the band for you.
