It's how they call the new show apparently. The videos from the first shows are promising ! More synths, two drummers ! I'll definitely catch them in Paris next month.

EDIT: make that THREE drummers. THREE !

Holy shit, I've just seen that they play at the Zurich Open Air.
This festival has a Line Up straight from my dreams  :
Chemical Brothers
Digitalism
Soulwax
2manydjs

Oh shit :O You have to go !

Yep, three drumsets with accompanied drummers on stage. I'm sure you'll enjoy the show

Oh shit :O You have to go !

Yep, I'm seriously considering a day ticket for friday with Digitalism, Soulwax and 2manydjs. Chems will play on thursday, but I already have tickets for their show in Germany. Although two days also sound tempting.

Oh, I went to the website and saw the full lineup. It only made things worse.

That's why I am actually thinking about going to this. I don't know that it's going to happen, but I sure am god damn set on TRYING to make it happen.

Seriously--I just can't believe how much of this is all within my top 20. Top 10, even.

This was released on Soulwax's label DeeWee, and it sounds a lot like something the Dewaele brothers would produce. Soulwax or not, I'm listening to it on repeat

My free Apple Music subscription has long expired by now. I guess if any of you clever people felt like recording THIS, that would be nice...

Are you soure one needs a subscription to watch this? The only time I ever used this Apple/iTunes thingy was last year to watch the Roundhouse gig, and it didn't even require an iAccount (or whatever they're called).

So, did anyone got a chance to record it?

Edit: found it on youtube 

A couple of those DEWE releases are absolutely ace.

YUUUUUUUUM

That drumkit on the right looks weird

I've seen Soulwax at Rock en Seine for their last gig of the tour. It was pretty great, with a lot of new tracks, that sounded like a mix of the "old" soulwax and the more electro nite versions. Lots of singing, less crazy synth lines.

I really like this new track, the bassline is crazy !

I like that they played that Belgica track live. Good shit.
