The Slips


These guys have been around since 2007, getting some blog love at the end of last year. I've got to say they passed me by at the time, which is a shame, 'cause they're really good. On IAMSOUND Records, home to Black Ghosts, Little Boots and Florence and the Machine, they jumped out of the studio where they've worked with Madonna, Gwen Stefani, Bjork, Massive Attack and FischerSpooner and released a single 'Girls At The Back Up' in the States at the start of '08. A UK debut 'SuperBeat' followed as a 12" limited release and the remix of CSS 'Music is my Hot Sex', which got a lot of love from Vicarious (where did he go??) Bliss, came out as a promo CD in the same year.

The label bumpf says they're influenced by Digitalism, Sebastian, Diplo and Cornelius and you can hear all of the above in their tunes. Glitch disco rules!
