Chromeo, a Special Duo!

This week, I take a suggestion of one of you and I’ll talk about Chromeo. This electrofunk duo is from Montreal and is formed by two childhood friends, Dave 1 (David Macklovitch, lead vocal) and P-Thugg (Patrick Gemayel). They like to say that they are "the only successful Arab/Jewish partnership since the dawn of human culture." In the Macklovitch family, the music and the talent seem very present! The brother of David, Alain Macklovitch, who is known under the name “A-Trak”, is a DJ rather important in the music industry.

Their music has a big retro sound, it’s the thing which distinguich them from the others. They have three studio albums (She’s in Control, Fancy Footwork and Business Casual) and three mixed compilations. We can hear some of their songs, for example, in certain snowboard, surf and dance movies or in certain video games. So, maybe you already heard the song “Fancy Footwork” in the movie Step Up 3D!

I think that it’s an interesting duo and I really like the sound of their songs “Hot Mess” and “Fancy Footwork”! And you, what is your impression of them? Do you have other propositions?
