Future Classic Label Night feat: Holy Ghost!
- Event Has Already Passed The event you are trying to view has already passed
Holy Ghost! have announced the cancellation of their Australian tour, citing the untimely death of friend Jerry Fuchs last week. This event at the Civic Hotel is cancelled an will not be going ahead
Holy Ghost! are one of the most exciting acts to come out of the current indie/disco scene. Born and bred in New York city, Alex Frankel & Nick Millhiser base themselves in Brooklyn and are signed to the legendary DFA label, home to the likes of LCD Soundsystem, Hot Chip and The Juan MacLean. Their first single on DFA, 'Hold On' was released in 2007 and made them the toast of the New York club scene, quickly sending waves of excitement through the electronic music community worldwide. Their sound is classic DFA - clean and powerful with amazing percussion sounds.
Mysteriously popping up as writing, recording and touring members of The Juan MacLean, live performers with LCD Soundsystem on Late Night With David Letterman (during which Frankel wore a Holy Ghost! T-shirt) as well as playing on a number of DFA remix productions, Holy Ghost! have quickly become one of the most exciting acts on the label's already bulging roster. In the last year alone they have remixed MGMT, Phoenix, Moby, Cut Copy, In Flagranti, Curses & Mock & Toof earning them releases on cult labels including Modular, Permanent Vacation, Kitsune, Groove and Mute.
On their latest single �I Will Come Back�, the boys bring their love for old-school synthesizers to the fore in a five and a half-minute dance floor epic, featuring the angelic voices of the Brooklyn Youth Chorus. Due out through DFA shortly, the 12� version will feature remixes from Dj Mehdi and fellow US disco heads Classixx.
