CHROMEO – NIGHT BY NIGHT (Electro/DiscoPop – Canada)

Chromeo is a Montreal-based electrofunk duo whose music is described as “a shameless return to the glistening, sex-saturated synthpop which ruled the eighties.”

The duo is composed of P-Thugg (Patrick Gemayel) on keyboards, synthesizers, and talk box, and Dave 1 (David Macklovitch) on guitar and lead vocals. The two childhood friends jokingly describe themselves as “the only successful Arab/Jewish partnership since the dawn of human culture.” For your information, David Macklovitch is the older brother of A-Trak (Alain Macklovitch).

Highlights of their 2004 debut album She’s in Control include the club tracks “Needy Girl”, “Mercury Tears”, “Rage!”, and “Destination: Overdrive”. In early 2007 Chromeo supported indie rock group Bloc Party on their British tour. They also released the single “Fancy Footwork” as well as their second album of the same name.
