Since 1999, DAT Politics is by far one of the most ecstatic electro party bands on the planet. Their remarkably energetic live shows explain the cult-like enthusiasm that surrounds the French electronic combo as they've been touring the world extensively over the years. DAT Politics channel a rough-edged turbo-pop mood through their laptops to create some of the most unexpectedly catchy and lively music ever assembled. The possibility of mistakes and chaos in their hot-wired dance tracks is achieved by approaching songwriting and performance the same way a garage band might. DAT Politics' new album Blitz Gazer is an exhilarating reboot in the band's career. Entirely recorded in Berlin in 2011 by the newly-formed duo, this new piece will certainly give satisfaction to the electro-maniac fanbase who will find in these 12 tunes their share of synthetic '80s hits, catchy loops and bouncy drum machines. Less expected, but pleasantly surprising, is their ability to turn the voltage level down by chanting neon-lite robo-ballads. Some dreamy melodic breaks rise in a rhythmic electric storm, exploring a brand-new aspect of the band's wide influences and possibilities. Blitz Gazer is a magnificent patchwork, a dynamic and fanciful mixture that only DAT Politics could have pulled off.
