DIRTYPHONICS
LAUNCH DIRTY TV
WITH “IRREVERENCE TOUR” VIDEO SERIES
DEBUT ALBUM ‘IRREVERENCE’
OUT NOW ON DIM MAK RECORDS
NORTH AMERICAN “IRREVERENCE TOUR” DATES CONFIRMED
 |
After massive performances at this year’s Coachella, French electronic dance music quartet DIRTYPHONICS has launched Dirty TV with the first episode of their “Irreverence Tour” video series. Following the band on their current North American “Irreverence Tour,” the video series brings the DIRTYPHONICS experience and live show to life. The first episode of the series follows the DIRTYPHONICS crew in full-out debauchery: naked girls, stage dives, skateboarding, tattoos and more. DIRTYPHONICS will continue to release several episodes of the video series throughout the “Irreverence Tour.” Watch Episode 1 of the “Irreverence Tour” video series here: http://youtu.be/Rz861Yk6j4I.
DIRTYPHONICS are currently in full effect on their 30+ date “Irreverence Tour” in support of their debut full-length album IRREVERENCE, out now on Dim Mak Records. On IRREVERENCE, the Paris-based group—Charly, Thomas, Pho and Pitchin—merge heavy bass music, drum n’ bass, dubstep and electro with grimy club energy, supported by collaborations from the likes of Steve Aoki, Modestep, Liela Moss (vocalist of The Duke Spirit) and Foreign Beggars. Fans are already eating up “DIRTY,” the first single from the album, and “Walk In The Fire,” out now as part of a three-song EP package including remixes by Schoolboy and Culprate. Listen to the “Walk In The Fire” EP here: http://goo.gl/yZ4xn. Listen to IRREVERENCE in full on SoundCloud: http://snd.sc/YpuQC3.
Check out what the media is saying about DIRTYPHONICS and IRREVERENCE:
“Irreverence might just be what Beethoven or Rachmaninov would sound like if they were composing electronic for 2013 audiences.” ★★★★☆
—Deanna Rilling, VEGAS SEVEN (2/25/13)
“They’re an electronic dance music band but don’t try to pigeonhole them; all the members previously played in heavy metal bands and there’s an incredible classical piano solo that opens the album. Soon enough though the beats start to pop on songs like ‘Stage Divers’ featuring Steve Aoki; Modestep, Liela Moss and Foreign Beggars also guest.”
—Kevin Wierzbicki, CAMPUS CIRCLE (3/28/13)
“France’s electro-dance quartet, Dirtyphonics, wants you to get DIRTY with its debut full-length record for Dim Mak Records, Irreverence. Self-proclaimed “boundary pushers,” the group shows significant personal growth from its previous EP releases and leaves you with a promise of more great things to come. Irreverence is a notice nailed to the door of every music snob, electronic dance fan, and casual listener to take heed: Dirtyphonics is here to stick around and make some waves.”
—Julie Hall, MXDWN(3/22/2013)
“worthy challengers for the pinnacle of the French electronic pyramid.”
—Derek Staples, CONSEQUENCE OF SOUND (3/29/2013)
“France’s Dirtyphonics are one of the most exciting acts to emerge from the drum and bass and dubstep scene. Their top notch productions and remixes have already made them a Beatport favorite, but their live show is a whole different monster, where each of the four musicians man a set of turntables and create a completely unique live production on stage. These guys are no joke – and after scoring huge hits with remixes of everyone from Skrillex to Marilyn Manson, they’re back with a new album on Steve Aoki’s Dim Mak Records, entitled Irreverence.”
—Justin Charles, LIVE FOR LIVE MUSIC (4/9/2013)
