The latest entry in the "DJ Kicks" series is being taken care of by Hot Chip. Some previous artists who have been featured include Kruder & Dorfmeister, The Glimmers, Chicken Lips, Carl Craig, and Tiga.
This 5 man electro-pop group from London is fronted by Joe Goddard and Alex Taylor.
Since their debut album "Coming on Strong" Hot Chip has done just that by playing out at some of the biggest festivals and events around the world. They have appeared at Glastonbury, Big Day Out, Sonar and will be at this year's Coachella and Bonnaroo Festival.
Their selection for this mix is as varied as the members of the band. From new wave icon New Order, Jazz legend Etta James, to Minimal House stars Dominik Eulberg and Gabriel Ananda, this CD rolls them all in one. Even the master of the ivory’s Ray Charles is brought in for the outro.
"DJ Kicks: Hot Chip" will be released on May 21st.
