 Thunderheist
Stealing thunder so you move that
ass, the duo dubbed Thunderheist unleashes serious electrocrunk
boom bap. Ribcage - rattling bass breaks laced with
proper rhyming are flipped with digital booty bass,
80s-inspired electronic pop, and slowed down Southern
bounce, all fresh dipped in serious swagger. ??Dancefloors
get loose when Thunderheist reigns. Tunes like "Bubblegum',
'Suenos Dulces' and 'Horny' get bodies bumping. Music
blogs light up with repostings the moment they post
a new tune. DJs from all over the world drop them in
the mix. Press has come knocking, based on the smiling,
sweaty faces coming out of TH jam. Audiences for live
shows keep growing as word spreads. Their debut show
in Montreal in Fall 2006 was the stuff of legend, air
thick with the elation that all were bearing witness
to a new phenomenon. It's been a steady build ever since,
with more and more people packing out their live shows,
writing up and snatching their demo songs posted on
blogs all around the world, and visiting their website
and MySpace incessantly. Press came knocking very early
on, citing them as "2007 Noisemaker" (Montreal Mirror,
Jan 2007) and placing them on the cover without even
an EP or single officially out yet (Eye Magazine, March
2007). MySpace placed Thunderheist as a 'Featured Artist'
based on their incredible NXNE performance. NYC and
LA promoters constantly re-book them for shows. And
Canada has embraced them wholeheartedly, with successful
show runs in Eastern and Western Canada, CBC Radio 3
features, and more cover stories (Beatroue in Alberta).
And yes, all still without an album. ??It's not about
to slow down one bit. Thunderheist are about to hit
the studio to work on their debut album 'Neon Angels',
keep up with touring dates in Canada and select US cities,
embark on their first set of European dates in Aug 2007,
and field more and more press requests, remix offers
and guest vocal spots. Yeah, it's hectic. But such is
life when you on a mission to bring the party correct.
