Damn good. New Chemical Brothers? Yes, can agree! ...very energetic with powerful beats” (8/10 DJ Boogie Mafia)
Imagine the sound of the Chemical Brothers playing football in the park with African Headcharge. Or The Drummers Of Burundi taking a wrong turn on the way to the WOMAD festival and ending up playing a free rave in a car park in Bracknell.
Welcome to Recycler, a world where two young Frenchmen take sounds from untold diverse sources, squish it all together and call it “music.”
“Damn good. New Chemical Brothers? Yes, can agree! very good crowd reaction – very energetic with powerful beats” (8/10 DJ Boogie Mafia)
In a previous incarnation, Fab and Tcherno (the creative minds behind Recycler) were part of French industrial/rock/dance group MAT, achieving minor success in Europe and support slots with Consolidated and Fugazi. Influenced by the work of Meat Beat Manifesto, MAT had always been about merging different musical elements together to make something new. Forming Recycler, the duo chose to take the possibilities of this fusion further and create dance music unlike anything else.
Big thumping tribal drums, dirty electronic beats, soulful vocals, the intimacy of a sweaty club, the excitement of a rave – this describes in part what they capture so well in their recordings and when playing live.
Recycler have toured extensively at clubs and festivals throughout Europe, playing alongside Gary Clail, Fun-Da-Mental, Future Loop Foundation, Bloco Electro, Transglobal Underground and Genetic Drugs amongst others. The experience of their live show brings out the primitive qualities of any audience through the sheer infectious beats that drive the most unlikely dancers to immerse themselves in a dancing frenzy
“They blew the roof off!” (Russ Alsop, director of Plug n Play Studios, Reading. Oct 06)
In the studio, Tcherno & Fab remain the creative minds behind Recycler. Onstage, the duo are joined by bass player Eric Mombo, born in the west African country of Gabon but now resident in Paris, and guest percussionists that have included members of The Dhol Foundation, Bloco Electro/Beatroots Bateria, and African percussionists.
In 2006, the band has been preparing their third album Massa Boom Boom as well as the incredible DANCING FEET EP. Never have they sounded so good!
Earl 16, legendary vocalist on Leftfield's Release the Pressure and also member of Dreadzone lends his exceptional vocals to True Lovin’ - here you can enjoy the original mix, Citizen Key's club remix and the very psychedelic cacahouettes mix. "Free Your Mind" sings Earl 16 .. Enjoy the music.
