BOOM CLAP BACHELORS - A collective of producers, live musicians and DJs out of Copenhagen / Denmark. The collective was founded in 2005 with the release of the selftitled album Boom Clap Bachelors ( Vinyl - Limited 500 copies ). It provided the outlet for future collaboration.
The music spans from electronica, disco non disco to leftfield, new wave, soul and indie influcences. The music often subtle, understated, whispering vocals over crisp to lush instruments - off kilter drum programming - melancholy - uplifting - playfull - dreamy - but we like to rework the style.

Press release:
Yam Who? proudly present their new record label ISM & its debut release from the Parallel Dance Ensemble. Already getting major attention and rightly so the PDE have all the potential to be 2009's underground crossover act. The brainchild of Robin Hannibal from Osuwu & Hannibal fame on Ubiquity Records this is his penultimate creation. Slightly reminiscent of the 80's groups Tom Tom Club, Pop Group and the Bush Tetras but sounding totally futuristic like MIA or those upstarts the New Young Pony Club. "Pizza Turtle Cadillac" features Coco Solid, a New Zealand born MC who has been rocking the airwaves for some time whilst also performing alongside the likes of Sway, Spankrock and SA-RA. The hilarious tongue in cheek joint "Weight Watchers" has all the hall marks of the early Soft Cell material with Cindy Ectasy. Slightly sinister, funny as hell, with a funky lyrical flow and damn sassy too! Rounding up the package are the Yam Who? reworks. Ruff electronic disco funk is the only way to sum up their production for PDE. Retro, futuristic with touches of magic cosmic love dust and already receiving play from James Murphy (LCD), Maurice Fulton, Horse Meat Disco, Faze Action, Lindstrum, Prins Thomas, Metro Area & Daniel Wang.Also have a look at the great video for Turtle Pizza Cadillac :
