AlunaGeorge个人资料:
AlunaGeorge is George Reid and Aluna Francis. They met on the internet - while both working on separate projects - and united musically when George remixed Sweetheart, a song featuring Alunas vocals. The track went on to gain love from the likes of Rob Da Bank at Radio 1.
Georges busy electronic production and Alunas signature sweet vocals met physically at Georges home studio in Hampton Court, after endless ideas being sent back and forth via email. The first song to be born was Make No Mistake, which was originally intended for use by a different band - but Aluna and George were so keen on it, they decided to keep it for themselves. AlunaGeorge had arrived.
Together - with influences ranging from Flying Lotus, Hudson Mohawke and Chris Clark to the more late 90s US RnB pastures of Aaliyah, Destinys Child and Mariah Carey (the first CD Aluna ever owned) - theyd honed the precise art of creating a new brand of pop music. They began to combine glitchy, wonky sounds, blinding hooks and throbbing basslines into a traditional pop structure. Take a listen to pick apart the elements; the unusual megamix of house-style build-ups, vocals that could easily have been the beating heart of of UK garages poppiest moments and intonations from the finest RnB singers of the 90s. With these facets and the addition of some great big choruses, AlunaGeorges songs sound fresh and ever-demanding of the repeat button.
We Are Chosen mixes two-step and dulcet RnB vibes, bringing memories crashing back to T2, Tina Moore and Shanks & Bigfoot, while the infectious hooks and dancefloor-pop basslines on Make No Mistake arent easy to ignore; Bad Idea combines sleek hip-hop with rhythmic pizzazz and an in-your-face refrain, and theres plenty more twisted pop to come.
