Atomic HooliganWhilst their last album You Are Here was winning awards and accolades from all quarters, the Atomic Hooligan schedule has never slowed down. They fuse electro, indie, Hip Hop and breaks with ease, truly trying to push the sound further than simply breaks. Their follow up album Sex, Drugs & Blah Blah Blah is a step beyond; with new vocalists, new live instrumentation, and a new outlook on music, the Hooligans have outdone themselves again.
Their sophomore album sees the return of long time Hooligan collaborator, Justine Berry, along with new vocalist to the camp & future superstar, Elmo Jones. The collective have also employed a couple of Hip Hop legends from both sides of the Atlantic. DJ premier collaborator, Afu Ra, and UK Don, Genesis Elijah. The album also features playboy UK Cyber girl of the year Alex Sim-Wise, turning in a trashy electro style chant. The Hooligans have gone deeper with their production on this set.
Pulling in string arranger Jote Osahn, well known for her work with the Gorillaz & Roots Manuva, along with an entire brass section to round their sound out. And if that wasn’t enough, Christian Ward (DC Comics) has whipped up some of his amazing, twisted art to package the whole thing.
Their live show has rocked heads from Glastonbury to The Secret Garden festival amongst other major festivals and clubs all over the UK, Europe and Japan.
With a whole bunch of fresh music about to be unleashed and a DJ and live schedule which is already looking very busy, the Hooligan phenomenon continues to spread.
Always informed by Breaks but never locked down by it. When you listen to their body of work or any of their DJ sets you will find that you can never quite place your finger on any one defining style, but know that you are enjoying yourself just listening.
This big melting pot of talent really does make for one tasty musical stew by anyone's standards, unless you’re planning on sleeping under a rock this year you'll be hearing a whole lot more from these pioneering musical gents!
The future is bright, the future is Atomic!
