Both accomplished producers in their own right, Benjamin Damage and Doc Daneeka teamed up about a year ago to make Creeper for Modeselektor’s Berlin label 50 Weapons. The duo made such a good impression that they were asked to produce a whole album, which is released today. If you’re familiar with Don Daneeka’s sound (best heard on Hold On), then expect to hear something very different on They!Live. The best way to describe it is a chilled-out, melancholic hybrid of House and Techno, but there’s a great mix of styles from the dancefloor-worthy Charlottenburg to the Burial-esque Halo, which you can just relax to at home. Our pick of the bunch is Halo, featuring the gentle vocals of Abigail Wyles, and is accompanied by a rather nice video, shot in just one day around Berlin. We certainly hope this collaboration isn’t a one off.
