Originally published on Apes On Tape. I wrote these 5 previews of bands featured in the Apes On Tape showcase, released in the days leading up to the event.

Treefort Preview: De Lux

“They skillfully weave dance-worthy tunes full of bright, catchy synth, and funky, calculated bass. Paying homage to classic disco, and the music inspired by it, De Lux sounds at times like a modernized hybrid of Chic and the Talking Heads. Not surprisingly, Guerin and Franco also grew up listening to LCD Soundsystem and Hot Chip.”
