One of the most unusual bands of the modern electronic
scene is again in Moscow with new shows! This would be an important and most
expected event in the city club life. Wizards from Iceland GUS GUS will play a
show in GLAVCLUB in support of their new album «Mexico» along with best hits
from «Arabian Horse» and other albums.
Their homeland is the most mysterious country of the
globe. Their music is a unique alloy of techno and soul. Their fans are even
more famous than themselves - Beck, Blur, David Byrne and Beastie Boys.
It all started back in 1995 in Iceland and keeps
running until present time. Their previous album «Arabian Horse» was a true
sensation in the world of dance electro. Perfect compositions at the junction
of 90’s house and city soul in the spirit of Massive Attack got an immense
amount of music lovers of all kinds to fall in love with them. Those were from
frequenters of fancy discos and aesthetes of exotic to rife music lovers, from
students to editors’ of glamorous magazines.
The band’s new album «Mexico» is a fresh look at the
modern club electro. It’s characterized by refined ambient sounding,
intelligent sound arrangements, attention to slightest nuances and relaxed and
unexceptionable vocal duo.
Gus Gus have managed to find their own unique sound
again at crossroads of classic influences. In their music you can hear echoes
of 80’s synth-pop, garage and 90’s trance. «Crossfade» known by many from
previous shows was released as the first single. It has already led German club charts.
Every Gus
Gus show is almost a ritual action played in roles where charmed audience sways
in trance, every single sound pierces the crown, vocals sound as if from outer
space, the musicians on stage look more like shamans and every harmony pictures
mysterious landscapes of the “land of ice”. It seems that going out from the
venue there will be northern light on the sky.
