Broadly, this electronic duo make dance music in many of its multifarious forms: from the more experimental electronica of an EP that sampled historic Welsh speeches to their woofer-shuddering remixes of the likes of Band Pres Llareggub and Delyth McLean.

They’re also accomplished DJ’s whose sets have thrilled fields and tents at Festival No 6, X Music Festival and Kaya.

Wales has never really had an equivalent to the Chemical Brothers… two sonic explorers dedicated to the geography of the groove. Up until now, that is.
