This mysterious Scandinavian duo drew much attention for their last release, "I am not machine" in 2005. For the last two years, under various aliases, they have been producing numerous Norwegian pop acts, and have had several chart hits in mainland Europe , including the top 10 smash “Fuck Deg” by Sichelle , and Aqua's shocking 2006 comeback hit “Barbie blows”. Unfortunately the pressures of chart stardom (and the inevitable frenzy of LSD ) took their toll, and the pair were forced into rehab at the end of 2006, where they took time to re-assess their artistic output…and upon their emergence early this year they went straight into the studio. “Hack The Tab…is back” is the result, and we think you'll agree that it makes a refreshing change from the anodyne minimal and ‘electro-house' that are so ubiquitous in 2007.
Kracktronik say ‘fuck trends'…
“Hack the Tab…is back” is an unapologetically anthemic slice of acid electro, shiny and sparkly on the surface…but remove that classic smiley face and it reveals a dark and deviant underbelly. And so it seemed only fitting to invite two of our favourite producers to ‘hack' the track in their own inimitable ways. Bass Junkie strips away the layers to create a lean and mean electro machine, complete with Paul Hardcastle style e-e-e-dits and whistful melodies. Meanwhile Wee DJs completely destroys all melody and arrangement from the original and reforms it into a gnarly & distorted acid mutant! Rumour has it that next up from this enigmatic couple is an acid cover of a classic 80's pop track…let's hope it doesn't take another 2 years!!!
