Delphic Take on Japan

Delphic is probably one of the bands I'm most excited to catch at Summer Sonic.

Their debut album Acolyte has been a constant companion in the car this summer. If you haven't given these electronic wizards a spin, CATCH UP HERE. Their videos

Alas, they've already beat me to Japan, it seems...

Two Door Cinema Club

The neatest part of going to a music festival, especially when there are already plenty of bands you know, is the discovery of new things you might like.

Later this summer we'll be hitting one of the Summer Sonic days in Japan. Filled to the brim with up-and-coming musicians we've had on our radar (Orbital, Hurts, Delphic, Passion Pit, Calvin Harris and 3Oh!3 among others), the festival is already having a spillover effect on our iPods.

Take Two Door Cinema Club, for instance. Were they not playing on the same stage as some of the above, they may not have gotten our attention just yet. Effusive and likeable, this Northern Irish group is proving to be a nice frothy summer addition to the ol' iPod.

Fittingly, they also have a cheeky little lushy tour of Japan they've posted up...

Delphic

There must be something in the water over in Manchester, England. It's like an electronic assembly line over there, putting together beats ready to get you moving and on your feet!

Delphic, a thumping British quartet, has been on my radar for a little while now, but I really hadn't really given them much of a listen until now.

My bad.

Some people are already lauding their debut album as a best of the year contender. Since I'm old school, and tend to pay for my music, I won't get a chance to hear the whole thing until later this summer. The bits I have heard so far, though, are increasingly amazing.

These beats are already up for pre-order here in the States, so, just maybe this summer we'll be getting our groove on with a little help from the Delphic guys. It's nice to see this won't just be a rest-of-the-world kind of thing!

While we wait for Acolyte to drop in June, here's a sampling of what you can expect.

Really, it's brilliant stuff.

This would be a perfect summer show here in the mountain time zone. I'm just saying...
