Grum: one man hype machine…

With this much hyperbole behind him, the only remaining question is ‘why are you not listening to Grum right now?’:
Nylon: ‘The future of dance music”
Mixmag: “An anthemic beauty…beepy backing smattered with emotive waterfalls of French sounding electro wonderment”
IDJ “All damn good – 9/10″
Data Transmission: ” add him to your life right now…”
Future Music: “a fresh sample and synth hero has been elected to save us from Calvin Harris overload”
FHM: “pulls in every gyrating body, every sweaty pulse of a sticky floored, laser loaded club night”
NME “knocking out tracks and remixes that tread a new grey area between the electro-mosh and new school disco eras”
…and finally, Pop Justice: “This is the greatest song of the 21st Century and if anyone tries to tell you otherwise they are an idiot, or they haven’t heard it, or they’re an idiot who hasn’t heard it.”

Guardian New Band of the Day: Lost Valentinos

The UK’s Guardian newspaper has just featured Lost Valentinos as their latest New Band of the Day. Comparing them to, “Stone Roses circa Fools Gold crossed with the Armand Van Helden remix of Tori Amos’s Professional Widow”, they are apparently also the band most likely to release a single called “Inca the Groove”.
This comes on the back of a recent NME feature, as well as Radio 1 support from Zane Lowe, all signalling that the band currently have more British buzz than a stoned backpacker.
