I first heard of Hadouken! on a playlist I downloaded back in March. Never really took a good listen to the song 'Tuning In' until recently. Essentially it's is about the dude at a bar trying to pick up a bird. What makes it so enjoyable is it's relatability. I decided to check out more and realized most of their songs pretty much sum up the daily occurrence of my life.
They also give 'Dupstep' some exposure which is a very underrated genre of music. The fact that they're from Britain gives them that extra appeal because as I've stated before, everything sounds better with a UK accent. If I'm getting blown by a broad and she starts speaking Cockney or says 'Top o' da marnin' to ya' I will jizz immediately and proceed to profess my undying love for her.
Hadouken! with influences in 'Grime', blends a potent mixture of 'Techno', 'Grindie', 'Dance', 'Punk', 'Indie rock' with a sprinkle of 'Hip-Hop' vocals. They are true purveyors of the 'Indie scene' with an affinity for underground. The band consists of James Smith (vocals), Alice Spooner (synthesizer, keyboards), Daniel "Pilau" Rice (guitar, synthesizer, backing vocals), Christopher Purcell (bass guitar, synthesizer, backing vocals) and Nick Rice (drums, samples).
They recently released the single 'Turn The Lights Out', off their forth-coming record 'For The Masses', slated for release the day after my birthday, January 25th.
