Simian Mobile Disco are an English production and remix team. Formed from
the ashes of Simian in 2005 they are comprised of members James Ford and
James Anthony Shaw.
History They have released a number of low profile singles, such as "The
Count" on Kitsuné Music, but have arguably gained more fame for their
remixes of artists such as Muse, Klaxons, The Go! Team, Air and others. In
2006, Kitsuné released SMD's underground hit "Hustler", which features a
vocal performance from New York singer Char Johnson.
Musically, Simian Mobile Disco are known for heavily stylized tracks -
often with minimal instrumentation - that associate themselves with a
particular hook (vocal or instrumental - see mix of "Whoo! Alright,
Yeah...Uh Huh" by The Rapture), which is repeated throughout the track.
There is often a breakdown (occasionally more - see mix of "Magick" by
Klaxons) comprising noise, drums and sometimes synths and vocals.
