DAT Politics

DAT politics’ members came together as a production team in the early 2000 when they created their Art platform Skipp (label and graphic design project) – DAT Politics is an outlet for their electropop music. Well known as a very productiv, hyperactiv band, DAT Politics released their 2 first albums Villiger and Tracto Flirt almost at the same time in early 2000 on their own label Skipp and on the prestigious German label A-musik. Quickly they received demands for gigs and other releases from US (Tigerbeat6), Japan (Digital Narcis), UK (FAT CAT) as well as invitations to many compilations. They received several time an honorific mention at Ars Electronica one of the most important prize in European Electronic Music for Villiger and their remix of NWA on Tigerbeat6. In 2001, they’ve been in touch with Chicks On Speed interested by their music for quite a while. The Electro Trash German label released their Plugs Plus album in 2002 which brought a new Electronica breath in France and worldwide. The press and the fans were excited and DAT politics continued to tour the world as well as recording new music. In 2004, they released their 2nd album for Go Pets Go followed by some extensive tour on nearly every continents during 2 years. In 2006, DAT politics released successively Wow Twist on Chicks On Speed and Are Oui Phony, an EP on Tigerbeat6. These records invited definitely the audience to dance. Tracks like Turn My Brain Off and My Toshiba is alive or Step back became hymns for a young excited audience. They played many festivals and have been bouncing the clubs around the world. Pop Bands like Jagga Jazzist, The Blow, Architecture in Helsinki asked them some remixes. In 2007 they appeared on The Itunes Essentials compilation between Daft Punk, Justice and Busy P.
