‘Floating somewhere between indie rock and electronics, these guys from Turin are gaining a lot of exposure.’ PIG MAGAZINE

‘It sounds raw and chaotic like the early work of The Rapture and the Klaxons.’
ROUGH TRADE SHOP

DID release a new single, ‘Stop Giving Up’ on the 2nd May produced with Hatcham Social’s Toby Kidd and mastered at Metropolis Studio with Adam Kerle. Following up on a string of releases, including Rough Trade Shops’ Essential Listening ‘Hello Hello’ transparent 7inch with the first remix ever done by These New Puritans on the B-side and their debut LP Kumar Solarium released in Europe, Japan and the United States. Stop Giving Up is DID’s most experimental Pop moment yet. According to producer Toby Kidd, the song was recorded and produced with inspiration from the Dub bass lines of Lee Scratch Perry and the Pop sensibility of Phil Spector.

Founders, artistic directors and promoters of Loser and SRSLY. two of the most important electronic club nights in Italy and more recently working with Club To Club Festival, DID have always been closely involved with the UK and US music scene with remixes for Flash Fiktion and DJ sets at Offset Festival, White Heat and a residency at Bugged Out in Turin. Musically ahead of their time and responsible for bringing among others Mount Kimbie, Ikonika and These New Puritans to Italy for the first time. DID are now ready to leave their comfort zone and take their sound further afield.
