A tip from Music Week as ones to watch for 2012, Hundreds are Hamburg-based brother and sister Philipp and Eva Milner. Together they sculpt beautifully crafted electronic pop, at times fairytale like, and at times underpinned by a brooding sensibility evoking a darker romantic fantasy world.

The new single drawn from the album, ‘Happy Virus’ (out 21st May on Muri Records) finds Hundreds at their most playful and upbeat and is nevertheless their most political song, where Eva questions the way consumerism seems to own us more than we own the material goods we consume.

Hundreds performing Happy Virus live at Volksbühne, Berlin:

Muri Records are set to re-release Hundreds’ self-titled début album on July 2nd, with 4 exclusive remixes presented in a sumptuous deluxe sleeve. Mostly recorded in their home city of Hamburg, the 12 original tracks of exquisitely nuanced beauty have now by supplemented by 4 additional remixes for the UK release.
