They released the ''Partner'' EP in February 2012 and the ''Window'' EP in July 2012. Their first album, ''Victory'', was released on Fake Four Inc. on October 16, 2012. Don Yates of KEXP-FM described the album as "an impressive set of maximalist, R&B-tinged electro-pop with a huge, lush sound featuring walls of glittering synths, hip hop-influenced rhythms, chopped samples, wispy vocals and sugary pop melodies." Alyce Currier of Earmilk said, "With more emotional staying power than a lot of music caught up in today's rapid release cycle, I think this one is a keeper."

More recently, the duo has been active in hip-hop, contributing production ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
