Decibels return at the beginning on 2013 with their fantastic new single Ruza.
Following on from last years single ‘The Lesser’ the electronic 5 piece have been busy holed up in their home studio recording new tracks and developing their sound. Ruza is a pounding piece of electronic art-pop which looks set to build on last years success which included airplay by  6 music's Steve Lamacq and Radio 1's Huw Stephen, who made them his tip of the week. This was followed by a release on WARP RECORDS/ BLEEP FILTERED compilation, which featured their track RUBBER DINGHY RAPIDS. The band finished the year having shared the stage with acts such as PEACE, BRETON and AMBASSEDEURS and churning out several remixes on the way, the most notable being BRETONs' single "JOSTLE".
Expect 2013 to be a busy year for Decibels.

"Two songs caught my attention from their set: first, the sheer infectious energy of these masked creatures on stage when banging out the percussion for Ruza – it reminded me a little of parts of the Clock Opera sets and that can only be a good thing; and then there’s the straight up cool as fuck groove that is Regulator-Moderator. Damn."

The five guys in Decibels met at a rave in the woods of Northampton, England, which would naturally lead some to believe that they, too, make music for laser light shows. But no. While "The Lesser"—which they'll release as a single in April—promises dance-ready beats that would surely benefit from a little smoke machine haze, their music is much more accurately categorized as glitchy electro-rock, thanks to the smooth falsetto vocals, buzzy guitars, and a melodic keyboard line. Warp Records just picked another Decibels song for their upcoming Bleep compilation; we're positive this is just the first of many great opportunities for these talented newcomers. EC

For all their pomp, precision and widescreen flamboyance Arcade Fire are - at heart - another rock band.

But what if Arcade Fire went electronic? Imagine if the band's sense of the epic could be transported into dance music, with their human, personal touch left intact. 

Decibels are certainly eager to pick up the challenge. Four musicians, four keyboards and plenty of imagination the band have been picking up momentum for the past year or so.

Comparisons have been made with Four Tet and Mount Kimbie - ones we don't necessarily endorse - but such counterpoints merely emphasise how difficult the band's music is to define.

Set to appear on an upcoming Bleep comp, upcoming single 'The Lesser' is bound to leave its mark.

The track we've been given, though, is something suitably grandiose. The opening seconds of 'Melancholy' are all epic synths and ambitious vocals, hailing somewhere between Win Butler and Jeff Buckley.

Sweeping, soaring songwriting Decibels really do manage to match a sense of the widescreen with something personal. 'Melancholy' grows, pirouettes with the four voices veering in and out of one another.
