Dark Synth & Post Punk sounds from Amsterdam.

Welcome to Friends Talk Frontend! It’s where we talk to amazing people about their habits, how they got to where they are now, and what their day-to-day life is like.

Torn between opposites, momentum lost syphons calmness from chaos while melody and noise collide to create drone based ambient music.

King Champion Sounds are fantastic. They have real presence and authority, they have an astonishing sound (a mix of shuddering, rumbling Fall bass lines, clattering guitar patterns and this soothing, affirming soul revue / Dexys feel from the horns), and they have the songs. They sound massive live.
(INCENDIARY October 2013)

What if The Fall had garnished their rockabilly grooves with swing-era horns? What if Can played Ghanaian highlife? What if Morroicone had scored spaghetti westerns in a Moroccan souk? King Champion Sounds recombine canonical influences in new contexts.
(SUNDAY TIMES / Stewart Lee December 2013)
