 PLATINUM SELLING 💿 BRIT NOMINATED

This two man DJ / Producer team have been working alongside each other for almost 10 years, since their individual careers in the British and Greek music scene collided together, resulting in a truly unique creative partnership.  

Signed to Sony UK’s Relentless Records, the boys reached No.4 in the UK Official Chart with their platinum selling single 'REACT' alongside Ella Henderson - which also earned them a Brit Awards nomination for 'Song Of The Year'.

Their mashups are soundtracking hundreds of thousands of TikToks & Instagram reels across the world, as well as being supported by some of the best DJs in the dance music scene.

Back in 2003, a demo of the sledgehammer number that is  ‘Break My World’ caught the ear of Island Records’ top dog who, on the strength of those unmistakable strings, signed them to the major league. A balmy headline slot on Pete Tong’s live-from-Miami WMC show in early 2004, simultaneous top-spot hoggings of the Cool Cuts and Buzz Charts and hot Ibizan nights followed. 

However, big isn’t always better, and the boys were soon to discover that teeny-bopper pop-rockers held more sway at the label than their underground sound. An amicable split followed in the summer of 2005, along with a determination to keep things simple next time around. 

There’s no stopping the Globe’s flow though; despite this hiccup the music was coming thick and fast. New vocalist Silja, of Nouvelle Vague fame, as well as collaborations with Television’s Tom Verlaine and old accomplice Boy George, delivered a breath of fresh air and it became clear they needed a suitable outlet for their re-energised musical vision.

Global Underground, with its history of dance music pioneers, was an obvious first choice and quickly snapped the boys up. They got straight down to business, with the “moody brooding” (Music Week) ‘Break My World’ getting the remix treatment from Caged Baby and Gavin Hardkiss in his Hawke guise amongst others in September 2006. Hot on its heels came Dark Globe’s long-awaited album proper ‘Nostalgia For The Future’. Entering the iTunes Electronic Album Chart at No.7, it showed off “the thing that really sets Dark Globe apart from other electronic based acts – their songwriting. Simply put, Nostalgia For The Future is something you need to hear.” (Jive Magazine)
The Dark Globe story began somewhere in the early 90s – in a musical climate where the baggy scene was swinging its collective flares and crusty rock was dying a deserved painful death - when Pete Diggens, drummer in psych punk band Electric Sex Circus, decided enough was enough. Touring with the likes of Blur and giving the Manic Street Preachers an early support slot (“seeing them in their make up lugging equipment about was hilarious,” he laughs) was no longer musically fulfilling. 

Along the way, their filthy breakbeat funk has soundtracked ‘Lara Croft: The Cradle of Life’, they’ve delivered inspired remixies for the likes of Orbital and Two Lone Swordsmen and if you profess to know your dance music history then you’ll know that Dark Globe are responsible for making the first ever breakbeat record, ‘Mondo Scurro’. 

Either way, there’s little doubt that Dark Globe are hard-to-categorise electronic music pioneers and, right now, we’ve never needed them more...
