TURBO 087
CHROMEO
DON'T TURN THE LIGHTS ON
 
Montreal’s premier electrotharios are back, rocking the dimmer switch with their latest single “Don’t Turn the Lights On”, from the forthcoming LP Business Casual, out in September.
 
Aeroplane slows down the tempo and glides the waterbed out onto the dancefloor with their disco-heavy mix. Christian Martin freaks the bass to an ovation of frantic handclaps, while Proxy proteges Noise Invaders break out the airy Italo synths and twitchy Russian robot rhythms.
 
This pack gives you the tools you need to smuggle Chromeo’s unmistakable smoothman crooning into any kind of set. Enjoy.

Chromeo - Don't Turn the Lights On (Christian Martin Dub)

Turbo Recordings was founded by Tiga in Montreal back in 1998. In addition to launching his own career, the label has been integral in the success of acts like Chromeo, Gesaffelstein, Duke Dumont and most recently, ANNA & Charlotte de Witte. Core talent includes ZZT (Tiga's collaboration with Zombie Nation), Jori Hulkkonen, BETON, Clouds, Harvard Bass, Pilo, Shaded, Dimitri Veimar and a host of new young producers in genres ranging from pure techno, electro, and house to pop. The list of artists who have released music on the label is a veritable 'who's who' of top-level talent spanning a broad musical range, and this, along with a commitment to beautiful design, has earned the label respect in the industry and a cult following among fans. 

“We started out singing into plastic bags and shipping them to stores as quickly as possible. Later, we discovered that vinyl sounds way better when delivered by kayak. I learned so much the first few years…Now, as I look towards the future, I can envision music for poor people, sonic odors for the hearing impaired, even MP3s for women....Vroom, sucka!” says Tiga, the lyrical lampsman lighting the way down Dance Avenue.
