New beginning's are becoming an august trend. No drunfunk is not now doing star-sign's, however as our country approaches a political (and namely liberal) abyss it is great to know that fresh starts and the blossoming of careers are sprouting out of what could ultimately be looked in hindsight as a regressive time. With more and more ozzie releases hitting dance-floor's and pleasuring indie ears, it is destined that the Australian music scene will soon be receiving the accolades it deserves. Namely Art Vs Science have been obvious stand-outs for many around festival circuits - or even god forbid on the ol' wireless (thankyou tripleJ).
With their Magic Fountain tour in process the Art Vs Science trio have probably endured their fair share of 'pinch yourself' moments - as only a mere two years ago my pre-pubescent self and others looked on at Splendour In the Grass 2008 at a surprisingly good and fine-tuned live performance. Not rushing anything with single's and EP's keeping them active whilst touring their latest releases have been very well accepted by the ozzie electro/indie scene. 'Magic Fountain' a quickly assuming crowd and radio favourite; although not show casing their true range or talent (ie. the not so lyrical masterpiece it is) - does however encompass the true zeal and verve of their hard-hitting fist pumping style. Thankfully the trio have commissioned not only acclaimed internationals such as Kissy Sell Out to retouch the track but also local hero and drunkfunk favourite DCUP who puts a great jiving disco-pop spin on the tune. If you have not yet experienced an Art Vs Science live show - drunkfunk recommends you head to your local dance festival.
peace out!
