Clean Bandit Discuss Their Mix of Classical and Dance Music
. "From that first performance that we did at this club night, we all knew it was something we wanted to do," Chatto told Radio.com during release week of their debut album, New Eyes. "It was such an electric atmosphere at the gig and it was really exciting." New Eyes begins with the tongue-in-cheek "Mozart's House," where Love Ssega asks, "So you think electronic music is boring? You think it's stupid? You think it's repetitive? Well it is repetitive." A bold statement, right? "'Mozart's House' was the first time the sound of the band was discovered," Amin-Smith said. "Before that, the tracks were more hip-hop based [with] hip-hop instrumentals. 'Mozart's House' was the first foray into dance music that's now what we do." Meanwhile, Patterson said the statement of how electronic music is repetitive has since been taken as a manifesto, unbeknownst to them. "It was more flippant and more of a joke," he explained. "Then it stuck and then it made sense to have 'Mozart's House' at the beginning of the album. We didn't want to take that off because we were attached to it." more on this story Radio.com is an official news provider for antiMusic.com.
