Gypsy & The Cat
Sunday, January 2, 2011 Gypsy & The Cat are two ridiculously talented 21-year-old DJs, Xavier Bacash & Lionel Towers, who just over a year ago began making absurdly catchy originals in their Melbourne garage.
This is a sound we haven't been able to get enough of lately. Think Empire of the Sun and Strange Talk, the smoothness and softer pop rock style of Fleetwood Mac, topped with an infectiousness that will have you floating free from a care in the world.
Slightly legitimizing - after recording their debut album that was released in November 2010, Gilgamesh, Gypsy moved to London to mix the album with David Fridmann (of Mercury Rev fame and producer of MGMT, Flaming Lips, Clap Your Hands Say Yeah to name a few) and Rich Costey (producer of amongst others, Muse, Mew, Franz Ferdinand, Glasvegas).
You'll find yourself playing these on repeat, because they feel like a new song each time.
