Catch 'em while they're hot!
Miami Horror is a disco boppin' lovefest hailing from good 'ol Melbourne, Australia. They have this throwback electronic sound that doesn't overwhelm you with layers upon layers of electronic gushiness. Benjamin Plant, the head producer behind MH, got his influences from Prince, New Order and Michael Jackson among many others. Plant began DJing at small house parties for groups friends and by 2008, he had released a slew of remixes for bands such as Bloc Party, The Presets, Datarock and The Dirty Secrets. Horror released their first EP, Bravado, shortly after in 2009. In 2010, they signed with EMI for full distribution in Australia and France and released their full length album, Illumination. For many of the tracks MH pulled in outside voices to contribute to the album. One such voice was Alan Palomo of Neon Indian and the talented Kimbra.
For all of you out there who have NOT heard of or listened to Kimbra: get on the bandwagon NOW! Kimbra has just signed with Warner Bros. for international distribution and that means she's headed for fame in the US. MH will relocate to the US very shortly for the same reason. Get to know these two wonderful artists, both of which are featured in the song I Look To You ft. Kimbra. Enjoy, enjoy, enjoy.
