„Always ahead of it’s time, with an unique approch that make the imprint oustanding“ (The Wire)
The ’Indie disco answer to Adele’ and ‘The key band of the New Disco scene”. That’s how The KDMS have been described.
Yes – there is a lot of buzz around Kathy Diamond‘s and Max Skiba‘s band. And if you listen to their debut album you will understand why. A band that connects today’s club music with amazing song writing and the unique voice of great Soul Diva.
Pop, underground, forward thinking and retro at the same time. Music that catches you immediately. That’s probably why they became a favorite of some big pop artists of today. For example: Alexis Taylor from Hot Chip. He teamed up with Justus Köhncke from Kompakt and they did a cover version of the new single “Wonderman”. (On the album). Also the rework that Morgan Geist from Metro Area did for a song is so huge that we have put it on the album.
But… we are talking to much! You have to hear this yourself!
Here comes a nice little old school video by Flo Decker for the cover version of The KDMS‘s “Wonderman”. Covered by Alexis Taylor of Hot Chip and Justus Köhncke from Kompakt.
The original version is around 10 minutes… the video version only 3.. but its a quite nice little camp trip…. check it out! Album is out on 11 May 2012.
Hot Chip’s Alexis Taylor likes The KDMS. And The KDMS likes Alexis. So why not join forces. So today comes the new single of The KDMS including a Alexis Taylor & Justus Köhncke cover version.
And a remix by mighty Tiedye from Sweden.
From the upcoming The KDMS debut album. Coming in May 2012.
Some DJ feedback: Soul Clap: “… very cool.” Tensnake: “Great stuff!” Erol Alkan: “Tiedye mix best of the package” Jaymo: “Ohhhh. Niiiiiiiice!! ” Aeroplane: “I really love the The KDMS” Mylo: “Great thanks! Big fan of Skiba & Kathy Diamond”
