The common thread that links everyone in involved in Life and Death is something beyond just their specific talents. Yes, everyone involved is talented, as musicians, dj's, promoters, yadda, yadda, yadda. But what defines them is also something else. Each one in their own way, they are all true party instigators.. the fault of some crossed wires in the back of their brain perhaps, or maybe not enough sunlight as children, who can say.

The common thread that links everyone in involved in Life and Death is something beyond just their specific talents. Yes, everyone involved is talented, as musicians, dj's, promoters, yadda, yadda, yadda. But what defines them is also something else. Each one in their own way, they are all true party instigators.. the fault of some crossed wires in the back of their brain perhaps, or maybe not enough sunlight as children, who can say. But they are definitely. Not. Normal. And that's totally a good thing.
Life and Death concept:
About Life and Death
Life and Death has a peculiar concept. The music in most cases hovers around a dark pop and house approach with a definite psychedelic sensibility.Soulful dance vibes with little pieces of a post-rock attitude. Not immediate dance floor bombs but melodic tunes built around the concept of incorporating influences of its Italian Cosmic Disco and UK/US New Wave and Indie heritage, but without the intention of "reviving" old sounds -- instead creating new ones. It's a concept that maybe seems less peculiar after exploring the eclectic musical backgrounds of its founders Manfredi Romano (aka DJ Tennis) a longtime soundtrack producer and Greg Oreck, one half of New York house duo Thugfucker. And after just two releases it's a sound that's quickly finding its way into the bacchanalian fray of some of the best parties worldwide.
After an impressive debut with Thugfucker's "Disco Gnome", Life and Death returns for round two as it once again gives us its slightly psychedelic after-hours take on dance pop. Here it's with a remix EP that features two stellar remixes of Danish band Who Made Who. The first remix comes from Tale of Us, the young Italian duo who were quickly recognized for their incredible remix of "Disco Gnome" and who are already being recognized as one of the most promising new electronic acts to come out of Italy in the last 5 years. The second remix comes from Michael Meyer, a pillar of dance music and an outstanding producer who truly needs no introduction.
With a dreamy voice and haunting melodies that creep into your brain and stay there until well after the lights have come back up, "Every Minute Alone" seems set to establish the new label as strong voice leading the charge into new territories along the borderline of dance and pop. Show less
