The Clik Click - my dunks on Friends vs Records



The Clik Clik
My Dunks
A) My Dunks
B) I Can't Take You Anywhere
Friends Vs. Records
Quantity Pressed: 500 Pink
Release Date: 10th Dec 2007

The Clik Clik are referring to shoes of course, the ridiculous pursuit of keeping that perfect pair in perfect shape. Stefan Abingdon and Maya Yianni make up this electronic dance-rock duo, barely out of their formative teenage years.

They are entirely too young to making this kind of high energy soul. When did they find time to hone their electro-dance sound after their studies? Of course after further research both of them come from highly musical families. Maya's dad was a member of the punk band, The Doll on Beggars Banquet, and Stefan's parents are professional touring musicians. They have been exposed to composing since birth, influenced by everything from Billie Holiday to Elvis Costello and so far it's taken them in this electronic dance-rock direction.

I can't help but be jealous, I mean, I didn't always want to write, I thought I had talent with my friends in my garage. But I'm glad I never heard the Clik Clik because I would have realized how impossible this dream is. They are insanely talented and are using all the sounds that are categorizing this genre from the likes of !!!, lcd soundsystem, the rapture and CSS, among others. It's catching.

They trade off vocal yelling/rhymes keeping the beats frantic and the electronics 8 bit.

If you're looking to get your dance on, or are a fan of any of those familiar references, you might want to yourself a favor and check out their myspace and track down this vinyl on friends vs. records at your shop.
