Saw these boys recently. In Melbourne at Prince, St Kilda, where it was the full band 'Van She' and then in Auckland at Coherent, where it was just one of 'em looking like he had time travelled from the 70's...but not in a bad way...'Van She Tech'. I gotta say I love these guys, but the set in Auckland was a lil disappointing. Maybe it was because I had built it up in my head and I was hoping it was gonna be the full band (stupidly, because I knew it was advertised as Van She Tech) either way it really was supposed to be an album release tour for there new remix album Ze Vemixes and he played only a handful of the songs on the album! He played one of the best though 'It could be the same'. He also played the Van She Tech remixes of Klaxon's - Gravity's Rainbow and Feist's 1234. Both crankin' tunes.
Anyway! The album 'V' and the remix album of it 'Ze Vemixes' are corkers, wouldn't expect anything less for a band who have supported the likes of Phoenix and Daft Punk. Good to start a party too I reckon. Not to hard, it's up beat and gets you in the mood.
Check out the interview with them on UTR here, which tells ya about the origin of their name and other fun facts.
