Classic Album Review: Deep Dish | Junk Science

The electronica duo's fare is geared as much for the headphones as the feet.

Spin Magazine picked electronica duo Deep Dish as “one to watch out for.” It’s easy to see why.

This may be dance music, but it’s geared as much for the headphones as the feet: The low-key, soulful grooves graft beatbox disco rhythms with chilly, swirling oceans of synths while the sweeping, chirping effects fly across the speakers like birds on the wing. Like the title hints, it’s all very experimental, innovative and brainiac — but not too nerdy to cut a sharp groove with The Future Of The Future, a collaboration with Everything But The Girl. Dig Deep.
