We will be releasing a new Gang Gang Dance album 'Saint Dymphna' in Europe & Australia on 20th October!

NYC's avant-rock lineage is long and storied... the city has incubated generations of unflinching musical eccentrics. In 2008's Big Apple, no one is flying the chimerical flag higher than Gang Gang Dance.

Channeling multiple eras of electronic music, currents of international mysticism and weaving them into their evolving tapestry of transcendent percussion and ethereal pop inclinations, they've created Saint Dymphna - already being touted as a record of the year! Check some for yourselves on their MySpace.

Read more info on Gang Gang Dance on the Warp site (also check highlights of their '88 Boadrum' drumming marathon with the Boredoms).

DJ Mujava hails from the industrial city of Pretoria, South Africa.

This gem Township Funk is perhaps the most infectious dance record you'll hear this year, echoing the early Warp sound of LFO or the Forgemasters in an uncanny way, almost 20 years on, across continents.
