How you say...

I'm in love. Completely, utterly captivated. Exactly my type, too: sweet retro sampling spread over deep bass with a smooth flowing emcee on vocals. And Canadian, too! They have the best national anthem AND fake-looking money with poetry on it. Plus, they make movies about curling.

THUNDERHEIST was what I was crushing out on all day on. It consists of two people, Isis the emcee and Grahm the DJ. They have four songs up on Myspace and damn. Listening to their stuff was like the ecstatic moment when the DJ starts playing the exact song you've been dying to hear all night. You spill your drink, you're so excited. That's what every song was like. Totally perfect party music. The only song you can download right now is "Sueños dolces," in which they sample the Eurhythmics' bread and butter. Listen to all, however, and be jealous of our northern neighbor which is the only place that ThunderHeist is playing shows right now (with the exception of a SXSW showing.) A 12" is in the works but hasn't been released. If this isn't enough for you, the band is Diplo-approved.
