Interview - Milky Chance
A few questions with the currently-killing-it German duo.. There's a very good chance you've heard Germany-based two-piece Milky Chance's single Stolen Dance - the clip (down the bottom) has clocked up a tidy 41million views on YouTube and rising, over a year later. Last week saw the Australian release of their debut album, Sadnecessary (get it via iTunes HERE), and Gab Strum sent a few questions off to lead singer Clemens Rehbein. How did you guys meet? Have you played in other bands together before Milky Chance?   We met during college in Kassel and visited both the same music course. We quickly recognised we got along great and started playing in a band together together with other friends. After school some of them left our hometown and moved to other cities but I kept on writing songs. So one day Philipp and I decided to record those songs, that’s when Milky Chance started. The combination of different sounds and styles is something that really sets you apart from other bands. Ho

Milky Chance - Stolen Dance (Jealous Much? Remix)
If you thought Milky Chance's chill acoustic house hit needed more trap.... If you listen to our national youth broadcaster there's a very good chance you've heard German folktronica duo Milky Chance's single Stolen Dance (the video clip is down the very bottom for the seven of you that haven't). We imagine there's a lot of remixes on the way as the track is too perfect for it, and Aussie trap-enthusiast Jealous Much? has taken the track and turned it into quite possibly the most banging version of the song we think you'll find. Fuxing with the vocals into chipmunk styles and adding some rave-horns should about do the trick on this free download: We imagine there's gonna be a lot of you picturing this bad boy going down a treat in the clurb any time after 1am, and for more you can follow Jealous Much? on FACEBOOK and/or TWITTER, or do the same for Milky Chance HERE.
