 VHS OR BETA is proud to announce the release of their new digital single bundle, "Feel It When You Know". It's the first release on their own new label, Chromosome Records. The EP is available for an exclusive time on Beatport.com and will be available on iTunes on November 10th. In anticipation of the release, VHS OR BETA is making the single's LA Riots Remix" available for free today in conjunction with RCRD LBL. You can grab it here.
For the next few months the band will be digitally releasing a series of singles to keep you guessing what they'll do next. The singles will be accompanied by world-class remixes. On "Feel It When You Know", LA RIOTS, made time to remix the track during their hectic international touring schedule. Lucky Date, an up and coming producer from Chicago was hand-picked by VHS' Craig Pfunder. And Mark Verbos, best known for his production work for Tommie Sunshine, delivers a ravey remix.
Why this? Why now? Craig Pfunder, Mark Palgy and Mark Guidry, a.k.a VHS OR BETA, have never been content to be "comfortable." Dance music is still something that the guys believe hasn't yet been given a proper audience in the US. The live band always causes a dancing frenzy, as do the VHS OR BETA Dee Jays. So why not make the music purely THAT: dance music.
From their first noisy basement recordings (literally released on VHS tapes to sell to their friends) to the instrumental disco EP, Le Funk, to the breakout indie buzz record, Night on Fire to the nonstop rock anthems on Bring on the Comets, it seems that VHS OR BETA had covered most sonic bases...until now.
VHS OR BETA has always been a proponent of dance music; the hybrid band that rides the line between rock and dance. Not this time. The new single, "Feel it When You Know" doesn't hide behind a wall of guitars because there ARE no guitars. For the very first time in over a decade, VHS OR BETA are now producers of their own music and this is by far their boldest step into the world of electro and house.
But it doesn't stop there. If you read past interviews, you see a pattern: VHS OR BETA is about the art of writing songs. However this time around, it appears as though they've tossed that out the window...or have they? On "Feel it When You Know" the only lyrics are "you feel it when you know it's love" repeated until the track seems to crash and burn only to rebuild again into a massive repetition of the title until you, YES YOU are singing right along during your very first listen!
