We made a foolish decision NOT to go and see Pnau last night at the Iceland Airwaves festival in London. We are complete idiots.
Still let's not dwell on the past, let's think about how utterly amazing Pnau are and start making plans to catch them at one of their next London dates.
An Australian duo, comparable perhaps to Justice had the French pair spent their youth on the beach instead of smoking roll-up cigarettes in French cafes, Pnau's take on electro dance is nothing short of TOTALLY FUCKING INCREDIBLE.
Like Justice, their best known track samples a load of kids singing something simple and produced into sounding something amazing. Pnau's 'Baby' may not have crept into the UK club conscious in the same way as Justice's 'DANCE' but give it time. That it has an amazing video will sorta help things too.
But instead of swerving off into frantic electro elsewhere on their album, Pnau jump unashamedly feet first into the pop world with amazing tracks (with vocals by actual adults) such as 'Embrace', 'Dancing On The Water' and 'Come Together'. If you prefer your dance music things a little harder, 'Wild Strawberries' should suit your needs.
We love Pnau, we love them completely and utterly. They will be back in the UK in October for dates at Fabric and Drrrr. You will not regret going.
Dates, details and the best music you will hear all weekend right here.
