Malachai performed a 2 ½ hour show for us at our studio, playing most of their first album. These guys were the nicest people we've had the chance to meet in a long time- totally humble and beyond talented. When we say their performance was a spitting image of their debut The Ugly Side of Love, we really mean it. There were no flaws, and lead singer Gee and DJ Scott flew through their set with breathtaking perfection. We talked about being discovered by Geoff Barrow of Portishead, how they choose the samples they work with, and what they think when they hear the word Minnesota (soup + the Vikings apparently). The guys are making their American debut at SXSW and their first performance in the United States was done with us!
We love ‘em- this was really a treat. Enjoy!
