简介

来自英国的Dirty Vegas乐队以一首“Days Go By”迅速在乐坛走红,并取得了巨大的成功。尽管他们的作品被归类为“流行舞曲”,但是与Erasure和Pet Shop Boys的风格并不相同,首张同名专辑更像是Madonna的《Ray of Light》和Electronic的首张同名专辑的结合体。Dirty Vegas由Steve Smith、Ben Harris和Paul Harris组成,三个人分别是俱乐部DJ、录音师和歌手兼词曲作者。三个人不同的音乐背景使这支乐队在乐坛中能够独树一帜。他们运用录音设备将传统曲式、电子乐以及各种演奏融合在一起,制造出令人新奇的声响。尽管Smith的嗓音令人着迷,但是与他们的音乐相比,还是显得有些平庸。 by David Jeffries Following in the footsteps of crossover groups like Underworld, the South London trio Dirty Vegas took electronica up the pop charts with their hit single "Days Go By." The group formed in 2001 when DJs Ben Harris and Paul Harris (unrelated) joined forces with their old friend, singer Steve Smith. Smith had just returned from Ibiza, a clubber-friendly island that inspired him to write an early version of "Days Go By." The finished track became a club hit across the world and a Top 30 U.K. hit when it was released in late 2001. A year later it would be featured in an American commercial for the Mitsubishi Eclipse, exposure that helped the track to climb up the U.S. pop charts, top Billboard's dance chart, and eventually win the Grammy for Best Dance Recording. A self-titled album on the Capitol label also arrived in 2002, and remix work for the likes of Justin Timberlake and Madonna followed. The Ultra label released their mix album A Night at the Tables in 2003 and then, in 2004, the studio album One found the group shifting toward a more guitar-based sound. They took a break in 2005 with each member working on separate projects, including Smith's solo album This Town, which appeared in 2008. In 2009 they were back to their original sound with the single "Changes," plus a remix of Ladytron's track "Tomorrow." (更多)
