Digitalism DJ set (DE)
Friday, 5 December 2025
One of the leading lights of the wave of anarchic electro acts that dominated the club scene at the end of the Noughties—alongside the likes of Boys Noize, MSTRKRFT and The Bloody Beetroots—German duo Digitalism have been packing out dancefloors around the world for more than twenty years. Across four studio albums, from 2007’s ‘Idealism’ to 2019’s ‘JPEG’, as well as countless explosive live shows, Jens Moelle and İsmail Tüfekçi have turned blending electro-house, dance punk and electronic rock into an art form. Don’t miss their DJ set when they play Clockenflap for the very first time.
因為喺德國漢堡一間專賣house同techno嘅碟鋪返工而認識，由 Jens “Jence” Moelle 及 İsmail “Isi” Tüfekçi 組成嘅 Digitalism 起初係玩DJ雙打，打得多就想有自己作品，於是平租一座二戰時期遺留嘅地堡做錄音室，並於2007年推出首張大碟《Idealism》。
數碼通兩子將自身鍾愛嘅風格曲種大雜燴，除咗當時大行其道嘅 French House，亦超前部署滲入 glitch、dance punk、electroclash 等元素，特別係此碟收錄嘅一首〈Pogo〉，全首聽落尤如Crystal Castles與Cut Copy混合體，高能量至極又唔會油脂過剩，係千禧頭十年嘅 indietronica 代表作。
2011年 Digitalism 從打碟現場玩法取經，推出更受歡迎嘅續作《I Love You, Dude》，收錄有The Strokes嘅Julian Casablancas客串寫曲嘅〈Forrest Gump〉，而加重電壓嘅〈Miami Showdown〉、〈Circles〉或〈Blitz〉亦非常襟聽。DJ出身嘅二人歷年來交出不少出色混音作品，合作對象包括 Télépopmusik、Bloc Party、The Rapture 等indie club歌單常客，當然亦有影響 Digitalism 甚深嘅大神 Daft Punk —— 今年佢哋嘅最新單曲〈your love〉就頗有《Discovery》時期 DP 法式未來派對電子感，絕對適合做今年嘅Summer Anthem。
繼2019年後，Digitalism 將於再次來港，首登 Clockenflap 舞台打返套DJ set，中意電嘢跳嘢嘅樂迷，現場一定爽死。
