Ones to watch
CRYSTALCASTLES
Named after She-Ra’s pad in He- Man, this boy-girl Toronto duo state their
influences, via their Myspace page, as murder, blank looks on girls and
knives. However true that may be, it’s possibly more helpful to say that
their sound is an amalgam of Suicide, Kid 606 and Klaxons, while their
employment of Atari soundchips in their keyboards also allies them with the
currently voguish chiptunes movement.
