Popis - SKY IS FALLING:
UPYOU formed in 2005 from the remnants of two very different former projects. Scott was the singer in ill-fated Liverpool garage-pop outfit The Big Wheels while Andy was recording dance music as Bill Payer & Fat Hippy / 3745 Soundsystem . It's the strange combination of these two very different musicians that makes Liverpool based musical hermits UPYOU special. First, there's Scott: embittered indie defector, classically trained multi-instru-mentalist, ex ladies man and general drunken trouble maker. Then, as the production mortar to Scott's melodic bricks, there's Andy: a computer whizz, techno-geek and producer extroardinaire. Unsurprisingly, for chaps with such different backgrounds, the influences are diverse, ranging from detroit techno, minimal electro, italo and disco, to krautrock, psych, shoegaze and 'indie' (whatever that means now). What comes out in the mix is somewhere between all those things. Like a drunk 80's funk band with faulty amps or New Order remixed by Phil Collins. The album is the product of a few years work amid the woosy electrical hum of their Liverpool studios, the record has shaped up to be a lean mean hit-filled opus packed with one electronic pop hit after another.
