the interview show: La Roux
Every once in a while a new act blows up, demanding everyone’s attention. This year it was Ellie and Ben aka La Roux. Sweet new wave-reminiscent beats and Ellie’s androgynous mystique –not to mention her powerful voice– have made her a star in the UK and an indie phenom here.
La Roux will be back in North America in 2010. Until then, you can check her out on itunes and listen to my tea with Ellie from La Roux.
La Roux on the interview show (Ahhhhhhhh… Uhm… Some interviews… uhm… just …uhm… get away …uhm… from you, but I am still at my nerdy best, godammit!)
La Roux “Quicksand” (Mad Decent remix) (This remix was commissioned to help La Roux crack the North American market.)
La Roux “In For The Kill” (Skream’s Let’s Get Ravy Remix) (This one is Ellie’s personal favorite.)
