London-based electro-soul duo AlunaGeorge have garnered internet buzz and critical acclaim for their 2012 debut EP You Know You Like It and singles "Your Drums, Your Love" & "White Noise" with Disclosure, which reached #2 on the UK singles chart. Their debut LP, Body Music, is set for release in the UK on July 1. Their latest single, "Attracting Flies", is based around the most roundabout way to tell somebody that they're talking s**t. I'm partial to the Baauer remix of the song.  They recently visited BBC Radio 1 and performed a cover of "I Wanna Be Like You" from The Jungle Book, my theme song. They are so adorable and talented and I'm surprised there wasn't already a thread for them. This is shaping up to be one of my most anticipated releases of 2013. |

Can't wait. I've loved everything they've put out so far, including their fantastic cover of "Thinkin' 'Bout You". Their latest single, "Attracting Flies", is based around the most roundabout way to tell somebody that they're talking s**t. It took me way too long to work out what it's about.  |

Add me to the ever increasing list of their supporters. It's difficult for me to pinpoint my very favorite of their output, but I'd likely narrow it down to their guest appearance on Disclosure's "White Noise" or this sweet remix courtesy of the Friendly Fires boys.

I couldn't resist to listen to Body Music and I can say it's a solid album (for me). I really liked it.

Body Music is available for streaming in their Souncloud account. <3 it! By the way, it has received 4 stars (out of 5) from the Guardian UK and Digital Spy :)

This album had one of the biggest burn rates for me in recent memory. Lost and Found will always be high on my list though. Great song.

Bumping this thread because of this...Their sophomore album is coming!!!  Also, they tweeted a photo with Avicii on the studio some days ago. However, some fans (?) complained about a possible collaboration between him and the duo on their Facebook page, so AlunaGeorge (still don't know if it was Aluna or George) replied the following: he's a fan of alunageorge, we don't discriminate, music is for everyone. don't be mean. x Perfect answer to be honest. Anyway, there were some more replies from them as well, being one of them: we are also finishing our 2nd album which is entirely made by us (with help from our friend Diplo on one track) Diplo + AlunaGeorge = YES!!! PS. Time to change the thread title, I guess  |

Cool. I went back and gave the album more love and, my initial reaction to it holds: very solid album. Some room to grow though, so I am excited to hear what they come up with on Album 2. I think both Avicii and Diplo will be good for them to shake them out of the kind of urbane cocktail party music thing they are working.

I love this album. Would love to see Disclosure release White Noise after Latch finishes smashing, and then maybe they can launch with Attracting Flies and You Know You Like It over here.
