BIRDY NAM NAM !!!



The crew of Birdy Nam Nam consists of four crazy French guys. Their semi-new album (2009) is known as "Manual for Successful Rioting". The beats from this album make the MOST beautiful harmonies.

The sound is robotic and makes you feel as if you are floating with the satellites in space. Especially in tracks like "Red Dawn Rising", "Homosexuality", and "Space Cadet Apology" (notice in the later a chant which sounds exactly like the Pokemon Charmander saying 'char!'). It's awesome.

Other tracks possess you with a trance-like grip in which you feel this hyper energy. The sound and composition is so clean, yet their is a power that intices you to dance like a wild monkey. For this effect, check out "War Paint", "Shut up" and "Manual for Successful Rioting" (the single).

Birdy Nam Nam are a must-see at any festival. The above pictures were taken at the STRP festival in Eindhoven. The crew rocked the set, they brought so much energy to the crowd-and the lighting was amazing and it was synced perfectly with the sound. It was like watching a live and way cooler version of your computer's visualier. Fun Tip: you should enjoy this album while watching it with your iTunes visualizer :)
