The Atrocity Exhibition invites you to surrender to the world of Chug. Sounds influenced by post-punk, new wave, disco and acid house, wrapped up in a techno blanket.
So what is Chug?
“Slowed down chuggy, chunky, slo-mo, mutant disco, electronic sounds, with a healthy dose of modern day acid house mentality” – Feed Your Head
“One part new beat, one part disco, one part techno” – Sean Johnston
“If you mean the style that I seem to be getting a bit of attention for recently, the sort of Downtempo but Dance-y synth stuff, it seems like it comes initially from our generation of middle aged ex-ravers. They love the sound and feel of classic House, Techno, New Beat etc, but have mellowed into a slower tempo. It also adds just enough of a sprinkling of Post Punk, Funk, Synth Pop etc to tempt in people from a wider circle too” – Rich Lane
“Some of it is the natural offspring of acid house and Balearic, some of its just slow techno. There is something very nice about a crowd dancing at sub 120 BPM, much of that stuff relies on groove and musicality for its appeal on the dance floor and that is a good thing in our book.” – Eskimo Twins
