“The Broken Hearts (Nisha and Amber) lead a new wave of female DJ groups who look and sound great” - Elle
Well-known for their distinctive brand of spectacular DJing, in 2008 the Broken Hearts were invited to present their own weekly music and culture show on QRadio, in a primetime slot from 9–10 on Sunday nights. Described by Lauren Laverne as “a 60-minute shimmy across a different musical landscape every week," ‘Broken Hearts Mystery Hour’ takes listeners on a fantastical journey to a land of eclectic tunes and eccentric curiosities. Guests so far have included legendary shoe designer Terry de Havilland, London club queen Jodie Harsh and 80s pop icon Jason Donovan.
Due to their varied aesthetic influences and unique style, the Broken Hearts were asked to collaborate with London boutique Beyond the Valley to design a capsule collection as part of their Autumn/Winter 09-10 range. The limited edition collection draws on costumes from the golden age of the circus sideshow, with a sinister edge inspired by Tod Browning’s 1932 film Freaks.
The Broken Hearts’ have collaborated with the musician Whitey on an album of original recordings. Their debut single "Black Cat"/ "Blanco," described by Nylon magazine as “sinuously sinister,” was released on Mute Irregulars imprint and has been used by PPQ to close their catwalk shows. The hotly anticipated follow up, “Count Those Freaks!” will be out soon.
As live DJs they have played some of the most exclusive venues in London (Sketch, The Grill Room, The Hospital Club, Tate Modern, and ICA), as well as shows throughout New York, Paris, Moscow and Milan; their sets have been described by The Independent as "a Hollywood musical on hallucinogenics."
Earlier this year, the Broken Hearts made a short documentary film: Welcome to the Big Top, an exploration into British circus history, which premiered at the East End Film Festival in April.
They have been featured throughout the style and fashion press, including British Vogue, i-D, and Nylon, including appearances at number 16 in the Observer ‘Cool List’ and at number 6 in Elle's 'Hot 20' for 2009.
