" Robotic electro funk of a damn fine-sized proportion, something to slap any side of your body with-especially the thigh! " (SUBBA - CULTCHA)
"We could define it as an electro songwriting, for the pathos of a voice that reminds us a GM organism created out of the vocal ropes of Chris Martin and Chris Cornell. The writing, instead, reminds us closely a James Murphy (aka LCD Soundsystem) in it's best shapes. (...) But for me they are simply this year's most authentic rock experience."

Hal Flavin is a composite being of three musicians, dealing out new electro-pop and computer-soul between Luxembourg, London, and other places of welcome.
A hand-made, eponymous EP released in July 2008 and the gigs that came with it got them noticed in Europe. They supported the likes of Metronomy, IAMX, The Faint and Fujiya & Miyagi and played at festivals like Eurosonic Noorderslag, ROCK A FIELD (w/ Kings of Leon, Franz Ferdinand, The Ting Tings…) and ITALIA WAVE LOVE (w/ Placebo, Kraftwerk, Aphex Twin…).
After a small UK tour the band is back in the studio for the writing and recording of an album due for 2010.
