"...Exhilarating instrumental play combined with sexy vocals and just the right amount of attitude... Santa Rubine - No-Title Magazine
"If there's any justice in the crazy world of electro pop, this won't be the last you hear about Rochelle and fingers crossed one day in the not too distant future I'll be able to use one of my favourite phrases - "Yeah, I saw them before they were even signed." Rachel Wilson - LeedsMusicscene.net
"Strewn with filthy bass-driven beats and sweeping synths, 'Party Girls' sounds like Eighties Madonna fronting a darker New Young Pony Club. A combination that sounds like it'd work fantastically well - and it does... making 'Party Girls' an instant floorfiller." John Bishop - ThisIsFakeDIY.com
"Everything in their set from 'Fer De Lance' to 'Party Girls' is packed full of melody and danceable hooks alongside slicing synth goodness that will keep the rockers a' rockin' and the raver's pounding fists in the air" Dom Smith - Rocklouder.co.uk
Since the late 2008 release of their club friendly – Norman Cook endorsed limited edition debut single - ‘Fer De Lance’, which garnered them much critical acclaim, a major Channel 4 TV performance and plays from key tastemakers at Radio 1, XFM and NME tv, Rochelle have been hard at work with leading electro production and remix duo Manhattan Clique on the follow up cut.
The first fruit of the weeks spent in the Manhattan Clique seaside studios is ‘Chin Up’, a tune that’s already had it’s Radio One debut via the Andy George remix on Pete Tong’s ‘In New Music We Trust’ show. And with two other Radio One plays following in swift succession, Rochelle are fast becoming the one to watch on blogspots in the know. A second remix by one half of Partyshank and hot as shit remixer of the moment A1 Bassline is about to hit the street and is sure to cause a ruckus on dancefloors everywhere.
Having worked with a wide array of artists including Mirwais, Moby, Goldfrapp, Fischerspooner, Ida Maria and Katy Perry, plus the small matter of winning a Grammy for work with Kylie, Manhattan Clique craft the ultimate blend of pop perfection and filthy electro stylings that sum up Rochelle’s perfect sound. Delivering beautifully crafted, hook laden pop songs with a dirty electronic edge that make you wish you’d been a teenager in a John Hughes Movie, Rochelle are mapping out the future of British pop music with a twist.
To add visual fuel to the fire, Rochelle persuaded party pals and award-winning director Lucy Tcherniak to make the video for the single, producing a visually and creatively stunning clip that takes Rochelle and ‘Chin Up’ to the next level.
As a three piece, Rochelle deliver a merry-go-round of musical prowess when it comes to their live performances. With drums, guitars, keyboards (and even a Keytar when the setlist and stage permits), percussion and vocals coming from all three members of the band, live shows have been exciting crowds at club nights, venues and festivals across the UK since the beginning of 2008 – and 2009 looks like it’s shaping up to be even more hectic for Rochelle.
