T H E P R E S E T S - THE NEW ALBUM 'APOCALYPSO'

"For only two people, they throw one hell of a hot party" - Metro Pop

"...Anthems for husky straight dudes who aren't ashamed to dance" - SPIN

"The Presets jump back on the dancefloor and aim for the cosmos with their latest. "Yippyo-yay' and "My People" will light up the night" - XLR8R

"Presets dont just make electronic dance music... They throw a lot of heavy musical content into the stew, seemingly at times to convey that they're capable of being "serious" musicians- not that that kills the joy..." - LA WEEKLY

"(The Presets) throw down fists full of bouncing beats... Shiny as silver ink, tracks such as 'Kicking and Screaming' and 'My People' celebrate diversity and dancing." - Chicago Free Press

"I've seen plenty of concerts in my 36 years on earth - and my 21 years as a music writer - so please forgive my sincere hyperbole here: Last night I may very well have experienced the hottest show of my life." - Just Out

"The Presets revel in the darker, more cosmic realm of dance music while still having fun and involuntarily getting people in the mood to move. There's also punk and new wave elements, but just dont call them "indietronica". - Rolling Stone

"Apocalypse WOW! - a sold-out sea of fist-pumping, the music off of the Presets' most recent album Apocalypso inspiring dance moves from the most complacent of hipsters." - Blackbook

"An electrifying set... The crowd's frivolous dancing and singalong was no shock in this case: absurdly catchy tracks extracted from the duo's latest album Apocalypso intensified as well as delighted." - Big Shot

"...fist pumping, bass throbbing set that coerced the crowd into gleeful, pseudo-violent dancing." - The Eagle.

"Apocalypso could thrust The Presets to mainstream success" - The Edge "Imagine Depeche Mode circa Violator with a twist of Pet Shop Boys' pop purity" - Anthem

"The Presets lead the wave of Aussie dance music" - AM New York

"Apocalypso is not lacking in singles, led by the lush and gorgeous "this Boy's In Love", the shades-of-Devopodium-pounding of "My People" and the rocker "Talk Like That" - Minneapolis Tribune.

"Having created major inroads in their homeland, The Presets are poised to gain similar recognition Stateside and beyond..." AOL Music

"The best sound set-up we've ever experienced!" - DC-ist.

"the Presets had a strong outing, with a minimalist drums-and-synth setup providing a big return on party noir." LA Times.

"Their set wonderfully straddles the line between a traditional rock show and DJ set... the entire venue dashed and jumped around like, well, ravers in a friendly mosh pit." URB "This is the dance record of the Summer" 4/5 THE SUN

"In looking back, The Presets have taken a giant leap forward" 4/5 THE GUARDIAN

"Here's a heaving slice of future out of the heartland" NME

"Equally uplifting, menacing and memorable" LOUD & QUIET

"This is digital punk-pop destined to jab the mainstream in the jugular" 4/5 IDJ

"Lust, doubt and intrigue are this album's calling cards" 4/5 ATTITUDE

"Intoxicating blend of kitsch new-wave pop and darkly-tinged romanticism" 4/5 DJ

"The Presets are beaut" 4/5 MIXMAG

----------------------------------------------------
..

Kimberley Isaac Moyes was but a young man, small of stature but big of heart, down on his luck, doing the odd performance in a downtown gay bar and eating anchovies from tin cans discarded in the alley behind a local Italian restaurant, putting all his dollar bills in a pillow, with the dream to one day have enough money to buy a Moog synthesiser.

Julian Hamilton was the new bus boy in said food joint, robust and ambitious, taking out the trash and sweating like a malaria ravaged wrestler when he one day chanced upon poor Kim out the back, sucking on those oily little fish like hed never tasted such a delicacy.

These encounters out the back of Luigis Linguini And Pasta Allsorts became regular, and led to the occasional lunch date, when Julian would not only smuggle Kim a fresh can of anchovies, but would even share his own chef-cooked meal. The boys found friendship over faggotini, had leisurely lunches scheming up ways for Kim to stay one step ahead of the Child Protection Services who longed to send the delinquent off to an orphanage in Mongolia, they dreamed of the myriad ways Julian could swindle his evil boss Luigi, and held heated debates about their shared passion, music.

It was in these early days that Kim and Julian realized their meeting had been fateful, and that one day they would make good on their shared desire to make moody, crisp electronic future pop.

If youve ever wondered what they might play when youre standing there staring at the fork in the road between heaven and hell, this could be it.

Both members of Australian dance music pair The Presets are expecting their first children next year.
Frontman Julian Hamilton's newsreader partner Janice Petersen and drummer Kim Moyes's girlfriend Mia have both announced their pregnancies this weekend.
Petersen, who is 16 weeks pregnant, told The Daily Telegraph: "I'm up the duff. It's been a dream run so far - I haven't had any morning sickness."
A friend of Moyes and his long-term girlfriend also said: "It was unexpected but they are really happy."
Petersen and Hamilton met while working at a record store in 2000.

Gyus, extremely love your This Boy's in Love, but if you know you have a good one remix on it. From Andrew Shatnyy who lives in SF.
This Boy's in Love (Andrew Shatnyy light remix) - is a perfectly worthy of special attention track.
