To the uninitiated, The Presets are Julian Hamilton and Kimberley Moyes, but they are really Aussie wizards of demented electro pop. Their debut album Beams hit Australian shores in late 2005 and the ensuing singles “Are You The One?,” “Down Down Down,” “Girl and The Sea,” and “I Go Hard, I Go Home” have become bona fide dance floor favorites on both radio and TV.

While the guys may have been a little quiet on the studio side of things, as a live concern, they've sharpened their collective tools to become one of the most in-demand live acts in the world with almost 300 shows across 20 countries in the past 18 months alone. From playing to clubs kids in Barcelona, New York and Istanbul, then thousands of S&M leather fans at the Folsom Street Fair in San Francisco, to over 100,000 people at the Brandenburg Gate in Berlin and every possible key festival in between, Julian and Kim have covered almost every corner of the globe with a take-no-prisoners live show.

The Presets break a two-year studio silence with their new single 'My People', revealed to the world on December 17, 2007. A snarling beast of a record, it bristles with fuzzy scratches of guitar snaps, bubbling arpeggiated synths and an instantly memorable, call-and-response, chanted hook. The song sounds like the rattling of an electrified disco zombie chain gain. Backed with remixes from D.I.M, Kris Menace, and Mouse on Mars and a video from director Kris Moyes (who was responsible for the award winning clip for “Are You The One?”), it seems that “My People” will own this summer. Are you in? The second single "This Boy's In Love" and the full-length release, Apocolypso, are out now!
