The best new band in Kitsuné's catalog since La Roux circa 08, Crystal Fighters are finally releasing their amazing debut single, 'Xtatic Truth'. Think of an electro song created to be listened at the night, a song that was born to be a rave anthem - if they played good songs at raves that is. Strong fuming synths, a hypnotic chorus spiced with a delicious Spanish accent, classic Basque instruments and the girls contributing with delicate vocals - basically a song that everybody needs to start playing at the clubs as soon as possible.
Auspiciously, a track with such strong personality got an equally stunning video as unique as the song. It's not something to describe, just turn off the lights, put the player on full screen, turn the volume up to the max and enjoy. You shouldn't ignore the lyrics on this one either: "Standing on the world alone, learning how to stand alone, and always to be alone, we'll be alone forever."
You know it wouldn't be Kitsuné if the single didn't come with loads of remixes. Even though all the five of them (Xtra loud , Maybb, Magistrates, Renaissance Man and Micromattic) are good reinterpretations of the original, none have as much impact as the original - although I do like the Magistrates one. We also heard that the single will be released in the USA via Steve Aoki's Dim Mak and will feature another remix, this time by L-Vis 1990.
