Xploding Plastix
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Xploding Plastix is a Norwegian two-man band playing Electrofunk/Big beat music with elements of jazz. Their song, "Treat Me Mean, I need the Reputation" became an instant classic when it was released as a 7" on Beatservice Records in 2000. It was later re-released in 2002 on Hospital Records and championed by LTJ Bukem, Coldcut, and Grooverider. The Kronos Quartet has performed their three movement composition, The Order of Things: Music for the Kronos Quartet.
