Gemini Club sound like they should have emerged from the UK underground as they possess that 'credible' indie raditude, and the UK is the most fertile breeding ground for this indie/electro sound. However, these synth junkies hail from Chicago where they are still relatively under the radar. But, then again, they did only surface in July.

From their Myspace - "Starting with a traditional writing and recording process Gemini Club competes a song and then asks the computer to destroy it, chopping, looping and rearranging at its own discretion. With these cuts the members return to the rubble of their material and rebuild it and so create a sound no traditional rock band could ever achieve. This music is science fiction, guided as much by technology as the will of the bands members."
It's an interesting idea. I don't know how true it is, but it's interesting all the same. And Gemini Club are good... just as good if not better than many of those happy-clappy followers of the dance music revival. I doubt they will remain 'under the radar' for much longer.
