Approved: Monarchy
By Andy Malt | Published on Wednesday 20 January 2010
A little mystery can go a long way. It certainly seems to be working for Monarchy. A couple of original tracks and impressive remixes for the likes of Marina & The Diamonds, Fyfe Dangerfield, Alan Pownall and Penguin Prison have had tongues wagging since last year. But with the duo refusing to reveal their identities, speculation has been filling the gaps, with producers Paul Epworth and Starsmith, and members of Hot Chip all suggested as being behind this slick pop.
It’s okay, though. You don’t need to spend your time worrying about such things, because tonight is the night they reveal all, when they take to the stage at the Hoxton Bar & Kitchen in London for their debut gig. They are then set to release their debut double-A single, ‘Gold In The Fire/Black, The Colour Of My Heart’, on 1 Feb via Neon Gold, and we hear a new remix for a certain hotly-tipped young lady is on the way too.
