Amanda Roszkowski writesReact Presents & CHIRP Radio Welcome Classixx to Double Door This Friday!

Do you have plans this Friday yet? If not, you won’t want to miss out on seeing one of the worlds most universally respected DJ duos perform. Childhood friends hailing from L.A. Tyler Blake and Michael David, make up the duo of Classixx – a name that came from their affinity for compilations of different music. The duo began touring in 2009 with their first single, “I’ll Get You,” featuring Lady Gaga’s songwriter Jeppe. Following this single, they made acclaimed remixes for the likes of Phoenix, Holy Ghost, Mayer Hawthorne, Groove Armada, Yacht, Major Lazer, Gossip and more.

After successfully collaborating with several artists, Classixx began working intently on their 12-song debut album, Hanging Gardens that came out last May. The album is warm, breezy and carefree, like memories of a wistful summertime romance. The album has been compared to early Daft Punk albums and its anthem, “All You’re Waiting For,” features vocals from ex-LCD Soundsystem member Nancy Whang.

Opening for Classixx is the duo Washington D.C. duo pop band, Gems. They were named The Best Band You’ve Never Heard by Buzzfeed earlier this year and is comprised of Clifford John Usher and Lindsay Pitts. Tickets are $15 and the doors open at 8PM at the Double Door, show starts at 8:30PM. Get them here!
