Parisian Duo The Geek x VRV Are the Next Big Thing in Electro-Soul Music, Stream Their New EP Now

Soulful bass music that your hips simply can't resist.

Mostly due to the weed-infused obsession of North America's festival-loving hippie subculture, the genre of electro-soul continues to thrive, with new artists popping up across the world on a regular basis. Led by such artists as Pretty Lights, Gramatik, and the sax-toting funk wizard, GRiZ-it's a sound that packs in enough bass to rattle your face, but still is carried by a mellow cloud (you know the kind) that even you parents could get down with.

Parisian duo The Geek x Vrv, whose debut release for All Good Records, 'Electric City,' is blasting in the player above, possess everything an electro-soul-hungry consumer could ever yearn for. Tracks like the title production, "Electric City" and "Believe In Me" are riddled with oozy chord progressions, slinky snares lines, and the type of squelchy bass work that will cause you to make this face:

True to the electro-soul M.O, much of The Geek x Vrv's productions are also incredibly sample heavy, giving their EP a sort of nostalgic, occasionally delicate vibe that pulls from the past, while still working towards a future progression of a sound they cut their teeth to. Enjoy this exclusive release (which includes remixes from Late Night Radio and Clozee) from this exciting new duo, and be sure to pick up a FREE download of the entire EP when it drops tomorrow on GRiZ's All Good Records.

And, if you want to make a face like the dude above, to this music, in real life, check out the guys on their upcoming US Spring Tour.
