  • DAT Politics are a French electronic music group. Their music is sometimes classified as musique concrète. DAT Politics began in 1999 in Lille, France, as a quartet featuring Claude Pailliot, Gaëtan Collet, Vincent Thierion and Emeric Aelters. Previously, three members had played together in the band Tone Rec, which released several albums of abstract electronic music on the Belgian label Sub Rosa. DAT Politics quickly found their own musical identity and released four albums on such prestigious labels as Tigerbeat6, Chicks on Speed, A-musik, and SKI-PP, which they founded themselves. They have also collaborated with musicians including Matmos, Lesser, Felix Kubin, Kid 606, Blevin Blectum, and Nathan Michel. The band are renowned for live shows and have toured extensively worldwide. The band's label SKI-PP has released albums by artists such as Felix Kubin, Goodiepal, Nathan Michel, and Aelters. The band create their own art, as seen on their album covers, website, and music videos. Though somewhat genre-bending, their style can be described as a mixture between minimalism and deconstructed techno, with much more of a light-hearted tone than that of similar glitch artists such as Matmos. Many songs include obscure sped-up or slowed-down vocal samples (often to the point of chipmunk-sounding absurdity) and juxtaposed orchestra hits and synthesizers amidst pop undertones.
