Australian indie electronic trio Cut Copy take many of their cues from generation like Air, Daft Punk, and LCD Soundsystem, but with a distinctly pop sensibility that draws on classic AM radio pop singles from the seventies and '80s, with elements of vintage disco and synth pop that appeal to song-based listeners as advantageously as the clubhouse kidz. Cut Copy started in 2001 as a solo project by songster, producer, and DJ Dan Whitford, world Health Organization released the single 1981 and the EP I Thought of Numbers earlier drawing in other members to fill out his synth and sample-based profound. Bassist and guitarist Tim Hoey and drummer Mitchell Scott debuted on Cut Copy's first uncut album, Bright Like Neon Love, released in the summer of 2004. After several successful singles were spun off the record album (including Saturdays, Future, and Loss Nowhere), Universal's Island Records imprint picked up the trio's external distribution in 2006. Following an imaginative Whitford live DJ unify that was released in 2006 as Fabriclive.29 (including such unexpected delights as Ciccone Youth's noisy deconstructionism "Into the Groovey" and Roxy Music's debonnaire "Angel Falls Eyes" aboard the usual Goldfrapp and Soulwax), the band right returned in early 2007 with the new single Hearts on Fire.
