CRITIC concert REVIEWS

Music Feeds (Australia)

In the midst of their stint on the Groovin’ The Moo tour the Brooklyn-based duo made a pit stop in Sydney to bring their unique electronic rock to punters who either didn’t get a chance to catch them at GTM or who didn’t get enough over the weekend.

The Music (Australia)

They leaned into the awkwardness with a set full of maximalist electro-pop: gimmicks like pitch-shifted vocals and the use of Dance Dance Revolution and Guitar Hero peripherals as MIDI controllers added some personality to the show.

We All Want Someone To Shout For (USA)

April 4, 2016
%
It was their third New York stop in the past year, with the previous shows coming at Governors Ball as well as Webster Hall.

The Key (USA)

January 28, 2016

The crowd outstretched before the stage was too perfect, full of the sort of eccentrics you might expect to find wading through waist-deep snowdrifts for a psychedelic experience.

The Waster (USA)

January 23, 2016

Brooklyn based duo, Ratatat, made a stop uptown at Hammerstein Ballroom to show off their skills as both multi-instrumentalists and visual performers as they near the end of another tour.

Ratatat started from humble beginnings, two guys – Evan Mast and Mike Stroud – started making music in their Brooklyn apartment just after the turn of the millennium.

How had I been oblivious to; Ratatat; for such a long time?; The ‘Rocktronica' duo formed way back in 2001, releasing their first album ‘Ratatat' in 2004.
