Chromeo is an electro-funk duo made up of David 鈥淒ave 1鈥 Macklovitch, and Patrick 鈥淧-Thugg鈥 Gemayel. The pair met in the mid-1990s at college in Montreal, bonding over a love of hip-hop and vintage funk. After hearing records like Daft Punk鈥檚 Discovery, they formed Chromeo in 2002, releasing their debut She鈥檚 In Control in 2004. Their music combines funk grooves and pop hooks with analogue synth melodies, and they have just released their new album Adult Contemporary: a meditation on modern, mature relationships. Joining them are two incredible artists who have been dominating in the world of synth-pop for over a decade.

Their playlist, Forgotten Gems from the Indie Class of 2008, features tracks by Kelis, Klaxons, Late of the Pier plus more.
