Bio: Telephoned was born one night in Brooklyn when DJ/producer Sammy Bananas (Fool's Gold) and singer/party starter Maggie Horn (Good Peoples) decided to record their own ... (more) version of T-Pain's "Can't Believe It." Their track was neither remix nor cover - instead, the duo fashioned a postmodern take on both, warping the original beat into a hypnotic club track and bringing out the dreamy qualities only hinted at in Pain's auto-tuned melodies. Sammy and Maggie's fresh "Can't Believe It" quickly became a DJ favorite - even making it into mix rotation on LA hip-hop station Power 106! - so they decided to keep recording as a team, cleverly named after the kids game of Telephone: no faithful copies, just a party line of unexpected twists. "Pop Champagne" is their latest concoction, turning Ron Browz' rap hit into a spacey dancefloor gem ("Bottle service electro meets Triplets Of Belleville!" says Ms Horn) that's instantly addictive and massively charming. More reworks are on their way, turning pop into new-school standards and continuing to put a fresh spin on party music. Telephoned are off the hook! (less)
