The Telly is the brainchild of Vienna-based multi-instrumentalist Martin Gupper. While some may know him from acts like Goldsoundz, Cry Baby or Schweiffels (formerly also: Telly is The Tube, Upperclass Shoplifters and Black Fox Tropikal), Gupper spent the last year crafting songs that marry smart psychedelic pop to twinkling dance grooves. It's obvious. The Telly knows quite a few things about pop music: his songs develop their character by having their crucial ingredients all bent through prisms of psychedelia, deep house, dub & blissful 60s pop.
Getting high in style, coming down united. What you hear on this triple-A-side are top sounds by The Telly between viennese "Grant" and a touch of mancunian rave sparkle. Shout to the top till walls come tumbling down!
