Cheers, The Team at Media Block ![]() Chromeo is Dave 1 and P-Thugg who together have brought the spirit of funk back into our hearts. Chromeo is a perfect 36-24-36 in our books, they have a true mastery of Electrofunk and use their talents to share stories from the heart. Chromeo's music embodies the struggles of the young and restless. Their songs are wrapped in tails of club banging, party rocking, and of course their firm grasp of heart thrilling "Thug Passion". Chromeo is on their third studio album entitled Business Casual. Business Casual is full of funky cuts, crisp beats and top notch lyrical craftsmanship. Not only is Chromeo talented musically but they also have a sense of humor. Their work we feel is sincere, but on occasion we can taste a bit of satire. Below we posted a video that Chromeo released titled "When the Night Falls" that really demonstrates what Chromeo has to offer. Be sure to check out their news album "Business Causal" off the Fool's Gold Label. It will not disappoint! ![]() This album is packed with with fresh sounding tracks.
