Last Wednesday, a few of us here at Sound Singularity had the luxury of seeing Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs live at Le Poisson Rouge in NYC. For those of you unfamiliar with Orlando Higginbottom, he is an all across the board electronic producer from England. He loops his own vocals over a variety of beats, ranging from slow nu-disco to up temp electro. He released his highly praised debut album "Trouble" in June of this year and has been touring globally sharing his dancey goodness with the world.
Although his lasted only a little over an hour, TEED managed to seamlessly mix in originals such as "Garden" and "Promises" with some raw Jungle tracks which sent the crowd into a frenzy. The highlight surely had to be the conclusion of the show which saw arguably his two most popular tracks "Tapes and Money" into "Household Goods". The energy from the crowd during these final two tracks left everyone dying for more, but alas there was no encore on this night. All in all, this is easily one of the three best live performances I've seen all year. If you missed him on his last visit to the USA, don't sleep on him the next time around. He is only getting started and with this diverse of sound he won't be disappearing anytime soon. Check out the videos below for a taste of the magic that is TEED!
