Deerhoof

Busman's Holiday
Busman's Holiday is Lewis and Addison Rogers, brothers of melodic charm and ecstatic showmanship.

You Can't Run From The Rhythm
Perfecto
Don’t be afraid of the rhythm. Lose yourself to the power of Perfecto. Just feel the groove, close your eyes, and shake your hips. It’s a dance revolution. Perfecto: attacking the mic like the funky spawn of Snap, C&C Music Factory, and Technotronic. Not even Ya Kid K could ever get this low. The path to self-discovery lies on the dance floor. Setting it off are your party-starters, Kenny Dennis (The KDz) and Ders. Chromatic funk comes courtesy of producer,...
