Dum Dums - Running Away

Dum Dums were a British guitar pop band who had limited success at the turn of the millenium releasing several singles from their album, It Goes Without Saying, before splitting in August 2001. This track was a B-Side to their third single, You Do Something To Me, released in September 2000 and peaking at #27 in the UK. Despite spending early 2001 working on their second album, the band announced their split in the Summer of 2001, claiming they had taken the band as far as they could, wih singer Josh Doyle going on to launch a solo career.

The Mitchell Brothers - Michael Jackson

The first track on the new Digital Technique comes from the Mitchell Brothers, no not Grant & Phil from Eastenders, but the British rap duo of Owura Nyanin and Kofi Hanson. The song Michael Jackson was the second single from their second album, 2007's Dressed For The Occasion and was produced by Calvin Harris and released as with their other material on Mike Skinners' The Beats label. Despite this the song debuted at a dissapointing #65 in the UK Singles Chart, with the subsequent album failing to chart.
