DARYL HALL & CHROMEO UNITE AT THE 2010 BONNAROO FESTIVAL FOR “LIVE FROM DARYL’S HOUSE”
In a match pairing two pop music favorites of past and present, Daryl Hall & Chromeo have announced their joint performance on Friday June 11th at this year’s Bonnaroo Festival in Manchester, TN. A reprise of the widely successful collaboration first appearing on a 2008 episode of Daryl Hall’s web series “Live From Daryl’s House”, the Bonnaroo performance will also feature Hall and Chromeo performing together as one unit. A nod to Chromeo’s inimitable take on the blue-eyed sentiment of Hall’s music, the triumvirate of Daryl Hall, Dave 1, and P-Thugg of Chromeo will unite once again for a rare set of Hall & Oates and Chromeo classics.

We love you, Chromeo!
To celebrate that love, here's a free mp3 of the criminally underrated Proxy remix of Tenderoni.
Chromeo on 'Yo Gabba Gabba!'
Turbo is extremely proud of Chromeo for all the amazing things they've done... being on Jimmy Kimmel, Conan O'Brien, the Darryl Hall Show, Tout Le Monde En Parle, MTV hosting, and now an appearance on the mega-amazing kids show Yo Gabba Gabba!
It's pretty much a standard Chromeo groove with the sexfunk toned down a bit (I think) in the service of the important message: "Everybody Wash Your Hands."
Awesome work, guys!!

I think last time I wrote for Chromeo I did something stupid like express it in the form of a number from one to ten. I think I put 8. Ok, fair enough, I was on a truth-kick... so let's keep it up. This record is a motherfucking 10. You hear me?? A 10!!!!!! That's right... "Astral Weeks" = 10,
"Screamedelica" =10, "Exile on Main Street" = 10, "Pleasure From The Bass" =10... and now "Bonafied Lovin” (and remixes) = 10.
I can't express how relaxing it is to do press sheets for a 10. It's like I can just sit back and do nothing. Maybe best to remind you of past 7s, 8's and 9's: like, oh... I don't know... You Gonna Want me (an 8)... Umbrella (a 9) or maybe Arcade Fire "Funeral" (a 7)... you get the picture.

“I hate fucking Press Releases. Why? Because they are filled with lies, lies and bullshit and lies.
So here at Turbo I have pioneered a new style... and I like to call it the Truth. With that in mind I would like to tell you something about the record you now hold in your hand... and let's see if you can even HANDLE the motherfuckin truth!!!!!!
Here goes nothing....
I am really busy and I hate writing this shit. I have my OWN shit to do, like a new mixCD or remixes or cataloging my books or starting my new album.....why do I waste this time on all these other fools on my stupid label....what the fuck am I doing in my basement pouring out my guts, all my creative juices for this, for what??? Oh man... ok, Chromeo??? Sure here goes.... Blah blah blah.....funk.... Blah blah... sex... blah blah jew and arab pals... minneapolis, yada yada, crazy hahahahahahha, clever, clever.

If you don't understand Chromeo it's obvious you are a racist. Only racists and deaf people are immune to the Montreal duo’s funky funk. But because everyone at Turbo can both hear... AND believes in racial harmony and equality for all; we dig chromeo....and are proud, nay humbled, to "drop" their first single off the desperately anticipated second album: Fancy Footwork.
What makes this 'footwork' so fancy you ask? Racist scum...step the fuck off and open your heart to the finest distillation of Minneapolis groove since Mazarati. The Chromeo boys are back in the O-Sept to heal the fractured soul of dance music. Teenage lovers, 20 something blogpoders, 30 something burn-out ex-raver "graphic designers" and 40 something afro-americans can all finally party under one roof... and that roof has a name, AND that roof is on fire, and the only ones who can put out that funk-fire also happen to be the guys the roof is named after: CHROMEO
