Justice: Background

Justice is a French electronic music duo consisting of Gaspard Augé  and Xavier de Rosnay. Formed in 2003 they have been entising listeners with their heavy metal inspired electronic style ever since they burst onto the scene with their remix of Simian's track "Never Be Alone". Their debut album † was released in June 2007 to critical acclaim, vaulting them into the spotlight with a nomination for a grammy among a host of other awards. Their style combines cut-up bass lines with a compressed and distorted synth sound and often includes bass slapping. Their unique sound is said to have bridged the gap between the stadium-ready house of Daft Punk and the more mindless blasting of beats favoured by a rave generation. 


Their heavy-metal influence has helped to brand them more as rock stars than DJ's and their iconic illuminated cross which often accompany's them on stage acts as a recognisable symbol for fans to latch onto.
