Listen To This: Better Late Than Never
Filed under: Listen To This
Why has it taken us this long to fall in love with the brilliance that is Chromeo????
If you like Justice or Daft Punk, then these boys will make you cream!
Their music may sound like it's from France, but they actually hail from Montreal and New York. Their sound is a sweet amalgam of influences and eras. And, unlike a lot of electro artists, they're not afraid of using live instruments.
Check out just a taste of what they're all about below. Then you must CLICK HERE to discover the sweetness that is Chromeo!

CHROMEO = BEST BAND EVER. Kinda didn't want you to post it on here because it was nice keeping such an amazing music secret!
wow Perez, you're just hearing about them now? they're the shit, COME ON!
it took you that long! im already sick of their songs! except needy girl will always have a place in my heart haha
These guys have been around for a while….
I saw there video for Bonafied Lovin on MTV2 a few weeks ago and fell in love. But doesn't the tall *NOT GHETTO* guy look like the guy who got into a fight while hanging with Derek and Avril??? or is it just me?
I love that your taste in music has improved since I began reading this blog. Try Simian Mobile Disco, Digitalism, Girl Talk and MSTRKRFT if you like this.
Chromeo?! Todd Edwards not only ACTUALLY WORKED with Daft Punk, but has been the shizz in the UK for years! His work on Odyssey blows this out of the water! Get some real tatse, not the same recycled crap over & over!!
Todd "The God" Edwards=Legend
Chromeo=not so much
yeah they've been around for sometime perez.
ya era tiempo, no?
i love these guys, pretty much dance to their shit everyday.
Perez you are so fucking out of touch..Chromeo has been around for about five years and this track came out last summer..instead of stalking britney maybe you should brush up on pretty much anything that is relevant.
I'm sooo glad that you posted this! I've been hearing this song on indie 103.1 and I love it!! I also love Justice and Daft Punk, what fun music!!
goddd so LATE!
they've been hotttt for a while now.
The beginning sounds like old school Michael Jackson.
Bonafied Lovin' is the best song
you missed out perez they played last week at the el rey AND THEN right afterward played a DJ set at cinespace. danse party till 4 am. but they'll be at coachella same night as JUSTICE!
Hell yeah Chromeo rocks! I can't believe it took you this long to figure that out. I saw them live in Seattle a few months ago and they rocked it. They performed a Journey cover that was out of this world.
great funky song!!!
"unlike a lot of electro artists, they're not afraid of using live instruments." its not electro
bonafied lovin has been my ringtone for months now…now the world will know the brillance that is chromeo
way to jump on the bandwagon perez
You should check out their song "needy girl"
it's about time…
They are the hottest things coming out of Canada since Feist!
about time buddy. chromeo is the shit. they're my fav
LOVE THEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1 Can't wait to see them at Coachella!
ummm not in daft punk's league, but it isn't bad
This is fun.
old news perez…
Chromeo rocks! They're really good live too. They've been around for a while now though. Check out bonafied lovin. Oh and to all the idiot racists… neither of them are mexican and even if they were, what does that have to do with the music?
Man, you keep throwing your new buzz words "justice" and "daft punk" around like candy. They have nothing to do with Chromeo's sound. If you said Tiga or the stretching it fellow canadians MSTRKRFT I'd agree.
Why would this sound like it's from France? Are you that ignorant about music? Do you think all electro-ish material comes from there? You're an amateur music critic. This is merely more proof.
Dude, no offense, but what rock have you been hiding under?
Chromeo has had their foot in the game for 2-3 years now. Even MTV noticed, how the fuck can you be so late?
I like my Chrome Bros. but please, no Daft Punk or Justice comparison.You really need to STOP.
GOT ME UP OFF THE CHAIR!
that song isnt new… love it none the less… but its pretty dated buddy
You need to listen to more BBC Radio 1. Pete Tong or Annie Mac will keep you up to date.
OMG, I've loved Chromeo for like almost 3 years already.
its about time! you should check out the producers "the fliptones" too. they are doing biggggg things this year
i had the misfortune to see chromeo about four years ago when they were supporting someone good. they suck. their introduction made me laugh. As it does to think of how many losers have read this thread and probably now 'love' them. hipster scum.
fuck yes this band is awesome. dance party for sure last week! such cool guys
perez you should post one of their better songs to get folks into chromeo !
exhibit a. bonafied lovin
b. my girlfriend is calling me (a liar)
and yeah.. wayyyyy late on this band.. it's cool give the kids something to get excited about
oh my god!!! saw them at the Beaty Boy's concert in Montreal …. they rock!
Yeah, Perez. I wasn't gonna say anything. But Chromeo has been on my Recently Played list for quite a while now. I'm definitely in love with them and glad that you've finally given them some recognition. Maybe they can join the ranks of Rye Rye and Mika in the Perez Hilton Hall of Music!
I
way to miss their boat two years ago, mario.
Those teeth are MINGING.
FINALLY perez!! Chromeo is amazing good thing you discovered them =)
Those guys are from Montreal, québec, canada!!!!!
Montreal rocks soooooooooo much
by the way you should listen to FancyFootwork single
in the same music idea….go check the music band CREATURE
How can you even compare this shit-wannabe-crap with brilliance like Justice & Daft Punk, pleazeeeeee get a grip!!!
oh my fucking god. theyve been around for AGES! I've seen them live, theyre amazing. geez, you guys are a bit late on the scene
Dig up these tunes by Chromeo…"Ah Oui Comme Ca," "Me and My Man" and "Needy Girl." - MAMXO

Perez LATE? Hardly. Perez obviously gets paid for all these band plugs on this site. You people are so naive. We are all just lemmings to Perez's paid marketing….
Re: Jamie (Manchester, UK) – I totally agree with Jamie, Chromeo have been loved by the UK for like 3/4 years.
It reminds me of something that the Mickey Mouse kids would dance to. What's even worse is that they're doing an after party in New York. I didn't know 8 year olds were up that late.
FINALLY!!! I HAVE LOVED THESE GUYS FOR TWO YEARS. FUCKING AMAZING LIVE SHOWS.
Chromeo is amazing! Check out their other great tunes…100%, Tenderoni and Bonified Lovin.
BEEN A FAN FOR YEARS - THEY AREN'T IN THE SAME GENRE OF DAFT PUNK OR JUSTICE THOUGH. GET A FUCKING CLUE, DOUCHE BAG. - BEEN A FAN FOR YEARS - THEY AREN'T IN THE SAME GENRE OF DAFT PUNK OR JUSTICE THOUGH.

OMG they fuckin' ROCK!!!! LOVE THEM! They're even more amazing live and they opened for Beastie boys when they came to Montreal last fall! But its true Perez, they've been around for ages! "Overdrive" from their first album is dope!
Come see us in Montreal, you'll be impress with every thing we have to offer! Good looking girls/guys/amazin' food/music/clubs/shopping…
they have been around for ever. you just now heard of them? lame lard ass cunt! sidenote this song is on Need For Speed Pro Street too.
This is the first time Perez has posted about a group or artist that I'd already heard of. Seriously, what took you so long? I love Chromeo! I did feel pretty special for one upping you Perez, so thanks. I love your music taste so keep it up!
Perez, you are so late on EVERYTHING!
dude i've known chromeo for the past like 5 months.WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN?gotta love this song but needy girl is good too.perez you so need me to be your personal music shopper!!!i will hook you up with some sexy sexy music.love you perez you little devil!
Better late than never I guess. My fave song by them is Needy Girl.
A little behind the times Perez.
Chromeo, (aka David and P) are from Montreal, Canada. David currently lives in NY and P still lives in Canada. FYI for all you haters, they are not Mexican or Cholo's. They are actually the most down to earth guys ever. They have been around for years. I've seen them in LA on Jimmy Kimmel, El Rey Theatre, Cinnespace, Echoplex (Clubs). They just finished up their Fancy Footwork tour in the US and Europe. I'm sure they will only get bigger!
mama's boy is a better song by them
why is it americans catch on to everything good too damn late. Come up to montreal and see what electro is really about. I dare you…
I just saw them in concert !!! They were really good !!! The place was SOLD OUT !!
Have you heard needy girl by them? Its wicked! Plus the vid is 80s tastic!
OMFG WHY ARE YOU SO LATE WITH THIS BAND
Chromeo is the SHIT!!!
homeboy's got some Fancy Footwork, but he's a Momma's Boy!!!
Better late than never Perez!!!!
LOVVEEE Chromeo!
when i first heard them a while back, i was instantly tranported the best years of my imaginary 80s life - it doesn't get any better!
Come up to Montreal! The city here is amazing! You'll have a blast!
DOWNLOAD "NEEDY GIRL" MY CHROMEO…
ITS AN OLD TRACK BUT ITS AMAZING…MET THEM/PARTIED WITH THEM/SEEN THEM LIVE.
BEEN AROUND FOREVER AND THEY'RE UNREAL.
This band is the best! They call themselves "the only successful Jewish/Arab partnership since the beginning of time". ALL of their stuff is awesome!

LAAAATE ON THIS ONE!!!

That sucks that you found them! I was really enjoying the entire teen culture not knowing about them.
