Live Review: The Completely Boys 'Heartbreakers' EP

6 September 2015 | 9:00 am | Emma Jones

The Completely Boys are two busy guys: releasing a new EP, launching a monthly Sunday session, playing at Paradise and being late night house wizards.

THE COMPLETELY BOYS are a combination of two already established artists, but it's the joining of these forces that we are most excited about. Making music for "late night dance floor," the duo (Frames and B.O.O.M.A) are an unstoppable force when it comes to expertly pulled off late night house jams. 

Having already released a two track EP, Boy's Zone, just a few months ago, the boys have shown they aren't messing around and have released another two track. Titled Heartbreakers, this release again makes a beeline for the 3am slot in the club; hypnotic loops and minimal flourishes that still keep it on that party level, but focus on the groove instead to keep you moving 'til dawn.

Starting off with 'Let Me', an energetic house-funk track, The Completely Boys don't waste any time in getting their listeners into the groove of things. Bouncing synths, laser sounds and that inescapable house beat we all love, 'Let Me' is a party jam with a lot to give - a trend that continues with 'Work On You'.

Self described as a track that "leans on it’s own simplicity to lead the listener down a synth-laden rabbit hole", 'Work On You' sees the "less is more" approach exercised in full here. Letting the music do the talking, it's the restraint and the ability to know when it's JUST enough that makes 'Work On You' such a great track, and definitely one of their best.

The rest of the year is looking pretty good for The Completely Boys. Not only are they set to appear at this year's Paradise Music Festival, they're also launching a monthly Sunday session at Sydney's The Lord Gladstone. You can check details on that here, and take our word of advice to keep an eye on these guys - we're predicting even bigger things to come!
