History
Vancouver's Robbie Slade and Peter Ricq met in 2008, and started making music together in the summer of 2009.[1] They released a demo album in 2009.[2] In 2010, the duo released their first EP called Avec Mes Mecs, and produced a video for its title track.[3] Promotion through BIRP[4] (an indie music blog & monthly playlist) along with fan-made videos[5] ushered in the release of the official video in 2011.
Following up Avec Mes Mecs, the duo released their sophomore EP called Traps in 2012.[6] The release received high praise from publications such as DJ Mag, Exclaim!, and Resident Advisor.[7][8][9] A video for the song "Horizon" was premiered on Spinner.[10]
Techniques, technology, live performances
Humans have garnered a reputation for being a live act that is "full of unbelievable energy and ready to engage with the crowd."[11] Their visual presentation uses live audio input from their shows, allowing for improvisation in both their visual and audio performances.[12]
On tour, Humans have opened for Broken Social Scene, The Crystal Method, Junior Boys, and Clipse.[13]
