Take an '80s synth plus tympan car fundament and top it with a bit of psychedelia and classical pop and you're close to the sweet electronic sound of Beats for Beginners, the Manchester, England chemical group formed by leader Mike TV. After being observed by Mint Royale member Neil Claxton, the dance orchestra was signed to Claxton's Faith & Hope label in 2003. They released the "Kill All DJ's" single that yr and followed it up in 2004 with their uncut debut Don't Fly into the Sun. Mike TV also collaborates with the Doves' keyboard player Martin Rebelski for the side project Stickers on Keys.
