    The Ting Tings

    Super Critical

      Third album from the million selling, award-winning pop duo The Ting Tings, AKA Jules De Martino and Katie White.

      A modern disco record, ‘Super Critical’ was inspired by the duo’s travels through New York and Berlin. It was written in Ibiza in an old hillside finca overlooking the sea, away from everything but the Ibizian club scene.

      After six months of solid writing the band accidentally befriended Duran Duran’s Andy Taylor and an experiment turned into a studio lock in and as a result both Andy and Jules act as co-producers for ‘Super Critical’.

      The album was mixed straight onto analogue tape in New York at the legendary Avatar Studios. It features the singles ‘Wrong Club’ and ‘Do It Again’.

      In the words of Perez Hilton, “The Ting Tings have gone super disco and it’s glorious.”

      The Ting Tings trademark which inspired the album title for bandmates Katie White and Jules De Martino is simple; to make tracks that sound different to the one before; to have musical freedom and to be held by no boundaries.

      ‘Sounds From Nowheresville’ didn’t come quickly to Katie and Jules. After achieving worldwide success with their debut album ‘We Started Nothing’ the duo spent a relentless two years touring before eventually returning to the studio. Following a brief spell in Berlin where they recorded and subsequently ditched a whole batch of songs they weren’t happy with; The Ting Tings packed their bags and landed in Southern Spain where they threw out the rule books and made music that made them happy.

      Jules said: “Everything before then had been a struggle. Suddenly it wasn’t. Everytime Katie went up to the booth she was nailing it. The lyrics were happening. The whole weight of our shoulders was lifted. This was enjoyable again. It was being dictated by its own energy again.”
