Django Django joins host Stephen Kallao

For almost a decade, British band Django Django has consistently experimented with sounds, samples, and textures. The latest example?…The title track of their new record, Glowing in the Dark, is one of the best singles of the year so far, and it samples science-fiction writer Arthur C. Clarke reading a passage from 2001: A Space Odyssey. On the next World Cafe, bandmates David Maclean and Vincent Neff talk about their origins as a group and the mock wrestling matches that came about while on tour. Plus, Django Django preforms live.
