Биография

Chikinki 5-piece formed in Bristol. Holed up in their shared house they recorded their first album, 'Experiment With Mother' and set about learning how to weld dirty synths to catchy pop. Shortly after this they were snatched up by Island Records who gave them their first big-studio experience by pairing them up with producer Steve Osborne to record the album, 'Lick Your Ticket'. Chikinki were too busy touring with the likes of Kasabian, The Kaiser Chiefs and The Charlatans at the time to realise that these were the last days of the Major Recording Empire. Subsequently Chikinki turned their attention to other shores and found refuge in the arms of more family-sized record companies such as Kitty-Yo and Weekender and their album 'Brace, Brace' acquired plentiful radio play with its single 'You Said' and represented their tauter, tighter live sound. From festival stages to Berlin Techno clubs; from Texas to Moscow, from champagne-sodden fashion parties to run-ins with the bothersome Bavarian Border Police - it was an interesting time. So when Chikinki decided to set up to write and record a new album in Berlin's Studio East it was clear that it would have a lot to say for itself. 'Bitten’, the long-term synth pop adventurists fourth album, is a bold amalgamation of glam-rock, jangle-guitared pop, fuzz-synthed rock and electro-disco.
