Style
The band refers to its musical style as "DanceThink Music". Their music "combines elements from rock, dance, electronic, soul, punk, pop, and jazz music to engage the body and the mind". According to an album review, "This is fine, well-crafted music from a group with a mind of its own". According to band guitarist Lester, "It’s about writing music that’s as satisfying for your body as it is for your mind".
In 2008 Grammy-nominated engineer Mark Saunders, who has developed albums with Shiny Toy Guns and The Cure, produced the band’s debut album named DanceThink in the REEQ Studios in New York City.

Famous quotes containing the word style:
“The authoritarian child-rearing style so often found in working-class families stems in part from the fact that parents see around them so many young people whose lives are touched by the pain and delinquency that so often accompanies a life of poverty. Therefore, these parents live in fear for their children’s future—fear that they’ll lose control, that the children will wind up on the streets or, worse yet, in jail.”
—Lillian Breslow Rubin (20th century)
“A cultivated style would be like a mask. Everybody knows it’s a mask, and sooner or later you must show yourself—or at least, you show yourself as someone who could not afford to show himself, and so created something to hide behind.... You do not create a style. You work, and develop yourself; your style is an emanation from your own being.”
—Katherine Anne Porter (1890–1980)
“The history of all Magazines shows plainly that those which have attained celebrity were indebted for it to articles similar in natureto Berenice—although, I grant you, far superior in style and execution. I say similar in nature. You ask me in what does this nature consist? In the ludicrous heightened into the grotesque: the fearful coloured into the horrible: the witty exaggerated into the burlesque: the singular wrought out into the strange and mystical.”
—Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849)
