In Flagranti is New York-based Sasha Crnobrnja and Alex Gloor, and this is their first full-length album. After a productive 2005-06 year with six 12" vinyl EPs, In Flagranti now release this record which compiles all the tracks from the now hard-to-find vinyl 12"s, with additional unreleased tracks on one CD. Wronger Than Everyone Else is difficult to pin down, though critics have compared In Flagranti with acts such as !!!, Daft Punk, The Rapture... or as one club promoter placed them, "New York's funkiest exponent of the ever-growing disco-punk revival." What the two members share is the simultaneous discovery of the Italian cosmic scene from the late '70s/early '80s electro: a scene that blended aspects of disco, Afro-rock, funk and dub. Especially with the start of Alex and Sasha's label Codek Records, their aim is to assemble different elements of art/graphic design and styles of music into a seamless flow, which ultimately led them to create In Flagranti, an act that would reflect and continue to explore the endless possibilities of a "cut and paste" aesthetic. From the electronic disco sound of Giorgio Moroder and Patrick Cowley to the punk funk of Liquid Liquid, A Certain Ratio and more contemporary sounds of today's dance music, Wronger Than Everyone Else is an erotic and humorous collage of all of the above. Already graced with bone fide underground club hits such as "Nonplusultra" and "We Make Love In a House Made of Glass," and with Time Out NY voting them as one of the Best in 2005, it looks like In Flagranti could be the wrongest rightest thing to originate in NYC for quite some time.
