It's been an amazing journey so far and The Subs have no intention of slowing down, but while they gear up for the future, this tenth anniversary is also the perfect moment to look back at their heritage with A Decade of Dance, a best-of-album containing 18 previously released tracks and one new single.

For their third full-length release, Belgian dance act The Subs decided to make a pop album with heartfelt soul, filmic French retro-futurism and crisp beats. Hologram is an album that displays many moods and styles and sees The Subs working together with both renowned international vocalists and underground singers and rappers: Colonel Abrams, Selah Sue, Jean-Pierre Castaldi, Jay Brown and Danny Greene. With two albums under their belt, Jeroen De Pessemier (David Newtron) and Wiebe Loccufier (DJ Tonic) have been touring around the world -- London, Barcelona or Sydney, Tomorrowland, Bestival, Lowlands, Les Eurockéennes -- you name it. Some major changes took place within the band over the past years. In 2012, songwriter/frontman Jeroen De Pessemier moved to London, absorbing new musical influences there like the UK garage and house revival. After the release of their second album Decontrol (LL 009CD), Wiebe Loccufier started producing beats and evolved from DJ into producer. Finally, by recruiting Hadrien Lavogez, The Subs got themselves a genuine multi-instrumentalist with an incredible knack for melody. This whole new dynamic pushed The Subs towards a more pop-based sound for Hologram. "Trapped" is a rendition of the 1985 street-smart R&B hit by Colonel Abrams. Urged by that other colonel, their good friend Mon Colonel of the Liège-based squad The Party Harders, The Subs invited the legendary American singer to Belgium to re-record his vocals. In the end, the original acapella got cleared after all, but Colonel Abram's visit to Belgium wasn't entirely unnecessary: he left The Subs with some good stories. Another international icon who paid a visit to the Subs studio is French actor Jean-Pierre Castaldi: one might know this veteran of cinéma from the Astérix movies. Castaldi is the deep, warm voice that you hear on "Concorde," an upbeat retro-futuristic track that is both an ode to the supersonic wonder of 20th century technology and a love song. Deep emotions are laid bare on the bouncy "Live in a Dream" (Selah Sue) and the dreamy, trip-hoppy "Fly" (London-based Jay Brown). Jay Brown is actually VV Brown's talented younger sister: a singer-songwriter that Jeroen discovered during an open mic night in London. Brown can also be heard on the tracks "27," "Under My Skin," "Cling to Love," "The Hand" and "Hologram." This album is brimming with energy, but the dark dance-punk of the previous record has been traded for a much more soulful vibe. Wiebe: "From hip-hop to UK house, we absorbed a lot of influences, but this is still Subs-music." "The Bottle" features a monologue by Danny Greene, an underground grime artist Jeroen bumped into in London, and the track is philosophical, naïve, arrogant, hilarious and funky at the same time. Hologram is The Subs' most accessible and experimental record to date. Housed in an amazing holographic digipack + booklet.

"We should really work together one day." There's no bigger cliché to be heard in backstage areas, that mythical transit zone where producers and DJs meet, chat and then hop on their tour buses again. Belgian dance-act The Subs heroically plotted collaborations with fellow musicians in various dressing rooms across the globe. What is truly heroic is that in their case, those nightly encounters led up to actual music, and some damn fine music, too. Collaborations is an EP on which The Subs joined forces with both iconic names and underground producers like Etienne de Crécy, Alex Gopher, Zombie Nation, and John Roman.

After the success of The Face Of The Planet and Don't Stop, The Subs bring you their newest single, the title-track from their album Decontrol (LL 009CD). It's a slow, sleazy & sexy song that builds and builds toward its apotheosis: "We want your mad soul, we want decontrol." Decontrol is backed by some amazing remixes from D.I.M., Aquarius Heaven, and Black Strobe.

The too-cool-for-old-school house cut "Don't Stop" is the love child of the first The Subs vs. Highbloo musical encounter, when Highbloo was not part of the band yet. A very spontaneous I-feel-good-and-I-wanna-go-to-the-pool-maybe-have-a-barbecue-but-surely-invite-some-friends-and-shake-it-to-the-floor kinda track. Lush and summer-ish. To finish the package, there are crazy remixes by Beataucue, Autoérotique and Le Petit Belge & Le Cheval.

Since their eponymous debut album Subculture (LL 005CD) landed at the dusk of 2008, Belgium's The Subs have played more than 160 shows, travelled to 14 countries, used 12 different airline companies, 2 tour buses and 1 private jet. Between the three of them, they've mailed about 250 post cards and drank about 80 bottles of vodka. On the road, they've lost 5 iPhone adapters and 6 pairs of earplugs. 480 t-shirts were sold and they've counted at least 12 stage invasions and 13 scuffles with venue security. The band remembers 10 speeding tickets and were questioned by the police at least 3 times. They've made 6 music videos, launched 1 blog and recorded 3 videocasts. About half of the past 730 days they've spent inside a studio, 45 demos were made and 21 different versions of new artwork got rejected. About 28 hours were spent discussing the definitive tracklist, but it's here -- the second album by The Subs: Decontrol. A lot has happened to the crew since their electro-rave-punk-powered train started rolling: they also released their acclaimed Vomit In Style EP, featuring stellar remixes from Mixhell, Don Rimini and Les Petits Pilous. Their smash hit "The Pope Of Dope" is absent on this album, but he gave his blessing to the too cool-for-old school house cut "Don't Stop," the hyperactive rave jam that is "The Hype," the hard-hitting techno beats of "The Visible Man" and the French movie soundtrack-inspired "Hannibal (And The Battle Of Zama)." There's even some profound philosophies hidden inside Decontrol -- the universally-appealing club anthem "The Face Of The Planet," for instance, or "Lemonade." Or, as Papillon puts it, "Decontrol is much less a 'fuck you' album than Subculture, and more an 'I'd like to fuck you' album." The Subs are: Jeroen De Pessemier aka Papillon, Wiebe Loccufier aka DJ Tonic and Luca Di Ferdinando aka Highbloo.

The Lektroluv label thinks this remix EP is amazing. Which can only mean one thing: it contains bangers. Mixhell, Les Petits Pilous, Don Rimini and VNNR all simply puked out some remixes of The Subs' "Vomit In Style."

Subculture is the debut album from Belgium electronic upstarts The Subs. With a name like The Subs, you could be forgiven for thinking this three-piece is a classic punk band. Well, they are rambunctious and do tear up the rule book. These beat mavericks turned the dancefloor gold in 2008 with Kiss My Trance, a punk-trance-juggernaut of a hit single which landed in the top 20 national singles chart in Belgium and their profile has just grown and grown. The Subs are Jeroen De Pessemier aka Papillon (singer/producer), Wiebe Loccufier aka Tonic and Stefan Bracke aka L'entrepreneur. Over the last year, The Subs have enthralled audiences with a live show comprising of a unique set up; 3 men with a laboratory of decks, synths, effects and a microphone. They do not hide behind laptops, and with their raving frontman, The Subs take the sweaty punk-trash essence to the dance stage. The Subs are not your average "let's mess around with some analog machines" band. They fought with the machines until a consistent album, a true body of work, came about. Papillon being the songwriter-half (brought up on landmark '90s dance-albums from the likes of Daft Punk, Chemical Brothers and Underworld) and Tonic being the DJ/songwriter with a passion for brand new underground releases and innovative sounds, The Subs have made an album with songs lurking underneath the sounds. Subculture is a dance album that you can listen to anywhere: in your car, in your living room, in your bedroom. The mood is intense and brooding. Featuring the singles "Fuck That Shit," "Papillon" and the massive "Kiss My Trance," it's a downright dirty stunner with gripping, euphoric peaks and melancholy-riddled melodic moments. That's how we like our punk.

Papillon part 2 comes with the wonderful funk-filled groovathon remix from Shinichi Osawa. To round out the package, you get the ultimate head-fuck that is "Naked Jack." This is a supreme package of music from The Subs that showcases their sound perfectly. A sound that was recently perfectly described as "dirty underbelly electro disco tech."

After their monster tunes "You Make Me Spill" and "Substracktion" and their remixes for Telex, Sharam Jey, dEUS and Lotterboys, The Subs present their biggest record to date. "Fuck That Shit" is a track that is going to be reeeeally big at all the festivals. "Kiss My Trance" is exactly what you'd expect from it after reading the title -- cut-up and fucked-up trance à la The Subs. Even after only a few records, these guys already manage to have their very own sound. The Subs are going to be major.
