The 2004 album
Any Minute Now spawned three singles in "E Talking", "NY Excuse" and the title track. "E Talking"'s
music video was controversial and restricted to post-
watershed broadcast on
music television channels. Set in
London's Fabric nightclub, everyone in the video is depicted as being on a different drug, from A-Z (including popular drug
nicknames). http://youtube.com/watch?v=lH-wuTV8TnY
The duo has also produced a number of official and unofficial remixes, including "
Daft Punk Is Playing At My House" by
LCD Soundsystem, "
Robot Rock" by
Daft Punk and "DARE" by
Gorillaz. The album
Nite Versions (
2005) is a collection of remixes of tracks from the album
Any Minute Now. David and Stephen are friends of artists
Tiga, LCD Soundsystem and Whomadewho.
In summer 2006, Soulwax completed a 'Nite Version remix' of
The Gossip's "Standing in the Way of Control", as well as their "Ravelight Dub" and "Ravelight Vocal Mix" of
Robbie Williams' "Lovelight". The summer 2006 tour was filmed by director
Saam Farahmand, and resulted in a Radio Soulwax documentary, "Part of The Weekend Never Dies". The film will be premiered in the band's hometown of
Ghent in October 200].
As of August 2006, Soulwax are working on tracks for the new album from
Tiga. In late 2006, it was announced in Belgian magazine
HUMO that David and Stephen Dewaele had formed a
krautrock band with
Riton called
Die Verboten.
In 2007, Soulwax produced remixes of "
Gravity's Rainbow" by
Klaxons, and "Phantom Pt. II" by
Justice. Remixes for "Ice Cream" by
New Young Pony Club and "Pogo" by
Digitalism had been rumoured, but were never completed..
Soulwax, under the guise of 2 Many DJ's, headlined their own 'Radio Soulwax' tent at the
Rock Ness Festival held on 9 June 2007. The following day at Rock Ness Festival, they played a Soulwax Nite Versions show in the 'Clash Arena.' Later that month, they took part in the
Wild in the Country event at
Knebworth Park on 30 June 2007.
