Big Gigantic, whose blend of mind-bending beats, thunderous bass, and frenetic

melodies has developed a rabid following since forming in 2008, has taken their

sound to yet another dimension with the release of their newest album 'Nocturnal'

(available now for FREE download at www.biggigantic.net). The album, by Boulder,

CO-based saxophonist/producer Dominic Lalli and drummer Jeremy Salken,

solidifies Big Gigantic as a key player in the worlds of electronic, dance, and hip-hop.

With a provocative sound that's as thoughtful as it is danceable, Big Gigantic's new

songs like "Nocturnal" and "Hopscotch" weave whirling melodies into addictive

beats and samples that wouldn't sound out of place on a Kanye West or LCD

Soundsystem single. No genre is off-limits for Big Gigantic, whose breakthrough

sound channels everything from funk and dub-step to house and hip-hop.

After graduating with a master's degree in jazz at the Manhattan School of Music,

Lalli relocated to Boulder and began performing with Salken, experimenting with

the idea of interpreting traditional DJ-based music with live instruments. The duo

built up early hype in 2008 with local shows and one-offs around the country before

releasing their debut album 'Fire It Up’ in 2009 and embarking on a full US tour.

Already a smash on the festival circuit, Big Gigantic's transcendent live shows are

a showcase of brilliant improvisation and a tightly-knit bond between Salken and

Lalli, who breathlessly alternates between keys, sax and laptop, building a futuristic

wall of sound that keeps the crowd on its feet. The marathon shows feature a variety

of songs new, old and unreleased, as well as outside-of-the-box remixes including

Wiz Khalifa's "Black and Yellow," Aloe Blacc's 'I need a Dollar,' and Notorious

B.I.G.'s "Notorious Thugs."
