Ministry Of Sound boss' novel
Ministry Of Sound boss, James Palumbo, is releasing his very first novel, the wild... [more]
Ed Banger cross-bearers Justice appear to have overestimated their pull in the US. The Grammy Award-nominated duo has been forced to downsize a planned live gig at New York’s Madison Square Garden to more humble surrounds.
Madison Square Garden is a Big Apple icon, and usually hosts polite, parent-approved acts like Bruce Springsteen, Whitney Houston, Elton John et al. Upcoming shows in 2008 include Matchbox Twenty, Linkin Park and Keith Urban … so you can see why the French electro boffins were being a little over-ambitious.
Justice will now play the WaMu Theater, a more ‘intimate’ setting within the Garden, on Tuesday 11 March. The show is under the MySpace Music Tour banner, and also boasts Chromeo, DJ Mehdi and Busy P.
As you most likely already know, the long-awaited Justice Fabric mix is not coming to a store near you. It was rejected by Fabric due to its insufficient length, or as Xavier de Rosnay puts it, “They weren’t ready for something like this.” The boys decided to release it anyway as a Christmas gift to their fans, so sniff around the web and you shall find.
Here’s Justice in all their tinnitus-inducing glory onstage in Paris.

Rated E says...
If there's any justice in the world then Justice will fade into obscurity before long.
locky says...
Louie...you dont scare me
djsimonmann says...
Justice, seriously, sound the same no matter what they do... boring fuzz and static to a beat. I'm surprised they haven't been eaten by the industry yet.
angy says...
Rejected by Fabric? Ouch...
morgs6 says...

coxdigweed says...

Mikey 684 says...
DP rocks all over Justice. Saw em both last year. Daft Punk BEST SHOW EVER!! Justice - well... they played there album.. Thats it!!
ikey_bro says...
I think i speak for alot of people when i say Daft Punk was the best live show Ive ever seen, on their own their tracks arnt amazing but mixed together live was ALL TIME!!!! Yeah justice are good but they got nothing on D.P... credit to their D.A.N.C.E tune but thats about it...
ehcoroche says...
i have to say DP owns justice, i saw justice, in canberra, then parklife and then afterlife, which was awesome, but i must say that parklife was the worst of the 3 performances, so.. dont judge too much on that show, justice were good, DP were just better

locky says...
ehcoroche...i saw them at afterlife also and they rocked. I mean,if you judge any artists performance by an outdoor festival gig,youve got serious problems.
locky says...
Hey donut... I saw both daft punk and justice.Im 36 so i was going gigs when you were an itch in your fathers nuts..This thread is like nazi gemany..Whatever you do,don't give opinion.At least one that differs from you load dance nazi'.
nojman says...
If their Parklife set was their live act they don't deserve to play in a corner milk bar. Sheesh....
Mr Speaker says...
I cant wait for their big noize maximal shyte to dissapear faster than it arrived.
donut152 says...
woow Locky you go to gigs nooo wayyy thatss soo way new age stuff,,darn i wish i could be like u whos 36 and go's to concerts, and says my comment doesnt count on behalf of like 90% of other people who would agree on the daft punk kicked ass for a live performance.. oo yeah whos been around longer daft punk or Justice Locky?? and to be clear i am also attracted to other types of music which inst dance music locks and i still think daft punk is still doin prity good for them selves.
scri303 says...
good to see the Juggers made it onto their mix
scri303 says...
All I can say is awesome mix. diverse styleee http://music.download.com/justicefabricrejectedmix/3600-8243_32-101105142.html
Frank_K says...
I liked their fabric mix, it's so fuckin' disco! Same style as their essential mix, but that was better. Fabric loses cred for rejecting any artist, I hope it really was because of the length.
johnny_woo says...
french electro blah blah blah, its fucking stale already!
sophieb90 says...
tinnitus inducing glory...... hear hear!
TRJLUGARNO says...
Nazareth (alkan mix) Nazi's (justice mix) c'mon people you cant knock justice
TRJLUGARNO says...
Justice @ the metro, australia day last year. would probably be the best thing i have seen so far, huntemann at future and probably justice the night before at BDO 07"... DP was hectic, but i didnt seem to feel it as much as the rest of the crowd. still amazing...
