LawnChair Generals likely represent the next creative event in underground house music, a sound carefully crafted unlike much of the slapped together economy of the dance music prevelant to date. Carlos Mendoza and Peter Christianson met in 2000 and almost immediatelly began experimenting with the possibilities of house music. Their very first experiment yielded their first release on Viva Recordings, "The Great Escape". The pair was pleasantly surprised when this release garnered the praise of national and worldwide heavyweights alike. Charted in publications by the likes of Mark Farina and Colin Dale of the BBC, and broken out on dance floors by Johnny Fiasco, DJ Heather, Doc Martin, Rob Mello and more all over the world, their "West Coast meets Chicago" sound has garnered this pair more attention than they expected. Now LawnChair Generals have released their second original E.P. entitled U Dirty on Doc Martin’s latest imprint, Westbound, which has already been licensed to compilations by DJ Heather and Hipp-e and Halo. Remixes for Viva, Deepfunk and Amenti extend this duo's sound to the works of other emerging underground talents such as Hanna, Rhythm Slaves and Alexander East.
