Holy Ghost at Beta
Making music together since their teens, Alex Frankel and Nicholas Millhiser signed to Capitol Records in 2000 as part of New York hip-hop group Automato. Eventually, the duo split off to pursue a different perspective, reemerging in 2007 as DJ team Holy Ghost, releasing its first (and seemingly only) single “Hold On” for taste-makers DFA. Much like LCD Soundsystem, Holy Ghost’s work—both on record and live—is equal parts nü-disco and New Order, utilizing both vinyl and laptop methods. Reworking the sounds of MGMT, Moby, and Phoenix, Holy Ghost’s The Remixes Vol. 1 mixtape was released last year, and includes the Brooklyn Youth Chorus’ highlighted single, “I Will Come Back.”
