The Twelves is an electronic production team and DJ duo named after the fact that both members, João Miguel and Luciano Oliveira, were born on the twelfth day of July in 1980. They formed in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil in 2005, and got their first break in 2007, when they remixed M.I.A.’s single, “Boyz." Miguel and Oliveira continued making remixes for other artists (including Daft Punk, Asobi Seksu, Black Kids, Erlend Øye, Fever Ray, and MSTRKRFT), and eventually their live sets earned them spots in major festivals. By 2011, they had not yet released an album of their own, but instead continued to focus on remix work, including an August compilation for the hip clothing line/record label, Kitsuné, titled Kitsuné Tabloid. ~ Jason Lymangrover
