Classics is Ratatat's 2006 breakthrough, capturing their signature blend of electronic beats and melodic rock guitar. Recorded over several years between Brooklyn’s Casa de Éxitos and Pink Felt Studios in Upstate New York, the album highlights the duo’s evolving, instrumental sound with lush textures and inventive arrangements.
From the woozy cello on “Tropicana” to the infectious breaks of “Kennedy,” Ratatat experiments with new elements—like acoustic guitar, slide guitar, and sleigh bells—without losing their catchy edge. This release on XL Recordings showcases the band’s refined production and playful spirit, making Classics a standout in modern instrumental music.
