UK dance outfit Formation have announced their first record Look At The Powerful People and revealed a video for "Powerful People" directed by Mike Skinner.
Skinner tells Noisey about working with the electronic duo: "Working with Formation was like working with two old souls of culture but in the bodies of people who are all young and sexy. You can tell they are up to something that's going to draw people towards their party."
The "Powerful People" clip stars the UK Bike Life Collective.
Formation also have a selection of UK shows confirmed, including a date at London's XOYO on 22 March. Find out more.
