You'll probably know the Dewaele brothers, aka 2 Many DJs, better through their funky bootleg mashes of songs by the likes of Michael Jackson and AC/DC, than their band Soulwax.

Hailing from the small Belgian town of Ghent, Stephen and David are the offspring of Zaki, a popular DJ in the Sixties, and grew up in a house surrounded by records.

"My father was always the first to receive things from Apple and EMI," says David. "The Small Faces slept in our house and Stan Getz came to visit - it was amazing."

With such an upbringing, it is not too surprising that the duo eventually ended up carting their decks around the European nightclub circuit.

But they are currently touring the UK with their five-piece band.

"Soulwax has been going for more than ten years," David says.

"The band came first, but DJing is something that we grew up with and have been doing for years.

"2 Many DJs blew up almost accidentally after Soulwax, but we are the same people."

The band's second album, Much Against Everyone's Advice, was released in 1998 and propelled them to European success. Featuring the classic dance track Too Many DJs, the accompanying video represented the brothers as losers - ironic given that Stephen and David were by then making a lucarative career out of spinning and remixing tunes.

Comparisons are inevitable between the band's sound and the hugely popular 2 Many DJs sets, but David doesn't feel that being involved in both means the sounds merge.

"Soulwax is first and foremost a rock band," he says.

"I keep hearing that it's hard to catergorise us but I would definitely call us a rock band. Even when it's a bit electronic it's still rock.

"The only similarity is that both Soulwax and 2 Many DJs want to make music that gets people up to dance."

Because the 'Flying Dewaele Brothers' were occupied remixing the likes of Kylie and Ladytron, the third Soulwax album, Any Minute Now, took three years to hit the shelves.

Finally released last year, it is a global effort produced partly in New York, London and Ghent. The band joined forces with 'Uber-knob twiddler' Flood (who has produced bands like the Smashing Pumpkins, PJ Harvey and Nine Inch Nails) and Alan Moulder, of Depeche Mode and Yeah Yeah Yeahs fame, to successfully merge electro-dance with hard rock.

"It's some of the dirtiest stuff out there right now," David says. "It's so unpolished and full of mistakes. The sound is f****** up!"
