Justice is a Parisian DJ/production duo formed in 2003, comprised of Gaspard Augé and Xavier De Rosnay, affiliated with major electro label Ed Banger Records. They built a reputation in the European electro community through self-released EPs and well received remixes of songs by artists like Britney Spears, N.E.R.D and Franz Ferdinand. Their debut album, known as “Cross” but whose title is merely the symbol of a cross, was released in 2007 and earned them a Grammy nomination for Best Electronic/Dance album and Best Dance Recording as well as being #15 on Pitchfork’s Top 50 Albums of 2007. The group followed with the “D.A.N.C.E” EP (2007), earning them the title of “Best French Act of the Year” at the European Music Awards.
Justice released a DVD/Documentary film entitled “A Cross The Universe” in 2008. On the supporting tour, a picture surfaced showing part of the group’s equipment unplugged, leading to accusations that the two had been faking their live shows. They responded by explaining that the machine was only unplugged briefly before the problem was fixed. Following this, the group won a Grammy in 2009 for their remix of MGMT’s “Electric Feel” in the Best Remixed Recording, Non-Classical category.
Their second album “Audio, Visual, Disco” was released in October, 2011.
