Two must be the magic number when it comes to pumping out roof-raising house anthems in Europe. Recent phenoms Justice, the Presets, and Simian Mobile Disco? All pairs. Standard- bearers Daft Punk, of course? Doubles or nothing. Germany's Digitalism? Here's a hint: more than one and less than three.

Like their peers, Digitalism-- a twosome comprised of Jens Moelle and Ismail Tuefekci-- rose to prominence in the mid-twenty-first century on the strength of some high profile remixes and a few key compilation tracks and singles of their own. And like those folks, Digitalism will soon give the world a proper document of their talents, in the form of debut full-length Idealism.

The 15-track album arrives June 5 via Astralwerks in the U.S., and May 21 elsewhere, courtesy of the illustrious Kitsuné imprint, Labels, or Virgin, depending on where you shop for records. It will be proceeded by bouncy first single "Pogo" on May 7. Like any good electronic duo, Digitalism are touring the world for the next 34 months-- including a handful of U.S. dates this week-- and playing a bunch of high-profile summer festivals, such as Coachella, Oxegen, and T in the Park.
