The Ting Tings -- a scrappy, dance-oriented indie pop duo consisting of singer/guitarist Katie White and drummer Jules De Martino -- formed in the Salford district of Manchester, England, in 2006. Quickly signed to the local indie label Switchflicker Records, the Ting Tings released their debut single, "That's Not My Name," in the spring of 2007. Following the limited-edition, tour-only single "Fruit Machine," the Ting Tings signed to major label Columbia Records later that year. The flip side of the Switchflicker single, "Great DJ," was released as the duo's debut major-label single in March 2008, followed by the reissue of "That's Not My Name" with a new exclusive B-side remix. "That's Not My Name" rose to the top of the U.K. charts in May 2008, the same month that the duo's debut album, We Started Nothing, appeared.

不知道是否还记得之前没几天发的一张NME的那张翻唱专辑,在一群大牌中夹着一支不知名的乐队,唱着不知名的49秒的小曲.诶,就是这个The Ting Tings用这短短的49秒打动了我.The Ting Tings可想也是NME下一个要捧起来的年轻乐队,至今还未发行过专辑,不过听了这张单曲我相信他们必定会大有所为.不停叫嚷着Thats Not My Name的那首《Thats Not My Name》的俏皮和止不住的倔强劲儿实在爱的一塌糊涂.

"Fruit Machine" is the second official single released by Salford band The Ting Tings in 2007. The single was limited to a 500-copy run.

UK two track CD pressing of this single pulled from the British duo's 2008 debut We Started Nothing. Jules de Martino and Katie White were amongst the front runners in the BBC's 'Sound for 2008' poll. Features two versions of 'Shut Up And Let Me Go': Main Version and Haji & Emanuel Mix. Columbia.
