Simian Mobile Disco:Clocks EP


Jesus, it's been a while since the last post. It's amazing how three guys can be so lazy buy anyways, I'm bringing back the blog with...everyones favorite electronic duo. Simian Mobile Disco released the Clocks EP a couple months back but i can't stop listening to it and want to share it with everyone. You wont find a "Hustler" or "Hotdog" on it...which is nice in my opinion. The 4 tracks are instrumental that take you on an odyssey of minimal/techy/disco sounds. The standout track for me is "State of Things" which needs to be enjoyed in headphones. Grab a ticket now for the Mezzanine show on April 26th before they head out to Coachella. You will not be disspointed.
Grab all the vinyl,digital tracks you possibly can at Turntable Lab.
I also had to throw in another old remix that i slept on for waaaay too long. Night Facilities adds his trademark saw synths to my favorite track of ADSR.

TECH IS BACK:NEW MIDFIELD GENERAL TRACK



The techno giant is back with a new album after a very long hiatus. This doesn't mean Midfield General hasn't been busy. He has run the label, Skint, along with Fatboy Slim for over a decade has become BFF with the Ed Banger crew over the last few years. He remixed "Crazy Muthafuckas" for the very under-rated ed banger,Krazy Baldhead, as well as produced "D.A.N.CE" for Justice. The tables are turned for his next album with Justice and Soulwax producing all the tracks. He may have found some new trendy friends,but the General hasn't lost his techno roots.
One of my all time euro-tech favs along with Johannes Heil, i can't wait for more songs to flood the blogosphere! It doesn't hurt that one of the new leaders in tech, D.I.M, has put his dark and twisted touch to "Disco Sirens." Buy his and all the Skint roster here.

MOON GOONS EXCLUSIVE MIX!!!


These black-caped crusaders are not all just dark and evil. They are actually really nice guys and sent us an exclusive mix they recorded for SXSW! The duo is the Moon Goons and they hail from Minneapolis. Having been obviously influenced by the dark italo sounds form guys like Moroder,Robotnick, and Cowley, they bring a nice sinister sound to the electro scene. Listen to the track "Evil Organ$$" and you will know what i mean.

The Moon Goons look like they throw a pretty mean party as well. Their "Honey Moon" monthly has a new theme everytime. Past themes have been "moms" as well as "zombie aerobics" and volume 8 coming up is "white trash yourself."How awesome is that? Please go check out their myspace or official website and show them love. Don't forget to tell them Digital Bombs sent you. Stay evil.

TODD TERJE: EURODANS AND EDITS

Before we start, i would like to say how tired iam so excuse me if this post isn't up to par. It's been awhile but I'm back with a BANG! I got you some tracks from Euro-Disco legend Todd Terje. Apparently, "Eurodans" was made to be the most cheesiest,most ridiculous disco track he could make. What started as a joke, became a world-wide sensation when Clone Records head,Prins Thomas, heard the demo and released a limited amount on wax. Like his fellow Norwegians Lindstrom and Prins, the dude has the nu-disco sound down like no other. Filtering that old school-soul of days past with 21st century production, Todd is def. my artist of the month. I can't get enough!! Along with his original track featured, i threw some edits in for good measure. And when i say edits, i don't mean a couple measure thrown out here or there. I'm talking a full-scale opus going on in this shit.

Buy his work at the Clone store or head over to Juno and find plenty of remixes and edits to fill your crates.

Todd Terje- Eurodans

The Beegees- You Should Be Dancin' (Todd Terje edit)

Chic- I Want Your Love (Todd Terje edit)

Oh Snap!!


This late night/early morning post comes courtesy of Maryland's Oh Snap!! Self-dubbed as "your favorite mediocre white boy" Oh Snap!! has a fresh sense of humor that is a welcome break from the often hyper-sexual world of rave rap scene. The remix of his track "Bill Cosby Sweater" comes from Scotland's Hostage and shows a slight departure from the usual banger. This tracks should generate just as many grins as it does dancing bodies; it makes me wish that I could pull of a "Cosby" sweater and some reebok pumps.
