Dan Deacon - Bromst

Release date: March 24th, 2009

Label: Carpark Records

5/5

Length: 1h

Get older, get your Wet Wings, says Dan Deacon an electronic Avant-gardist from Baltimore. One of the top experimental bands these days among with Gang Gang Dance, The Octopus Project and Black Moth Super Rainbow.

The new record released a while ago, still takes a while to chew it propally. He is still on his own, but sounds at least like a trio.

New album is resonant, cheerful & noisy, but the variety of sounds is enormous, it is crazy like a kindergarden. Image your young brother playing old computer games, pressing one button all the time, imagine this in a dance rythm, with a blank TV-screen sound on the backgroung, this is Bromst!

Recommended tracks: Build Voice, Red F, Woof Woof.

Rainbow Arabia - The Basta EP

Release date: 2nd of September, 2008

5/5

Label: UK label Merok

Length: 20:40

Today music is overdosed with a heavy amount of everything and nothing, and to understand who is worth listening nowadays is a hard exercise, and being able to sing or play the guitar is not enought, you have to be a bit deviant and weird. This is what New Weird America seems to be doing, bringing to life their new fresh pixies of avant-garde.

Rainbow Arabia is another couple with electronic drums, but.. if you have not heard them before, then you have not heard anything like that at all. They are definitely one of the most original bands of the 21st century, where the number of new bands seems to be bigger then the amount of stars in the universe. It is like New Year's clapper, bright and loud, flying out with Lebanese synthesizers and serpentine guitar lines, psychedelic, tribal world sounds of Arabia and female yelling make the great mixture of punk-dance ethnic tunes in terror act costumes they look and sound weird. They are aboriginal population of everything and nothing deviant.

Recommended tracks:Letthem Dance, See no Hear No, The Basta

Both of their videos are strongly recommended to be watched:
