Electro-Banger of the Week #3, Banger #10
No fuss electronic music here this week, no experimental, no hybrid electronic with indie pop or whatever, Just straight out hard bangers from Justice, the french band who i've previously referred to here. Basically though, i think it's pretty worthless giving these guys an introduction because of how well they're known, worldwide.
This one's called Planisphere, and if you don't know it yet, you definitely should.
It's a song that they did for Dior's Spring-Summer 2009 show, so that means that it's basically 17 minutes of unrelenting electronica. More justice is definitely to come in these posts, but this song is something else. Like Cross, their album (the follow up to which is coming soon), this song is amazingly composed, really good in the way it refers back to itself and has that delightfully Justice synth tone. But don't let me spoil it with my ridiculous assessment.
Listen for yourselves.

I've Fallen and I Can't Get Up!
ad for an american health-emergency product of some description.
the use of the word "summon" is what i find hilarious about this,
other than the signature line, of course.
my childhood
we also sell frozen yogurt, which i call frogurt!
i was saying boo-urns
this entire scene, but particularly the aurora borealis line:
"seymour what is that red glowing coming from your kitchen"
"its... the aurora borealis"
"the aurora borealis. the northern lights.
at this time of year,
at this time of day
in this part of the state, localised to your very kitchen"
"yes"
"well may i see them?"
"no"

Electro-Banger of the Week Post #2, Banger #9
This weeks offering is a bit of a different kind of electro-banger.
This artist has featured already on my previous "Banger of the Week" post, but this song is just something else. It's another offering from the Animal Collective, and it's called "Peacebone".
the first time i heard this song i thought of it as a wall of noise, and that i may as well have just listened to white noise on a detuned TV.
Then the song moved beyond the 27 second point and i realised exactly what they were doing.
enjoy
also the video is something else. these guys are really cool and they do really fun things.
i implore all of y'all to listen more
