ON-OFF, “Space Tokes” [ON-OFF]
The first track today comes to us from Stan over at ON-OFF, a blog I hold in high-esteem. I had no idea he produced (it’s always cool when music bloggers throw their hats in the ring), but he’s got quite a knack for it. Sez he, “it’s made with a broken Roland JX-8p and an Elektribe drum machine.” Its swooping fluorescent progressions face off with fleet-footed synth stabs and spacious claps, becoming a bit of a body-jacker as it progressively works itself into a froth. A bit spare and simple in a manner similar to some second wave Detroit techno. Honestly, I’m pretty impressed and rate this among some of the month’s best. Let’s hear more, Stan!

monkey steals the peach – maybe a new track name?
Loving the posts recently (well always, but you know).
I just have to comment on that picture! Goes perfectly with the ON-OFF track
yo! Hillarious flick, had a long laugh over this one… yo, send me a proper email to charlie@soulclap.us, was wondering if you’d like to give us a mix to add to our podcast sometime?
