What an amazing 180-degree flip from the hard-as-nails grimy aesthetic of last year’s electro “banger” to today’s tremendously polished disco aesthetic, which dictates that every synth be scrubbed clean until it glistens so that the vocals - wonderfully chilled from their round-trip gliding through the cosmos - can skim across each one with nary the [...]

If internet porn wasn’t technically already, I’d say this track is the electronification of sex (don’t worry, it’s a real word). Hooray for Discodust, who finally got permission to post it so now everyone else can too.

So I just woke up far too early again for no apparent reason. Fortunately I found these sitting in our inbox, so I guess it’s not so bad, but I’m watching you, body clock. Don’t think I don’t know what you’re trying to do, wearing me down so you can eventually usurp my body and [...]
