UNDERWORLD - 'Crocodile'

The days are indeed getting shorter, but it feels as though they are getting longer as we anticipate the new UNDERWORLD album, "Oblivion With Bells". But here is something to help wet the appetite leading up to the October 16th album release - the brand new video for the first single 'Crocodile'.

GUS GUS - 'Hold You'

I've been a huge fan of GUS GUS since their first album "Polydistortion". The line up has changed quite a bit since those days, but the smooth, sexy electro sound is still there. Their latest single 'Hold You' features the lovely Earth on vocals and walks the same line as the Gus Gus classic 'David'. The single comes from the awesome new album "Forever". Check it out!

FELIX DA HOUSECAT - 'Future Calls the Dawn'/'Sweetfrosti'

'Future Calls the Dawn' is the lead off single from FELIX DA HOUSECAT's forthcoming "Virgo Blaktro and the Movie Disco" LP, tentatively set for a September 2007 release. 'Sweetfrosti' and 'Moviedisco' have been rumored to be the album's first and second singles, though 'Future Calls the Dawn', backed with ' Sweetfrosti' has just emerged on iTunes as a digital single. 'Future..' finds Felix in a tranced out state, very different from his usual 'album' tracks, while 'Sweetfrosti' shows Felix growing upon his sound, while utilizing endless nights spent listening to old DEVO records.
