"All Ensoniq SQ80 with some VST effects to make things a bit punchier, LOVE THAT THING, I only wish there were slightly more drum patches available.."
"Electric Blanket is the new musical disc by New Zealand's perpetually inventive Disasteradio. An isometric-topdown contemplation on post-synthpop, a collection of complex puzzles made of twisting pre-web 2.0 nostalgia. Experiments in alt. time signature danceability, mundane simulation computer-jazz and high-tech/low-tech life augmentation solutions. Electric Blanket is that virtual-companion, Iolo as musical consultant, guiding you through the treacherous terrain of NOW-MUSIC. Six songs of simple-as-Mandelbrot melodies, refill-brain-maze grooves and complex-strategies as life affirming anthems. Disasteradio (Luke Rowell) has been crafting his self-informed pop-music for the last 10 years. A career of effortless DIY fortified with Rowell's innate knack for imbuing his songs with an unrivalled stoner-academic wit. Coming off the back of his debut release under his other adult-contemporary/new-age pseudonym EYELINER, Luke has donned the Disasteradio moniker again to challenge you to not-not dance along with Electric Blanket.
Comfort yourself today with the lcd-radiance that is Disasteradio's Electric Blanket, like the prerequisite space-adventurers towel it's ill advised to be on-line without it.
