We have a host of new things we want to shout out about and scream from the rooftops. What excites us most is being live with all labels from Submerge and the Underground Resistance. Mad Mike Banks' digital catalog is available to us and you, the discerning music investor. After a stint in "Members of The House", Mike left and partnered with Jeff Mills in the industrial/EBM outfit Final Cut. Rob Hood would later join up as a graphics designer and vocalist and Underground Resistance was born. Mike is as much a man of ideas and education as a classically trained musician. He would continue to bring people together such as Alan Oldham (DJ T-1000) being one of the first official strike force DJs. It is hard to escape the influence of this massive giant of Techno. Even IntelliNET/+8's Richie Hawtin and John Aquaviva grew significantly as artists, DJs, label heads and distributors due to their friendly rivalry with Submerge. Mike has always made it more about the music than personality by keeping press photos of himself non-existent or by wearing a mask (hearkening to his former military days) or by using one of his muscle cars to parlay his own image. Mills and Hood left in 1992 and Mike continued to use Underground Resistance and Submerge as schools and breeding grounds for any motivated and devoted electronic "warriors".

Check out these records and this massive interview with Mike Banks (Wire, Novermber '07).

Need You - Darkstar (Hyperdub)

Need You - Darkstar (Hyperdub)

Album "Need You" by Darkstar on record label Hyperdub. Download MP3, WAV, FLAC.

Genres: dub, electronic

Track 1: "Need You" by Darkstar on record label "Hyperdub".

Track 2: "Squeeze My Lime" by Darkstar on record label "Hyperdub".

... Need You

This is Hyperdub-with-a-twist! Much brighter sound on this release + lots of vocoder love. "Need You" is a shuffly 2step number that borrows a couple dubstep tricks. "Squeeze My Lime" is a somber fugue, slowly plodding along, driven by this melodic pattern for about 2 and a half minutes before the beat really kicks in. There's something of Jay Dee inspired vibe here - loose programming, lush arrangements.

With Hot Pink Karma's "Play it Cool" you can hear where the label began. For the first Blank release Fil - rock machinist and beat control specialist, and Zuker - executive tonal sounds coordinator, team up to offer a barrage of rhythmic and tonal sounds that are known to cause movement when placed in the ear. Created as an experimental mixture of funk, blues, and soul, this duo continues to please crowds across the mid-west.
