Download: Electricity by Supertronic
Artist: Supertronic
Album: Wire Fire
Track 1: Electricity 160 kbps 44kHz Stereo MP3 4:52
I was having a conversation today about this retro future shit and it reminded me of this track from Supertronic. Supertronic made one album called Wire Fire in the mid 90's. I guess you could call it "electro-acoustic noisepop." It's an audio mashup before there were "mashups." If Negativland puked after being electrocuted and some beat freak cleaned up the mess, you might get Supertronic. "Electricity" is one of the goofier tracks. It features the following instruments: electricity, a short wave radio, a dot matrix printer, ground coffee, a light theremin, a vacuum, and steamed milk. I like it because of the robot. It also happens to be my band.
electric. we should use this as a soundtrack for our retro project.
