The Presets - loud and stomping music from Sydney
There comes a time when ruminations of global politics, positively, existentialism, travel and the Middle East just aren't enough. Time to put down the brain and turn up the stereo for an absolute ball blasting no thinker of a tune... I present: The Presets.
The Modular scene has been growing strong in Sydney for the last two years. Wolfmother, Cut Copy, the Presets, the Avalanches, Midnight Juggernought, Siminian Mobile Disco, Van She and a bunch of other retro fascist dance nuts have taken control of 'cool'... and damn they do it well. This uncouth collection of misfits now have a monopoly on the party scene... Victory.
This photo was taken at a festival in Sydney, back in June, one of my last days in my home town. I have glorious memories of The Presets (a two piece live electro band) completely tearing apart a hall of 5000 festival goers. Things were building to epic proportions and then they dropped this: Down Down Down... and blew the place apart.
The track puts distortion on EVERYTHING from the ridiculous drums to the dirty synth and vocals, any track that has the balls to drop its first breakdown in the opening 80 seconds of a six and a half minute track earns its place of honour...
The Presets - Down Down Down (Digitalism Remix)
and for more victorious dancing in the living room (not from Sydney but equally as cool):
Justice vs Simian - We Are Your Friends
