TheFlyingChange

I’d not heard of Sam Jacobs A.K.A. The Flying Change before this email landed in the electronic rumors inbox. A bit of cursory research revealed a quite successful folk-esq singer/songwriter, very good at what he does but not something we would feature here.

However, with his new EP, ‘Singer/Songwriter’, he has dipped his toe into the world of electronic music with surprisingly interesting and listening results. Americana Folk with a big fat distorted synth? I’ll let you listen and decide but it’s a genre that shows promise! I think this foray into Electro is just an aside for Mr. Jacobs but one that was fun for all!

Indiscreet

French Electro artist Indiscreet has delivered something pretty special in his new EP, ‘The I’, not only does it contain four tracks of Ed Banger-esq noisy ElectroPop but also a narrative with accompanying online comic. Yes, I’m talking about a concept work here, which in the realms of Electronic Music tends to be a hell of a lot more interesting than Prog Rock concept albums of old.

Telling the time fractured story in which the protagonist lives through a self-fulfilling prophesy of the creation of a fascist future, governed by a giant eye (The ‘I’ of the title), the story is told in reverse through the tracks on the EP and in graphic form on Indiscreet’s MySpace.

So, the music? Aggressive ElectroPop with heavy distorted synths, hard Electro-House beats and angst fuelled vocals, create a more lyrical take on the Ed Banger sound. Unmistakable French, Indiscreet seem to be writing Hard Rock songs with electronic equipment and the merging of the Rock formula with banging noisy house akin to the likes of Justice and MSTRKRFT works in such a powerful way, like a controlled chaos.

I can only imagine that an Indiscreet show is a pretty awesome live.
