BobDobalina Posted November 14, 2011 Share Posted November 14, 2011 Haha Monkeytown - excellent!! According to their website the new album is called Parastrophics (thread title update?) Mouse on Mars "Parastrophics" (MONKEYTOWN022)CD, 2xLP, Download www.mouseonmars.com Mouse on Mars will release their 11th album, Parastrophics on February 24, 2012 as Monkeytown's 5th artist album. Mouse On Mars might have emerged as part of the great 1990s new wave of electronic music, but their restless, irreverent and wildly inventive work has always set them apart from their contemporaries. For Jan St. Werner and Andi Toma there is no division between the cerebral and the physical - they combine a connoisseur’s love of sonic texture with a hedonistic urge to dance. Even at its most complex, their music never feels too intellectual, and even at its most experimental it’s never forbidding. An album with singing bass drums, screwed up beats, tinnitus synths and some of the deepest bass the universe has to offer, Parastrophics is a thriving vision of the other side of experimental music. Discordance turns into pop as Alice in Wonderland bounces her booty to laser bass sounds, the likes of which would make Walt Disney jealously ponder the question, “Why didn’t I think of that?!” Parastrophics is glamorous, funky and deep. No speakers exist that could display all the details of such grand production. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kichiguy Posted November 25, 2011 Share Posted November 25, 2011 If your in Berghain, there's a 'pre listerning concert' for Parastrophics in Feb. https://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=195006043914913 Also, two interviews with Jan St Werner. Apparently their decision to go with Monkeytown was a 'belly decision'. http://www.dontpaniconline.com/magazine/music/mouse-on-mars http://jonnyabrams.blogspot.com/2011/11/interview-mouse-on-mars.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joseph Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 I actually think this could (possibly) be a great album now. I realized while listening to that last sample that in spite of all the autotuned vocals/etc. on the surface level, very few artists have what it takes to take pop level to the next level like Jan and Andi. Sort of like with Radical Connector - that's not my favorite MoM album, but I think it has moments of sheer genius where you realize that instead of bland pop music they're re-doing pop music their way, with the sounds they want, and giving it an undeniable Mouse on Mars baptism. So since its clear this one is going to be a "Radical Connector" and not a "Varcharz", I am hoping it succeeds in the same respects as the former.

kichiguy Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 Anybody familiar with the first track in this live set? Considering the direction this album is headed I wouldn't be surprised if it was on the album. The squelchy climax gives me Frosch-like feelings :) http://redbullmusicacademyradio.com/shows/1860/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
