Double F.O.G – Death Star DISCO E.P – OUT NOW!
The force is strong in this debut E.P from Double F.O.G, a debutant nu-disco Jedi operating from Bandolier’s hidden base on Tatooine. The intergalactic action begins with “Death Star Express”, which is the kind of all-electronic, synthesizer-heavy nu-disco workout that would get storm troopers hot under the collar at Darth Vader’s bi-weekly discoid rave-ups. Despite the presence of chunkier, house style beats, “R2 Disco” has a more classic synth-disco feel, with swirling electronic strings and Clavinet lines combining to impressive effect. “Who’s Your Daddy?” is an even more driving, funk-fuelled affair full of elastic synth-bass, vocoder vocals and bubbly melodies, while the heavier but similarly minded closer “It’s Time To Go” sounds like it was created to get Ewoks break-dancing at their regular forest jams.
