If you think that electro*cash* is "fashion music" and that it "completely misses the point", then I heartily recommend the new Parallax Corporation CD, on DiskoB, Cocadisco. http://www.diskob.com From the site: ""Electroclash" all over the place. After Electro, in his 80" s retro " outfit, has developed to the rouling sound of international fashion expositions and Miss Kittin even appeared on a homeless magazine announcing: "Electropop! The Sound Of The Summer" decorated in sweet " coloured letters, one of the most influential Electro " Artists I"f and his partner Intergalactic Gary as The Parallax Corporation are coming on with the counter " attack on Gucci / Prada " Electro. And even though I-f and his Parallax Corporation were recently called one of the "10 essential players" of "Electroclash" by the english NME, they set completely different signs then the ones we are used by Neo " Electro " Pop, always trying to enbody Style, Sex, Glitter and Decadence. The NME wasn" t that wrong when it discribed The Parallax Corporation as "brutal italo " disco " noir". The movie "The Parallax View" (R: Alan J. Pakula, 1974) served The Parallax Corporation as visual pattern for their album. The affinity for the metaphorical story of the film is getting together with I-f" s humoristic pessimism and his scepticism about media, fashion and politics. For this reason the exception " artist decided early to work in independent networks. The sound of the two last Disko B releases "Fucking Consumer" and "Man from P.A.C.K" " sited somewhere between Techno, Acid " melodies, analogue synthesizer " soundscapes and electro " has been expanded by the component "COCADISCO": a mixture that quotes (Italo) " Disco and Funk in a bastardy way and is gorgeously put in scene by the Soul of Nancy Fortune" s, Fred Ventura" s and Mr. Melvin White" s vocals.I-f is a consequent musician and tactician, considered as one of the freshest composer of the Electro " Scene. The team " work with Intergalactic Gary at Parallax CorporatioN has focused the view: Real Electro by Realy People and finish with the Non " Stop electronic Cabaret!"
