Mouse on Mars

Perhaps it's due to their 10th anniversary, but Germany's Mouse On Mars have never been more festive. Certainly, they have spent the last decade generating tweaked tonalities in a vast array of rhythmic templates, many of which activated sweat glands in addition to thought bubbles. From vaporous cybervoids to dubbed-out downtempo and beyond, Jan St. Werner and Andi Toma have maintained a continuously adjusted balance of e-brain rapture and techy investigation.

It seems like Mouse on Mars is digesting a steady diet of spatial free-jazz and cocaine-fried booty funk to deliver their sparkling chaos and glorious precision in their energetic live sets. "beats become tonal, melodies become syncopated and the whole song changes complexion."
