Sorry, kids.  This work week’s been a bit taxing so I haven’t been able to give Adchops the love.  But here’s a vid that’s hopefully worth the wait and will get you pumped for your weekend (for those of you with a pulse, that is) - it’s Rabbit in the Moon’s remix of Bowie’s “Let’s Dance”.

The song isn’t really exploring any new boundaries musically - it’s kind of a Bowie/Rage Against The Machine/early Depeche Mode/Prodigy electro-industrial mashup (yeah, that commenter is me.. I’m not plagiarizing!).  But my god does it get your blood going!

Why am I posting this on Adchops, you ask?  Well, there is one novelty to it - electronica propaganda (propaganda, marketing…same diff).  Unlike rock n roll which is saturated with “message music”, electronic music has pretty much stayed out of the fray.  You’ve got your house music that’s meant to get you in a happy, party mood.  Trance is your “take some drugs and feeeel the music” music.  Industrial and much of techno are your “I am reeeeally pissed right now, but I am still going to dance!” music.  But not much has been done along the lines of social or political commentary.

Rabbit in the Moon is definitely bringing it, as you can see in the vid.  They’ve long been known for their spectacle, so I suppose this is to be expected in their evolution.  Ok, enough of my yammering.. enjoy the vid!

Oh, and their site kicks a lot of ass too!
