Electric Laser People

Brainy mechanical technical engineers having a juvenile wit, D.We.Y. punk rock and roll strategy, and strong feeling of creative irony, Electric Laser beam People undertake old-school rap design within a whimsical way by draping absurd lyrics over minimal digital sound files and electric guitar crunches, such as a sonic merging of Ratatat and Certified to Sick. Frontman/bassist Dan Paluska, guitarist Offer Kristofek, and drummer Clark Kemp fulfilled in MIT grad college around the switch from the millennium. Paluska, also known beneath the radio moniker of Six Mil Money Dan, designed and constructed a basement documenting studio considered “Flinstonia” because of its cave-like interior in north Cambridge that acted being a practice space for many musical incarnations from the three scholars’ rings (including Globe vs. the Traveling Saucers, Stentorian Effluvium, as well as the Sneaks). The trio indulged itself by playfully jumping from genre to genre (like Ween) without real feeling of path or care, and finally took in the Mellow Gold-era Beck strategy of merging hip-hop with various other random affects. They documented a two-song demonstration entitled The Makeout Track EP that included their jovial Beastie Males homage of loading lyrical silliness and a psychedelic guitar-based B-side, “SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL.” This fresh sound led to the materialization of a fresh project called the merchandise, a band that this boys cleverly promoted having a press packet that resembled a corporate and business brochure utilized for raising revenue. They began playing night clubs and capitalized on the zany picture by incorporating a reddish BC Rich rock acoustic guitar, crazy tiptoe marionette dance techniques, and unusual homemade synth pedals. In 2007 Kristofek discovered a position like a style consultant ensuring corporate and business products function correctly, but despite his challenging full-time work, he continued to try out shows by night time. Meanwhile, Paluska held occupied building robots for a full time income and adding to “fresh media” art displays you should definitely freaking on-stage. Early that 12 months they transformed their name to Electric powered Laser beam People (presumably because of misunderstandings over their name on the web) and self-released their 1st full-length album, STRAIGHT TALK WIRELESS for Raising Children, which again presented their “solitary,” “The Makeout Track,” and also other tunes about drunken neighbours and mysterious consumer electronics. Months later on, Kemp remaining the music group to pursue various other projects, leaving both remaining members in the hunt for a fresh drummer.
