If you ask me: "What have you been listening to lately?" I'd only have to tell you one thing:
Virgo Blaktro and the MovieDisco
I've been waiting for a sound like this for a looong time. It's like a New Disco type sound with a touch of funk in it. Add Felix's style into it, and you'll have an original sounding album that will take many by surprise.
Enough of my gibberish on his new album, here's a short excerpt from his myspace page, talking about the origins of the album:
"I said, it's going to be a sexy, black, electronic disco record and I'm gonna call it Virgo Blaktro & The Movie Disco. Why? 'Cos I'm a Virgo - August 25th - and back in the 70s they all used starsigns, and I recorded it at Movie Disco studios in Barcelona." Vowing to keep things simple, Felix limited his studio personnel to two: his Belgian producer, BC, and his attractive new vocalist, Zahna, an opera singer from Eastern Europe he met in Barcelona. "This is the first album I've recorded stress-free," he says. "This is the first album I've felt like an artist making it. Everything was flowing because it was just the three of us."
I've listened to the CD over and over and still can't get enough of it. I cannot wait until it finally drops on October 1-2 (worldwide)

I guess I'll end this off with a music vid of one of Felix's more famous hits, "Silver Screen Shower Scene"
(Yeah, I kinda wrote this in a rush to get new content on my blog. I'll be coming back with more stuff very soon)
