RUTHLESS – IMA ROBOT – Directed by Noaz Deshe from Noaz Deshe on Vimeo.

Ima Robot is back. After releasing a slew of amazing EPs in the early 2000s, here they just disappeared. Members went on to form other groups like Turbotito, Guns’n’Bombs & even the now huge Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros. Ima Robot just surprised me by sending over their first single which reminds me a lot of Jane’s Addiction mixed up with a little dance rock elements. Watch the video up there then download the track below! The album comes out October 19th on Werewolf Heart Records

With the carefree summer days behind us, health system Chicago’s Midnight Conspiracy takes a turn to the dark side with this gritty remix of Gemini Club’s debut single “Ghost”. Taking the original’s disco-inspired strings and up-beat catchy vocals, anesthetist and subjecting it to a brutalizing treatment of distorted wobbling bass courtesy of Midnight Conspiracy, malady the song is transformed into a somber and withdrawn shadow of its former self. If Midnight Conspiracy’s summer was characterized by their feel-good italo-disco releases, this new remix may possibly be a preview of darker and heavier times ahead for the group this fall.

If you’re in Oklahoma City next week, drop by ROBOTIC on Wednesday to see Midnight Conspiracy play along with Innerpartysystem!
