Premiere: Listen to Ariel Black’s “Fragile Android” on The Umbrella New Double A-Side “Electric Official”

/in , , /by

Our world is an electric one, digital signals dictate our emotional impulses. Electronic music is now all music.

Can you feel the electricity?

Electric Official, the brand-new double A-Side from The Umbrella, is a celebration of this transition. Featuring two tracks composed of the most euphoric of bleeps and contagious of bloops.

Beginning with Ariel Black‘s breakbeat stomper, “Fragile Android”, the release is optimized to forgo any boot time, or login, and instead starts smashing buttons right from initiation. We are happy to be premiering this one exclusively for you today.

The process concludes with Man 2.0’s “Crack Talking”, the hypnotic and relentless anthem, conjuring the familiarity of a hacked Game Boy harboring a fatal virus, and the infectious vocal chanting of a artificially intelligent demented being.

The result is a short and sweet, and will cause your system to terminally overheat. You can find the release for purchase on Traxsource.

Track Listing:

A1 – Ariel Black – Fragile Android
A2 – Man2.0 – Crack Talking

In a land of limitless trust funds, where everyone’s a DJ and nobody pays their rent, two men stand alone, dripping not in gold, but in sex.

The Lust Fund is flush, and whether bull or bear, it grows steadily. The passion project of Tom Snares and Ariel Black, Lust Fund came about not of desire, but of necessity. After months of laborious nights and steamy rendezvouses, the first physical manifestation of their love has come to fruition…

This Split EP is the first release of Lust Fund on The Umbrella. Although a group effort, it contains two solo tracks from each member.
