Who Made Who

Who Made Who is one of the many great bands that I first heard on To Here Knows When. Not to totally kiss ass – but if To Here Knows When isn’t on your blog roll then you’re really missing out – simply one of the best.

Disco-punk really has little where else to go. James Murphy creates great tracks, but he hasn’t really done much different in the past few years. The height of it all is the success of LCD Soundsytem – major label deal, sold out club tour, Grammy nominations – Murphy might have painted himself into a corner. Who Made Who brought the emergency lights though… perhaps breathing much needed life into the soon-to-be-yesterday genre. If disco-punk needs direction then this might be it. Who Made Who adds in some much need pop and keeps it all under five minutes. Thank god.

Not to be out done, The Rapture have added their own spin on Who Made Who’s latest single, “Space For Rent.” Unlike the original, they’ve brought in some much needed crunchy synths that make it that much better for the dance floor.
