This is an oldie. But a classic, was looking for this track for some time now.

Love this tune! playing on my radio show 92.1FM - 26/01

Turbo CD 033
ZZT
Partys Over Earth

Tiga and Zombie Nation have joined forces to create the most potent dance record of the year. Apocalyptic tension. Panic-fueled fundowns. 2012 is approaching. THE HEAT IS NOW  – PARTYS OVER EARTH!

Having both rocked remarkably long and prolific careers, the members of ZZT possess uncanny staying power in an industry where hype ends faster than it begins. Zombie Nation's production credentials are impeccable, and his reputation as a live performer has made him a permanent fixture on Europe's main stages. Meanwhile, Tiga's vocal hooks, sampling know-how-to, DJ sets and impressive work as a label boss have all kept him perched atop the electro-pyramid. These are two major players in the indie-dance world, but together, they are something else entirely.

ZZT first established themselves as Paradigm Wreckas back in 2007 with 'Lower State of Consciousness,' upping the ante on how 'crazy' a crazy club record needs to be. Dazed & Confused named it their 'Electronica Single of the Year,' while Rough Trade likened it to "hearing Da Funk for the first time… getting Justice to turn it inside out is a master stroke. Tune of the Year."

Granting no interviews, doing no remixes, and going so far as to phonetically transcribe the track's beats and bleeps as the only PR communication for the record ensured that it would live its life in the underground, gradually developing a cult of followers who eagerly awaited 2008's follow-up 'The Worm,' which Erol Alkan reworked to equally devastating effect. Flash-forward to 2010 and 'ZZAfrika' drops as the much-anticipated 100th release on Turbo Recordings, with a massive remix pack featuring Gesaffelstein, Afrojack, Julio Bashmore and more.

PARTYS OVER EARTH is relentless, uncompromising Combat Funk. If the new ZZT were a drug, it would be DZZMT. Not the stuff some loser shaman huffs behind the village gas station, but a new-school cut of Freebase Free-Bass that tears out your central nervous system and forces it to dance with the hottest elf you've ever seen.

The album has no weakness. Twelve tracks for End Times. Find a car. Find a ditch. Start a fire. THEN play this record. Don't even try to "share" it. Save your generosity for when you're reduced to eating Mayan Calendars to survive.

It's time to get real real, real fast: the Past is Not the Future. We're not trying to shit you around the block here. The singularity approaches. PARTYS OVER EARTH!

ZZT - THE WORM

Turbo Recordings was founded by Tiga in Montreal back in 1998. In addition to launching his own career, the label has been integral in the success of acts like Chromeo, Gesaffelstein, Duke Dumont and most recently, ANNA & Charlotte de Witte. Core talent includes ZZT (Tiga's collaboration with Zombie Nation), Jori Hulkkonen, BETON, Clouds, Harvard Bass, Pilo, Shaded, Dimitri Veimar and a host of new young producers in genres ranging from pure techno, electro, and house to pop. The list of artists who have released music on the label is a veritable 'who's who' of top-level talent spanning a broad musical range, and this, along with a commitment to beautiful design, has earned the label respect in the industry and a cult following among fans. 

“We started out singing into plastic bags and shipping them to stores as quickly as possible. Later, we discovered that vinyl sounds way better when delivered by kayak. I learned so much the first few years…Now, as I look towards the future, I can envision music for poor people, sonic odors for the hearing impaired, even MP3s for women....Vroom, sucka!” says Tiga, the lyrical lampsman lighting the way down Dance Avenue.
