MadMadMad continue in the vein of last single Spin Wave with new one Hey! – which is to say they come on like the lovechild of 80s New York dance-punkers ESG and 90s techno-leaning big beaters like Josh Wink and Chemical Brothers. Hey! offers thrills at practically the same tempo as its predecessor albeit with arguably with a more relentless and ‘disco’ bassline. However, you can’t say Spin Wave made musical use of what must be either actual internet dial-up sounds or manipulating traditional instruments to sound like dial-up sounds! Apparently the band take cues from the Dadaist art movement. They’re not shitting you. Hey! is the second track to be released from their Run EP, due in October.
