What a year 2005 was for MOTOR. Not only did they unleash the Luftwaffe strafing techno of ‘Stuka Stunt’ on an unsuspecting public but the massive acid-throbber that is ‘Sweatbox’ took no prisoners in becoming one of the techno floor thrillers of last summer. Now as the MOTOR camp get ready to unleash their debut album, 'Klunk', another dancefloor bomb is set to detonate. The preceding single (and album opener) ‘Black Powder’ pulls Mr. Nô and Bryan Black back into the ring, only this time the gloves are off. MOTOR is totally un-compromised music that deliberately breaks any musical restrictions or sound barriers. Electronic music practising a punk ethic, MOTOR is unlike anything else: abrasive, strangely melodic, pulsing like a machine. A sound, which by no mistake, has put them in a class of their own.
On their follow up to the massive ‘Sweatbox’, the MOTOR duo keep up the dancefloor pressure with lead track ‘Black Powder’ building up from a maelstrom of bubbling synths before breaking into a droning avalanche of screeching dive bombers and rolling kick drums. On the flip, exclusive track ‘Punkture’ jacks straight into a more abrasive Chicago house vibe that gets shoulder charged by bulldozer sized bass and dark industrialised techno.
