Anyone else come across this guy? I heard a tune by him (Bubblicious) on the juke box at my local, thought this is exactly my sort of thing, and went to look him up on YouTube.

It's all (analogue)synthesizers and groovy beats, with hints of electro, dance, 80's influence and early computer game influence.

Bubblicious

I Can See You, Can You See Me?

and the beautiful HeartSong

There's more on YouTube, but I'm not going to stick them all up on here! smile


I'd love to know what y'all think, and especially if there are other groups/folk out there doing similar stuff. I love the sounds/timbres you can get out of old analogue synths!

Rex the Dog, yes, I am familar with his work.

He has done some nice remixes and good 12"s. Not quite got into his LP yet though.

How strange... i came across Rex The Dog for the first time at the weekend. I was on Amazon looking for interesting Electro material and found RTD, Digitalism, Vitalic and Boys Noize, all of which i rather like.

I downloaded the Rex The Dog Show album, Oi Oi Oi by Boys Noize, and Ok Cowboy and Flashmob by Vitalic. I think all are very good but especially RTD. I'm on a bit of a dance music revival at the moment so i'll be on the lookout for more over the next few days - if you like i'll let you know what i find in a similar vein to those mentioned.

Love this tune by him! It's the only one I know, mind.....

I'm not sure how old it is, think I first heard it around three years ago.
