Don’t say I never gave you anything…
Here are a couple links to Looptron – a one-man electronic project out of London. He has a brand spankin’ new EP you might enjoy, called Obsolete Before You Start. Give these tracks a listen!

The songs are, and I quote, “full of electro goodness, synthesizer badness and morally vague, occasionally looped guitar.” I don’t know about you, but I really go for a morally vague guitar every now and then.
I’ve really enjoyed listening to his EP. And not just because his name just happens to be Neil. I can see the comparisons he gets to Depeche Mode, Tangerine Dream and Kraftwerk. Solid electronic songs with catchy melodies and lyrics that make me smile. What’s not to love?
I hear that he is also known to wear a brown pinstripe jazz suit (with pink lining). Who wouldn’t like to see that?
And speaking of seeing that, any music bloggers or music-types who are willing to give him a bit of press, Looptron is doing a sneak preview of his upcoming tour at Kentish Town, North London, on March 8. He’d love to see you there – just contact him at the links below regarding the showcase.
