Now to Electric Limosine...surely one of the best electro-glam bands in Australia today...if not anywhere. The song construction from these guys is always of a high standard. And one can easily tell that a lot of work and emphasis goes into this. The clever witty lyrics, the imposing vocoder melodies and rhythm - all top by infectious and memorable electrobeat. My favourite tracks are 'Come To My Party' and 'Remain Insane'. The throbbing bassline in the former, is so infectious that when all instruments come together - you find may find yourself moving about in a very strange manner...Well that's just me!
I seriously recommend you all check these great musicians out. 5 stars!

No words to understand what is better because there's no words, no bands better than Electric Limosine.
Congrats! Your music is really good.

After having seen these guys live, I can attest that they are definitely going to be big... very big...
Their on-stage personas are fantastic- this music is made for dancing and going all out, and this is not only indicated by the awesome costumes and antics of the band members, but by the crowd who simply couldn't help but be caught up in the fever!
It's easy to say that their music "sounds very 80s", but that's the idea! Yet, it doesn't sound like it's constructed from nothing but old 808 samples and synths... they have taken that sound and vibe, and brought it forward with modern edge and production values. They've managed to give it the essence of the 80s, but take away the cringe factor that so many other "80s revival" artists haven't managed to do! They've also shown that 80s-style music doesn't have to be all squelching bass and blips like ladytron or fischerspooner, but can combine other elements to come up with something altogether more satisfying. It just sounds so right!
I highly reccommend you download these tracks, and be on the lookout for a release, because this is a band that will EARN your admiration and respect!
I PITY THE FOOL WHO DOESN'T WORSHIP TO THE ELECTRIC LIMOSINE GROOVE

OMG! When I first heard this music I couldnt believe it. The sound is exactly what gets me going. The vocals, lyrics, the incredible sound I could listen to every day and not grow tired of as sometimes this music can do. I love the attitude in the vocals. EVerything was put together in such phenomenol form.
Why are they not signed? They deserve it the music is so great they gotta get a deal!!!
Love em!

Just want to tell the four of you that you're one of the best 'undiscovered' bands I've heard in a while. Impossible Satisfaction wins the prize for synth, but Blissful Intervention's dreamy quality is what really blew me away.
Keep being awesome!

This band are quite remarkable they have an encredibly unique electronic sound with soul to boot.A blend between the cardigans and LCD soundsystem. They are goundbrekers in a new indie electro genre that will have us all in a state of worship as soon as its picked up. As far as i know they are not signed to any record label and they are australian, look them up on google, you might even still be able to get, what will be a big hit, blissful Intervention, The song that has managed to claw all the way up my itunes play count thingy. if you like any of the following bands i assure you will love these guys; Mylo, Roysopp, Avalon, spiller, the go team, hot chip, phonix, death in Vagas, Le tigra. (p.s if your electronic limousine reading this please come to the UK, i will try and rally some suport and i know a venue where you would be very well recieved - keep me posted) Omar

I rarely get all hot-n-bothered over just any old new artist, but I am extremely excited about this set. I can easilly just lay back and let my mind go back to the 80"s when I was a teen. The female vocals remind me of souxsie and the banshies( which is a good thing). I am computer musician myself and do an retro electro sound in my style, and Electric Limousine are definitly my inspiration. Overall they have a fantastic sound that will definitly have staying POWER.

Electric Limosine are one of THE best electronic acts I have heard..let alone come across in our little town of Perth..
I first heard Electric Limosine driving in a friend's car, high, chasing acid..he played me Blissful Intervention..I was speechless..I couldn't believe that this song came from a local act..I had met Johnny a few weeks earlier and immediately wanted to get to know this amazing boy who had helped to create one of the most beautiful and haunting songs I had ever heard..Electric Limosine have been a number one crush ever since..
Johnny, Coco, Dandy and Jimmy have a chemistry I have never come across before in a band..each of them have their own unique style and each of them equally contribute to the sound..Johnny's dark sexy electro influences, Coco Pop's sweet voice and poignant lyrics, Dandy's evil industrial inspiration and Jimmy's rock roots..how many bands do you come across with four live vocalists and lyricists, who each sing their own tracks?
Electric Limosine are the future of live electronica..come to the party and enjoy the show!!
