Editor's review

Though Voom Voom's three collaborators would like to remain anonymous, we'll be bad and let you know the electronic music outfit is made up of Peter Kruder (of Kruder & Dorfmeister fame), Christian Prommer, and Roland Appel, and if you were disappointed as many were in Daft Punk's last effort", you might try a little Voom Voom on for size. If the former, Deep Dish, and M.A.N.D.Y. all got together and melded their musical brains, it would sound a lot like Voom Voom's debut record. Humorously, the name comes from a biographical childhood story of Kruder, who apparently thought as a child all music was made by accelerating motorcycles.

Biography

Bounce is Volume 2 in the series of singles which Voom Voom release from January 2006 to April 2006 on a monthly basis. As with its predecessor All I Need, the three tracks on the Bounce EP are synchronised on 125 BPM the tempo, in which the world?s club dancefloors swing. It's also the thread which Voom Voom have chosen for their debut album Peng Peng. Despite their constant tempo, the tracks on the Bounce EP shine with a fresh versatility. With its manic groove, the lead track sets the theme: Get those booties on the dancefloor! Consequently, the track on A1 follows the old Zapp slogan "More Bounce To the Ounce". Enthusiastically introduced by the shouts of a ladies yeahyeahyeah and a simple, open hi hat, Bounce instantly produces serious hip movement. Crowned by a fresh vocoder voice and mighty power chords, the track turns any kind of dancefloor move into a slick pose. Its rocking, yet funky, and pushes stress free forward with its warm chords. Surely this will rock many dancefloors. The B side continues the racy tempo: Fish?starts with a groovy beat and a funky bass, and then grows into a deep track, which follows a waveform dramaturgy. With his melancholic-happy vibe, the track will quite likely refine many late night hours. Last but not least, the rocker tune of the Bounce EP: Logan. A track that resembles an imaginary jam session of a modern New York disco punk band jamming with Kraftwerk in Larry Levan's Paradise Garage. Live drums, electronic bleeps and analogue synthesizer sounds create the seductive and sinister, yet unresistible atmosphere of Logan. Three times 125 BPM, on three phenomenal tracks: The Bounce EP by Voom Voom features a musical variety, which you won't on many club music productions today , not even in longplayer format. Get ready for upcoming Volume 3 of the Voom Voom single release series, there's more excitement to come!
