VOOM VOOM - "Peng Peng"

Every now and then I’ll be going to work and all of a sudden I’ll be listening to something that turns my commute into more of a video game than pure drudgery. When you listen to VOOM VOOM’s latest release Peng Peng while commuting to work, the game is always kick ass and you always win. Yesterday when I heard “Bounce,” an especially jumpy track (also my favorite), I felt like Super Mario. The music was so overpowering that I jumped straight up with my right hand extended upwards and punched the roof of the EL. Put this album on while driving and you never run out of nitro boosts. Listen to this album while boxing with Mike Tyson and never run or miss an uppercut. If Peng Peng is playing, somehow, when you are running through a jungle while shooting swarming robotic enemies and evil men falling from trees, you will have unlimited lives and never run out of ammo. An electronic trio consisting of Peter Kruder, Christian Prommer and Roland Appel, VOOM VOOM has got the talent, the technique and a killer sense of style to match. God I wish my Nintendo still worked.
