Nero’s Day at Disneyland ~ Grand Reopening

How long has hyperpop been around?  A lot longer than one might suspect.  Nero’s Day at Disneyland has been active for over two decades, while the last album proper from Lauren Bousfield’s project even predates our site.  Listening to 2005’s

Sunken Cages ~ Neram Pularumbol

Neram Pularumbol (“As The Dawn Breaks”) finds Sunken Cages pulling the rhythmic traditions of South India into an electronic vocabulary of bass, drones, and fractured club music. The album opens in celebratory, ebullient mode with “Kerala”, before “Elephant Dance” raises
