12" Std Weight 33RPM VINYL
No debut single could be more ‘current' than a prime cut of electronic pop immersed in the ever-present frustrations of having an empty wallet. Missing Out has a raw power that miraculously references every discerning facet of urban dance music, new and old, whilst maintaining a contrasting, and wholly masculine, uplifting vocal allure.

No debut single could be more ‘current' than a prime cut of electronic
pop immersed in the ever-present frustrations of having an empty wallet. Missing Out has a raw power that miraculously references every
discerning facet of urban dance music, new and old, whilst maintaining a
contrasting, and wholly masculine, uplifting vocal allure.
Elektralux combines
the bedroom production dreams of Bath-based duo Martin Badder and David Power,
who provide Drums and Keyboards respectively in the live-set, with dubby
delay-guitar from Damian Simes, sharp back-ups from MC Erl Grey and the
magnetism of front man Nik Walker's unique vocal.
As Walker cheekily explains, "trying to
impress a rich-girl while struggling with cut shifts on minimum wage is sadly
bloody hard, especially in last years trainers."
Elektralux's rudimentary vision has been brought to fruition by the
creative nouse and experience of producer Steve Osborne
who is best known for his collaboration with Oakenfold under the Perfecto
Records guise, along with his production credits with U2, The Happy Mondays,
and New Order, but to name a few.
Dub-step
remix assassin Slugabed, who has received support
from Mary Anne Hobbs on BBC Radio 1s Experimental Show, provides a formidable
B-Side in the form of a sub-bass drenched, broken beat remix of Missing
Out. You might also hear Slugabed's acclaimed bootleg remix of La
Roux's In For The Kill in dancehalls worldwide very soon indeed.
