NEW DISCLOSURE: disclosure - moog for love EP (moog for love / boss / feel like i do)

disclosure surprised their fans today with the release of their latest EP 'moog for love' which features collaborations with dj eats everything and also sampling the legendary al green. more like extended groove players, the three tracks below are definitely more instrumental fare that don't necessarily fit into the structure of their long players. all good cause we are always excited to hear what the lawrence brothers have up their sleeves!

drums of death feat azealia banks and franklin fuentes - fierce
nothing like the original vocals of a house classic ("work it girlfriend") to inspire both azealia banks to throw down some verses, but a whole new arrangement thanks to the scottish dj. it's all very fun and celebratory of 90's extravaganza balls! work it bitches!

let the machines do the work - let me be the one
it's political house music yo! rather than doing a simple dance video, the guys of let the machines... decided to do a political video focusing on the current EDL (a right wing /anti islamic group, english defense league) party in the UK and put a surprising spin on it. shot at an actual rally, the video is pretty darn cool if you ask me (no spoilers on why i think so, just press play)
