Detroit Dirtbombs Techno Album?

Yep you heard right. The Dirtbombs are going to release a techno album. Oh no fans, this doesn't mean they aren't going to use all sorts of things you haven't heard on other albums like synths, drum machines and voice changers on every song. This just means the Dirtbombs are doing a techno album with their style and flash! Imagine Grooving but not to soul tunes and singles like on the radio but classic hits of the techno scene back in the day. Heh back in the day for me wasn't too long ago so maybe you older people will understand a bit more than myself. Maybe when Detroit was at the height of the techno scene. This album should and probably will give you nostalgia.

"Detroit garage rockers The Dirtbombs know how to pay a little homage. They did so with 2001′s Ultraglide in Black, covering soul numbers from the ’60s and ’70s. The band’s new album Party Store goes a different direction, but the concept sounds promising enough: live renditions of ’80s and ’90s Detroit techno.

The Dirtbombs will take on tracks by Cybotron, Derrick May, and Kevin Saunderson, among others. Detroit’s own Carl Craig chips in on the band’s cover of “Bug in the Bass Bin”, a Carl Craig original (as Innerzone Orchestra). Craig contributes some modular synthesizer programming to the 21-minute track.

So if you were listening to Guns N’ Roses in the ’80s and were too proud to give techno a chance, it’s never too late. The Dirtbombs are putting out Party Store [February 1st] on In the Red Records. Give their reinterpretation of “Sharevari” by A Number of Names below. The full tracklist is at the bottom. "
